Thanks folks, I used a sigma 10-20 it also helps that the swans are well used to people so you can get very close to them. This is one of the swans at bray harbor. If you sit on the path they can be quite nosey and if you don't make any sudden movements they will stay close. I just held the camera low and hoped for the best. It still took an hour for the bird to relax.

I went out with a composition in mind for the Contrasts Assignment - but the mural I wanted is no longer available. Anyway, still ended up with some interesting shots. I ended up going for this one, which may be an unusual approach to Contrasts - but it makes perfect sense to me

Finally discovered why image stabilisation has been added to digital cameras;

Knew I should have read the chapter on how to hold a camera properly

Getting the Bonfire started.

Anyone any ideas as to how to improve this in photoshop? I just messed around with the lighting a bit, but feel more could be done to it despite the obvious noisiness. Any tips appreciated.

Tighter crop anyway.

some kite surfers at Dunmoran Strand, Sligo, yesterday evening:

not knowing the first thing about the sport i'm not sure if these are ''good'' kitesurfing shots or not. i don't think the waves were big enough for them to be doing any fancy flips..

A 70-odd year old pensioner blasting out the reggae/ska tunes at The Bernard Shaw. Amazing!

In relation to Brndn's post of the tractor:

Did you use a graduated filter here or is the sky edited?

Its a HDR, the sky was wicked looking anyway (to the naked eye), imo it needed a bit of cajoling to get the dynamic range of it the same as the naked eye (well maybe a bit ott

).

You're getting damn good at that HDR malarky!
Well done.

I just loved the booklet #uck is just lovely word and those girls standing next to it. They moved and I got even better snap in between them.

And about photography - I was not asking :pac:

Edit - would somebody stop this guy? I doubt...
