Very nice. See what good can come from lurking around in the bushes at night?
Moody shot of the Boat House at Rouken Glen park yesterday. Thought it was lovely to see the reflection in such low light.
More please!
Got a tip for us?

More please!
Ha ha ha... I was amazed how it came out. Intentionally went out late in the day. Well chuffed. Thank you.
Not sure you should be driving and taking photo's at the same time!!
especially in the wet!

You're the 2nd person to mention this - no, I was not driving, and took the photo leaning over from the middle of the back seat.

I saw a women driving the other day and putting on her makeup at the same time when I was driving to work.
I was so shocked I dropped my razor into my cornflakes!
Another pic of the kiddo. When he is done examining something, he often holds it aloft and shouts "B'DAAH" with much authority. In context it seems to mean something like "Behold, I have examined this and offer it up to you as something that is now known/approved by me". Interestingly there is a verb in classical Greek, bdeo, which means to "break wind." Probably not related, but I sometimes wonder...

I was in North London last week and saw a guy driving along whilst brushing his teeth. Middle of the day.... just brushing his teeth.

Dont know about anyone else but I think it is awesome getting to see the little ones grow on here. Of course, fast forward 10 years and we are in for it!
So inside Worcester cathedral there is a model of well Worcester cathedral. Most of it is behind plastic, but I got this shot of the tower.

Like the lighting and the contrast on this one but maybe a wee shuffle to the right to reduce the amount of space taken by the wall and get a slightly less acute angle on the repeating pattern of the front wall to get more detail on it? Nice though. I like the tonality.
My first photograph of 2016, bubbles frozen in the surface of a high alpine lake in the Julian Alps. The story of this photo is in the caption of the post on my Facebook page. (Click the photo to enlarge it...I posted a large size because it has lots of details!)
By the way, for those of you who asked for details about the landscape photography conference that I mentioned (I'm one of the five speakers at it): the official announcement is now out. You can download the PDF brochure ("programme") here: LINK. (The PDF link is about halfway down the page.) I hope to see some of you there!

I see what you mean, but if you knew how hard it was raining at the time (I was on my way back to the car from the fountain shot above) you would understand. This was just a quick shot that turned out better than expected - I will be returning to the scene to see what else I can find.

I have a picture here from a friend which I love. He took time to explain how he stood for hours in the cold icy wind and rain waiting for the moment to press the shutter... frozen to the bone, bored, p*ssed off... now every time I look at it I feel bad for him. Please don't spoil the magic on yours
I don't get the gimbal on monopod idea either. A monopod itself can be moved quite freely. The advantage of a gimbal on a tripod is that you can have everything ready to go, camera settings in place, lens pointed in the right direction and then relax. I've spent many hours in the cold icy wind and rain this way waiting for the moment to press the shutter.

See above Ken and don't feel bad for him if he got the shot...it makes a successful capture that much sweeter.
I was talking to someone on the messaging here recently regarding macro photography and it whetted my appetite to go have a play with the Canon FD 50mm f3.5 Macro I have had sat in my lens cupboard. Criticism welcome.
