CRM's footprint is all over Glasgow - amazing how so much of his style is still relatively fresh. The Queen's Cross church is also worth a visit (or was last time I was there...)

I agree. There are clues everywhere and it is surprising how it is so timeless. I love the big high backed chairs in the Music room.

I'd assumed you'd used a tripod. Must have steady hands.
A sure sign of my clean-living ways...or decent IS on the Canon 70-300L lens methinks. Can regularly get sharp shots at 1/15th at around 100mm with that lens, obviously decreasing frequency of success at longer lengths.

One of the things to watch out for in dog photography is depth of field. It is essential to have the eyes AND the tip of the nose 'leather' in focus. Not always easy to achieve, especially with some of those long muzzles... the Borzois are a nightmare.

I really like the border collies. Smart and handsome.

Thanks! He didn't want to sit still even for a moment, had to act quickly :D

My first attempt with the SMC Macro Takumar, not brilliant but still mainly in focus. I wanted to do some bee bothering but they would not stay still long enough, with me rocking gently back and forth like a strange person.
Each of these blossoms is only 10mm across, and the photo was taken at the minimum focus distance of 45cm, 1/250 @ f/8. Think I need to try f/11 - 16 to get more DOF.

I was experimenting a bit with long time exposures, and that's one of the better results:

I'm not yet completely content with the outcome, especially since there was far less traffic than I had hoped for. I might have to try another time.
