Are you shooting with a filter?
Your getting some lovely flare!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

No, but I was aware it was there, and angled accordingly. I have a filter on order...

Loving the choices in #4 - do I go left or right??

Which filter did you go for?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

If you go left, it winds round to join the right...

This one, hope it's OK: Hoya 49mm HMC Haze UV Screw in Filter: Amazon.co.uk: Camera & Photo

I like Hoya HMC filters - use them a lot - great quality and good price point

I have used a cheaper Tiffen 3-stop ND filter, which I found after I purchased it was not multi-coated, and I've been getting flare and lack of contract using it

Just ordered the Hoya HMC version last night on Amazon to rectify that problem.

Cost twice the price of the Tiffen, but I expect it to be worth it based on past experience.

Good to know.

Love those bursts of flare in the first two Rob. Really well implemented I think, especially the second - like oil on water! And that landscape view is beautifully balanced and interesting scene especially with the people - it brings to mind some of the paintings by David Inshaw (The David Inshaw website and on-line gallery: home page) and maybe the cover art of Nursery Cryme! I also really like the composition and elements in the last shot but it has a bit too much of a purple cast in the shadow tones of the paving and on the foliage to the left I think. Did that come through the PP?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

See what you mean with those David Inshaw paintings - very similar.

Missed the purple shadows in the last one. I just darkened it slightly in Levels, which often renders the colours a little richer, but I think the compression in Flickr has something to do with it. Can't be my fault, of course
