'A Night Drive'

With DSLR securely strapped to the dashboard with duct tape, intervalometer set to take a six second shot every 30 seconds, at f11 and 17-85mm zoom set at around 20mm, the camera was prefocused and the LCD back display covered with a black scarf (to avoid the temptation to 'take a peek' whilst driving) and I set off for a 10 minute drive round the block.

This was one of the better shots.

A 'spooky' day in the Park

Whilst taking some photographs in a local park last week, under far from ideal conditions of lighting (and having what little light there was blocked by trees), I had set my camera on a tripod to photograph an avenue of autumnal trees when a cuclist pulled up beside me and said that he didn't want to ruin my shot. Thinking that he might add a point of focus to the shot I told him he could go on his way, forgeting the camera was set to f=11 and 1 sec exposure (ISO160). Below is the result!
