Cute!

It's a shame the OOF highlights have such bright rings (as opposed to being more solid) as it makes the foliage in the background look a bit busy - it might improve on stopping down or changing the subject distance.. but of course this was just a quick shot and you could crop it out anyway. Nice capture of the fountains though.

Obligatory arty flower shots from a trip to Chatsworth this weekend.

The first one is great, although I would consider cloning out the two blemishes on the flower, they spoil an otherwise beautifully silky shot.

Any chance of a 16:10 desktop-sized version please?

Seem to be taking a lot of panoramas lately, of varying success.





Need to go on some sort of photo-expedition soon!

1st pano is a bit meh, needs better lighting or something more interesting..
2nd is a little more interesting but something not quite right..

That's just how I feel looking at them though

2nd pano is a winner, could be great with a little tweak of curves

I completely agree. I remember liking the clouds in the 1st one. In retrospect I should've lowered the tripod, to get more of a sense of depth in. I'm not sure why I didn't focus on the stream on the 2nd one, as it is there's not really a central feature of either of the pics. Still, I plan on going on a mini photo-expedition this weekend, so will definitely keep in mind what I learned

Thanks, I considered nudging those out at first but if it's the case that they're actually quite distracting I'll have a fiddle with it later and clean it up a bit.

Heh well I actually like them! Might look too clean otherwise

If I need to then I edit them in the GIMP, yes - I'm already there for resizing anyway.
