    Fairground reflections

    Something a a little different and cropped from the original, fairground ride reflected in a puddle after a heavy downpour. Shot with Nikon D600 and 24-85mm lens at f5.6, 1/80th if I remember correctly. What do do you think of the composition and colours? I’m really pleased with the end result...

    Upgrade from D5100?

    Hi all, I've been shooting with a D5100 for a couple of years now and very pleased with it. Ive taken some great shots however having recently had a play with a d3300 I was amazed by the high iso performance and lack of noise on longer exposures even with NR disabled. I do a lot of low light...

    Just bought a d5100

    Hi from the d3100 lounge... Just bought a used d5100 body for a cracking price as I was hitting a few limitations with the d3100. First impressions are very favourable, many more custom settings, faster, better LCD and seems so much sharper with the 35mm prime :) Anyhow, just wanted to say hi...

    Shutter release without AF confirm?

    Hi all, Not very active on here so I do apologies for that! I've a quick question regarding my D3100 that I hope you can help with. I have taken to using back button focus (with the AE-AF button assigned as AF-On) and find this great 99% of the time. That other 1% of the time is usually low...

I'm from the Northeast of England and started dabbling with photography around a year ago whilst working in Texas, at the time using a Fujifilm S3300 bridge camera. I quickly began to reach limitations...
