I like number 3...I've driven that bit of track and look forward to doing it again!

ETA - did you try getting up there in th Aston? If no, why not

I *JUST* made it up in the 4x4 - coming down again was more problematic!

Fantastic, as always. The 4th one is beautiful.

Sorry for a saddo techie question but I am in awe of your photography. You seem to get a near 3d quality that I, with my D80, just don't seem to reach. Is it the processing chip of the D2x? Using a tripod for everything? Or just magic fingers??!

And your website.. beautifully crafted, designed, quick. I have your site bookmarked on my toolbar and if I ever need inspiration, I just click on for a while!

[hawkaye]

Well that's very kind of you to say. Generally no tripod, and as I've mentioned a few times (cough), right place, right time.... although there was no light today, so they *really* are just snaps - in P mode at 400 ISO (and RAW as snow is a bugger to white balance).

Regarding your 3D - I'd just suggest that adding/adjusting 'highlights and shadows' are the key (NOT CONTRAST), then sharpen for web. That's all I really do.

Fact is, taking photos of Bearded Collies in the Highlands is about as easy a gig as you can get (provided they stand still - which they generally don't)

Nice photos mate. Was hoping for a bit of snow down here in Nottingham. We got 5 minutes worth.

[F355GTS]

Great Pics Steve, they make me want to be there again

[GolfGT_Girl]

very nice photos above

[Furyous]

Awesome pics as ever Steve.

However, anything with abit of snow and Charlie is going to look good !!


I keep seeing a tree silhouetted (sp) against the sky as I drive to work in the morning that if I got up early enough would be a match for you though !







Not.

[mattsayle]

Awesome Picures and a very cute dog

[ApexJimi]

There's a LOT of money on PH, and there's a LOT of people with VERY cool cars.

But no-one, bar no-one, consistently makes me go "lucky sod!" than you, Mr Carter!

Ace photo's, as ever

[pauljc]

Very impressive. Even Nessie came out for you in #6
