What kind of a lens is on the camera you use, bleak? Just wondering.

Gorgeous photos

many thanks guys. the majority of my photos can be found at www.flickr.com/aeronphotography

spenner, i'm huge fan of your photographs. i've recently purchased a Canon EF-S 18-200mm lens ideal for everyday photography. what about yourself? a few of your photographs seem to have an almost fisheye feel to them...or is it a wide-angle panoramic lens? either way, the results are extremely unique

i've been experimenting a little with the tones in black and white photography. i'll post a few below...a lot more are on my flickr page!

Love those two, I like the depth of field in that second one. Makes me think of the fact that the pile of wood once belonged in the trees standing in the out of focus background.

and the 18-200mm lens should be a good companion for your camera, a good flexible range it'll give you. The lenses I own are the 18-55mm kit lens, 50mm f/1.4 (wish I had time to use it more, it's great! Took this shot with it: http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/ ... 4reela.jpg ), 100mm f/2.8 macro (lots of fun to play with, good for a lot of other things too, seeing as its a 100mm), and the 10-22mm wide angle lens, which is what I use for my panoramas. at 10mm it is almost fisheye like, and then by stitching multiple ones it gives me a unique looking panorama

This is the lens I'm saving for... not sure when I'll be able to afford it :s http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/6 ... 8L_IS.html <-- I had a dream I was taking photos with this lens last night, too o_O I need to start making money with my equipment, I'll take to some real estate agencies maybe. And if I were to make money doing that, I'd invest in a tilt shift lens.

/ramble... I get excited over photography gear.

thanks for the info man. will have to try and check out a wide angle lens at some point. spring is slowly arriving here in Wales...such an inspiring season for both photography and music personally...i'll be sure to post some images here. anyways, keep up the good. all the best for now

Bleak, your photography is orgasmic. And I mean that.

So glad to see there's a photography thread on this forum. I haven't gone through the whole thread, as my broadband is acting up at the moment, but what I've seen is very impressive.

I'm new to flickr, so if anybody with an account likes my pics feel free to add me

Here's what I managed to upload before my broadband started creaking:

@bleak. Those are real nice. I was out for a woodland walk myself the other day, and managed to take a few snaps.

I forgot about this thread for quite a while, but rediscovered it recently. I thought I would come here and mention that I have set myself up on Flickr. Take a look, if you feel like doing so: my screen name is lonelybinary, and my photostream link follows. Thanks.

Thank you

Added you as contact in flickr. Some nice shots in there.
