117 is a wall hanger. I really, really love it. The composition and colors are great! Only thing I can say is there is some very noticeable chromatic aberration near the top of the door. Other than that, awesome!

Thanks :D Yeah, I saw that too. Guess that is something else I need to learn to fix. I tell you, it is not enough just to take the shot :( So much to learn in PPíng .... I'm working on that tho ;)

You would think taking a shot of a burning match would be simple. Not for me....I took heaps of shots before I got 1 worthy

120/365.....the bridge across Cudgen Creek at Kingscliffe. It's a beautiful spot. We had lunch in the park. It was one of those days where nothing went right or felt right.

I know Roy...it was the perfect sky, even better in the OTHER direction :D

Have to say I have exactly the same sentiments.

Thanks Deezey & Lawrence :D

123/364......serenity

I had a lovely day and came away with a lovely scene for you all. Wish I could have taken all my gear with me but we went on the motorbike and I haven't yet worked out how to carry all my stuff (need a different bag maybe) along with picnic lunch etc etc

anyway......

I need to master removal of unwanted stuff so I can remove that lens flare. I did try on another shot with only limited success so didn't try on this one. Might give it another go later

Vixen that is a beautiful photo.
Its often good not to have all your gear so that you adapt with, and to, what you've got. You certainly did well here.

Should have thrown a lens hood in though :D

Always use your lens hood outside in the sun, plus it helps protect the front of the lens. When you're not using it, turn it around on the front of the camera so it won't take up extra room if you're limited for space in your bag.

To be honest I never use the lens hood because it is just too difficult to turn the polariser filter and take off/replace the lens cap. I shield any excess sun with my hat or hand if I can but it wasn't enough in this shot and so I thought it was the ideal time to have had the lens hood on ;) I always have them with me if I take my backpack with all my gear but hardly ever get them out.

I know a lot of people love polarizers, but outside of removing glare from water I don't know that I've ever bothered to use them. For me the hood is a more important piece of equipment.
