What more could you want to while away a sunny Sunday afternoon?

Cute ass may I say.

Two shots of Manhattan, The first back in 2005 from the Staten Island ferry with a little compact camera, and the second from this year with a slightly bigger but still compact camera. The second shot could have been really good had it been in focus and had I got the top of the crane, but I still like it anyway:

I'm planning on getting a new camera for Christmas. One of those posh ones that you can change lenses on!

Kind regards
Derek

Some really good "posh" ones out there now for not toooo much splosh!

Went for a long, brooding walk today, mainly to see if there were any cool birds out at the nature reserve. I missed the pair of little egrets (no egrets, eh!) but in the end spent most of me time rubbing shoulders with ol' Cock Robin 'ere...

Awesome capture!

The photographer in me says, it should be looking into the shot rather than out, but screw that, this shot works excellently and gives it a real cheeky feeling.

I'd maybe perhaps lighten it ever so slightly as its very dark on my screen, but other than that I really like it.

Cheers! It's hard to know how other people's screens will show, although I actually darkened it a touch to lend some intimacy .

A pro photographer once commented to me how it can be interesting to leave the object of the subject's attention out of the shot, adds mystery to the picture. Well that's not how he put it but that's how I saw it!

hi cyclist33 ....hope you dont mind

 

[Cyclist33]

Nice one. Did you take out some red, too?

I still prefer mine as the lightened one is too busy

As we're doing Robins this one was taken at The Lost Gardens Of Heligan a few years ago, he was only there for a little while so the shot was a little hurried.

This is Bob, our local resident, I got him quite tame after a while, he'd come right up close. Didn't like the camera much though.

A couple of snaps that I took on my latest bike ride:

These were taken in The Dingle, Shrewsbury which was named best park in the country at the Britain In Bloom awards at the weekend. Shrewsbury won best town.
