I like the indoors quite a lot. No. 2 is nice also, the lens glare is a tad distracting.

thanks for the feedback alex, yeh i wasnt too sure about the lens flare but after looking at it for a while i thought it looked ok.

Nathan, Indoors shot is quite interesting - I like. Outdoors, as Alex says, is spoilt by the lens flare. Perhaps a crop keeping the lower half without the flare. Cheers, Mick

The color contrast between the blossom and the sky in the second is very nice....... the shallow DOF and nicley colored desk make the top shot .

Great Job

The first pic is excellent - would be very useful in advertising

hey mick, does this one work better?

Posted: **Wed Sep 20, 2006 10:07 pm**

Looks OK. Would even look good rotated to portrait. Cheers, Mick

Nathan the first would be a ripper for Fred Hollows :wink:

I turned my monitor on edge and it seemed OK to me. :wink:

BTW what blossom is that - I can't work it out - the colour is stumping me. Did you use the 50 for these shots?

why? LOL

mick, its elm blossom, and im pretty sure i used the 18-55 kit lens for the second shot, i used another old 28mm nikkor prime that i got recently for the first.

here it is again...rotated

Sorry Nathan meant for the Fred Hollows Challenge which has been on the front page for the last 2 weeks "All things ordinary, look extraordinary". Nice donation to help 7 people out :wink:

Didn't mean it in a bad way :lol:

haha your right mate, yeh i did read that!
is it to late to enter it? do u know?

Posted: **Wed Sep 20, 2006 10:42 pm**

Thanks Nathan - now I've got another lens on the lust list.

That's about the third ripper shot I've seen with a 28mm recently. Cheers, Mick

yeh i love the 28! its just the right focal length, the 50 seems just not wide enough.

Nathan you can always try entering if Scott still has it open. The gallery link is in the first post
