Fantastic capture, the timing is perfect. I'm guessing you used burst mode, but that doesn't take anything away from this image.
Great shot.

Good work

Thats beautiful, the way the hedges zig-zag up the landscape. I think you could have cropped off the sky and some of the distant landsape, leaving the eye to come to rest on the two trees.
I still think its a breathtaking view as it is though.

Yep, they are hard indeed. Nice first attempt, if you notice you have the petals at the top in focus, whilst those at the bottom are out. The trick is to get enough light to allow really deep dof, maybe two or more flash heads are needed in some cases. Keep trying though, as I said a good start.

Yes and having the people in the image adds to the composition. Without these it would not have so much interest. Good work again.

Hi Roger, yes f5.6 is quite shallow dof on this lens by ther look of it, but I don't mind that.
I think the tones are really well distributed and I do like your composition, with the two diagonals created by the pipes.
Good work

And a happy Friday to you too. You have inspired me to get the macro lens aou and look around for some colour closeups. Haven't done that for a while.
Cheers

Hi Peter,
of the three I like this one, but thats because I prefer the artistic feel of duotone. The perspective is just perfect, and the little house just creeping into frame adds just the right amount of weight to keep it from being too balanced.
Great stuff

I wish I could do this with such regularity as you do. The construction and tone are just 'spot on'. Great Work, up there with the best of your portfolio.

Hi Roger, as the others have moted the canal/stream really does take the eye through the picture, whilst that tree gives it something solid to move around. Good composition.

Nice one Chris, I like butterfly farms, they have so many possibilities for photographers. Trouble is my kids have outgrown them nowadays. I'll just have to go alone.

Now thats what I call a scalectrix road, double white lines and perfect black tarmac. The trees also add to the feeling of a tunnel. I like this a lot, well done - where is it ?

Hi Roger,
Well I have to say I find this very good indeed. The composition is spot on, nothing to change here, and the tones are excellent too. I think the lens is a good addition to your collection.

Definitely needs a little more contrast to remove the overall white cast. Maybe try levels or curves to make the blacks really black. Also worth using de-matte or is it de-fringe in Photoshop CS to remove the white edges

Hi Roger,
This is the best of the three. Your viewpoint exagerates the fearsome nature of the 'lion', and Chris is right the texture does work very well here. I wouldn't have known you had corrected the verticals if you hadn't mentioned it.
Good work

Really lovely, the fence leads the eye upto the treen and then the light just captures the eye perfectly. One of your best.

Hi Roger,
I almost bought a widelux a few weeks ago, but the lure of a big white lens was too much.
I really do like these panoramas, and now with the colour enhancement I think you have a tremendous image here, one I would be proud to have in my collection.
Good work, and Happy Easter

Hi Chris,
Well I can't believe you've bought a second D70, thats just outragous ;-) Must admit I'd like a 20D to sit alongside my 10D, maybe someday.
I do like this image, very warm colours as usual. I'd maybe crop just a little off the bottom, iust to lose some of the heavyness. Apart from that it a good piece of work.
Happy Easter
Keith
