Great image! Is that a real reflection or has it been created?

[DavidY]

Real reflection!!!!

1) Virtually no processing in Lightroom (straighten and slight crop to centralise), exported to Silver Efex Pro
2) High Structure/High Contrast preset
3) Export back in Lightroom as JPG

It was a very still night last night!!

Original Image (with free Liverpool light pollution!)

You have gone quiet mate! I told you the 760 didn't render colours as well as the 100d

You still happy with the 760d?

Hah - some would say that is a good thing! Yes I am happy with it. It's a wee bit bigger than I would like so if they ever bring out the 150D I would be very interested (according to rumour it was meant to be out 6 months ago!). I'm using mainly a 15-85 with it which again is great - sort of a crop version of a 24-105. Not very fast but good focal length and sharp.

I do keep fancying a Fuji XT-1 or maybe Sony A6000 but I'm not convinced on the lenses... I am also (finally!) suffering from a bit of gear buying/selling fatigue. Not sure If I could be bothered switching to a whole new system.

And... dare I whisper it... for the first time in 5 years since I took it up I might just be cooling off a bit on this lark - the thought of going out of an evening to get star trail shots or some other silliness is not quite as appealing as it used to be. Maybe just a passing phase of course - time will tell
