Thanks, Nik. Just checked out your blog - some fine images there, and you do tuition as well. Good man.
I love the tones, so maybe thinking it's time to use my red filter on something. They're all great, the first one is outstanding though, I love the sense of movement, and the birds being less blurry as they approach the centre really draws the eye in.
I bought loads of filters when I got my Voitlander VitoB, orange red yellow, etc. But never got around to using them. My new Zeiss Ikon Nettar takes same 32mm hood/filter so I should really make an effort since I've got loads of B&W medium format!
Yeah - the first one is really special. Love the ariel viewpoint, the motion and the 3D impression of the birds and water in the center. Outstanding, Rob!
Rob, your having us all on. You've been a photographer all your life and came here possessing no knowledge of this game, your a faux Outstanding again.
Well, Dan, I did go down to the crossroads, and sold my should to the devil in return for a photographer's eye. I hope that photographer doesn't want it back...
I was wondering were my 'should' had gone! I've been forced to use shall for the last couple of years, and living in the present tense has been trying I can tell you!
