Here's a quicky I took today, I love the colours. I'm going to spend some time on it later and make a nice desktop from it



I think some filters would have come in useful for it, I just used the standard 18-55 kit lens on the 20d and crossed my fingers the sky stayed blue

Does look nice! Maybe a polariser would have helped with the sky but I wouldn't lose any sleep over it, what you have is great.

A few from this weekend. Lots of colours... some of them black.

How depressingly good

Not taking anything away from the shooter, but which equipment did you use to catch the above photo, and what ungodly hour did you shoot it?

As for the hour - well I'm usually up snapping early, but this was at a very civilised 09.45, south end of Crummock Water.

Stuff - Nikon D2X with AF-S Nikkor 17 - 55 1:2.8 G ED DX (stuck out of a land rover window using door frame as support... hey, I was listening to the Archers!).

Wow, above pictures are really great...
I took this one with a compact camera (Yakumo thingy)


With what kind of lens was the one of the moon taken?

They are lovely pictures. Reminded me it's about time I took another break north of the border. Been to the Borders twice and absolutely loved it!

sorry phil If it's any consolation I've only seen one blue sky like wot you guys regularly get down there in about 6 weeks. As I KEEP banging on about, photography is 90% WHERE and WHEN you are! I happen to be in the right place 'cos my work is 'non-geographical'.

Moon was taken with the 80 - 400 ED VR (VR switched off) on a tripod, spot metering 125th sec at 5.6 on a timer to reduce camera shake. The sky was blue at the time and the moon not bright. I used PS to change it to B&W and sharpen.
