#fail. Tower bridge. Damn. 10 years in london, and still the same slip of the tongue. :)

>>and the Reeperbahn I suppose hasnt changed much since I saw it 32 years ago
I don't think so (although I wouldn't know for sure). It's a unique place. Had the pleasure of living ON it for a few months earlier this year - the photo was taken from the apartment.


Thanks for the nice comments.

Thank you Paul and Sizifo for your encouraging comments. Paul, I didn't have to wait for the wave to break, because waves were breaking every instant due to incessant Northern winds. As for shutter lag, DP1 seems to be the slowest camera in that aspect.

Just opened an account in flickr.com and this is my first upload from there. Stranded jellyfish, courtesy DP1.

Osman,
thats a fantastic shot, with the tiny sunburst completing it.

PS I wait for waves to break, people to walk into the scene etc. In fact I often wave people through when they stay out of the scene to let me photograph. I then snap when they are in frame.

I guess you're right. Sometimes I think my shots are monotonous, if not lifeless. I worry I'll lose control if people step in my frame, because their movements are usually unpredictable. I'm not good at taking chances;)

The good thing is always that there are more chances. Either with or without people. And it of course worth trying to capture images with people.

It is good by the way to see this thread heating up with more photographs. The graveyard photograph is chilling Sizifo!

Wouter, the second shot with the hand on the bollard and the legs about to spring.

John, your photograph is so simple and yet so stunning and intriguing.

These photographs are from the 65th commemoration of the Operation Market Garden, the largest airborne operation of all time in an attempt to seizure bridges in the Netherlands in September 1944. After nine days of heavy fighting the plan to seizure all bridges failed and the lives of almost 3,000 young men from the UK, Canada, United States, and Poland lost their lives. Due to the optimistic planning of the Allied forces to war in Europe continued for another half year until it was ended in May of 1945.

Kweide, particularly like your first shot from Sicili, great detail, the legs under the table
and the boys eyes, lots going on there but not much drinking!

Wouter, impeccable quality. The GRDIII is working well. The second shot has great detail, well they all have !

More fun for me with my GX100
Heres one of my first pictures with the GX100, Innsbruck station, straight JPEG
with the GX100 balanced on someones parked bicycle.One of my first night shots with the GX100. It was pretty chilly.


Someones Granma in Seregno


All the best

Really cool to come back after a few days and see so many excellent photos. The cross on the window is very touching. The leaves, amazing how good the grd macro can look. And I really like the fourth one in the military series, with the heads cut off.

First off - Cold play was really Wet play , Will.
Nicely captured. What a great Dad you are, taking your boys despite the rain!:salute:

This one I took a few months back. Finally got round to looking at it.
I think I may have been worried what I would do to the picture which stopped
me.
There was a tremendous amount of reflected light which weakened the details.
I tweaked a lot with Rawtherapee, wanting to keep the glow at the heart
of the flower and as much detail as I could. Any tips on ways I can do it better?

heres the original jpeg straight from the camera (only resized).In the original DNG file there was a tremendous glow in the flower which was lost to an extent with the Ricoh JPEG file. I tried to keep it along with the details.
All tips gratefully (graciously?) accepted:talk028:
Oh GX100.
