My wife at Ullswater.

Love the second shot, great timing! Am I mad in thinking the Brawn's were harder to capture than the other cars? The whiteness of the paintjob seemed to throw out my camera...or perhaps, actually, I am just mad.

A bright white car and black track can't help the metering, I had the same issue. I'll try and post a couple up tonight, managed to shoot 750 frames in about 4 hours

Spray and Pray!

Just a few from the weekend.

Damn catch fencing.

Yeah that fence was a bloody nightmare. Oh for a press pass...

That first shot is superb, the framing works so well with Lewis's hand gesture.

Thanks, I couldn't get a similar shot of Jensen for love nor money.

Behold the power of this fully armed and operational battle station nature

Went to see Dream in St Helen's the other day, took a couple of quick photo's

Also a quick macro of a couple of insects mating on a glass.

[And]

Nope

Assume he's talking about this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_(mixed_martial_arts)

Didn't think they had any UK shows though!

St. Helens? As in shite north west town off the east lancs? I grew up there. What's this dream thing?

This, is meant to be the North West's version of 'Angel of the North'

You are kidding? Or am I being whooshed?

Haha, no, I thought you were into your MMA and didn't look at the actual post.

I remember seeing that show about that sculpture. What was it like? I prefer it to their original idea which was a big lantern or something like that.

It is a little creepy if I am honest, but was a nice walk to get there. The time of day and the lighting made it difficult to get any real decent pics of the sculpture itself.

I took this photo at a campsite in Hereford last week.

I love being on Holiday! Lots of family photoshoots, errrr I mean excursions!

[mercenarri]

Those are lovely Pope, especially the last two.

Ta, the monkeys were tricky, mainly because there was naff all light and even though they were behind clear glass, most of it was smeared in shit.

I screwed up the beach shots... it was waaaay too bright and even though I stacked the filters to try and cut the light I stupidly managed to put an Orange tinted skylight filter on, meaning everything came out a reddish pinky mess..... might go back to that spot (Kimmeridge bay) closer to sunrise/sunset when the waves are a little bit more active... it was like a millpond yesterday.. and even with a 6 second exposure there was practically no movment at all...

Here another one..

Off to Cornwall camping soon though, so I should get a few more chance to try my hand at that kind of thing... although next time I think i'll take some knee pads....

All my Monkey world ones are here... http://www.flickr.com/photos/keetyuk/sets/72157620597450607/

Both those beach shots are awesome pope. I wouldn't change a thing.

That's what they looked like out of the camera...

[Agent L]

That's right up my street, level the horizon, add a little touch of blacks in photoshop and you've got another corker there.

[mercenarri]

What lens is that you used for the monkey shots, if you don't mind me asking? Seems like the kind of sharpness you can get with the 60mm/2.8 Micro.

[PeteJ]

Pope, I really like them. The orange tint gives an unreal look to them which works well. I agree perhaps a bit more wave action would help though.

King, they are really nice too! I need to get out on the golden hour more.

Got my brothers 10-20mm at the mo so trying to figure out what to use it on. Also got my silverstone shots printed in A4. Printing tip of the day - use Loxley Colour for everything

It's the canon 70-200 IS 2.8 with the * 1.4 extender...

[Sybernetix]

Some REALLY nice photos there king! Really nice.

And some pics today.... this thread is turning into my own personal Holiday photo journal

Blue Reef Aquarium in Pompey..... bloody hard to get anything of any worth thrugh the mixture of warped glass, water and fooking fast fish!

[T Pot]

Posted these in another thread, thought i'd stick em here though.

This is Hannahfield hall / lady field west. A closed down institute for disturbed children. (Closed in the early 80's)

[And]

Eerie.

[T Pot]

Scary thing was, without the camera flash, you couldnt see more than an inch infront of your face. And my big torch died so i was using a little maglight.
