Nice Photos.

Posted by: u5227470736789439 on 27 February 2008

Most of us have taken one or two nice photos.

Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.



Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.

Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:



I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

Jamie, as long as you call the dog by its name (photography) you don't have to worry about the other titles..

But is it proper to shoot plants with a standard 50mm lens?

I am not sure at all, dayjay. This plant was clearly blushing when realizing that I was capturing it without the use of a proper macro lens..

Jamie, as long as you call the dog by its name (photography) you don't have to worry about the other titles..

In other words, Jamie, I like your picture but I couldn't like it more if it was designated 'art' or less if it wasn't considered 'art'. Images speak for themselves and that's suffice for me.

 

Dayjay, it was a joke inpired by Jamie's question 'but is it?'. Personally, I think that the 50mm lens is the most appropriate one of all, giving you through the viewfinder the exact perspective your naked eyes see. If I had to live with just one lens the 'normal' focal length would be my clear choice.

 

Guys, have a good Sunday.

I agree with all of that.

If anyone saw Guy Martin's programme about the restoration of the Mk.1 Spitfire N3200, this is that very same...

Good programme although it looked like a re-creation rather than a restoration. The guy who owned the wreck must have spent a few quid on it. Still prefer the MK IX though.

Guy at our place (he's called Phil) has a Hurricane up for sale that he has just finished restoring. (I'm not sure when a restoration becomes a re-creation). Its taken him several years. Asking price is well over a million.

When I travel I usually take the 50mm lens with me, not worrying too much about what might fit or not in the viewfinder. As always, there is no crop involved.

You have a very distinctive photographic eye. Geometric forms, color, light, and angles. I could easily (I think!) pick your photos out in a crowd. Great stuff.
