Took this on Saturday just after proposing to my girlfriend. Newcastle and the river Tyne showing the Sage, Millenium Bridge, Tyne Bridge and the Baltic

And this one is looking south down the Northumberland coastline:

Colour looks overkill on that image ray, or maybe my monitor is set up wrong :O

The colours are fairly saturated, but I wouldn't say it was too much, it's just Ray's processing style.

Alpherah, really crisp and detailed, what lens?

Which ones?
Macro ones were a Nikon 85mm 1.8 + Raynox 250 (im cheap!

)
Sunset was just the kit 18-55 lens
And waterfall's were a Sigma 70-300 (despite the bad reviews, its really sharp up to about 180mm and not bad for £39 second hand!)

Macro

Looks good that Raynox but a shame no 77mm size!

I'll have to sick with macro-modded 35-80mm for the time being

Works well on my 50mm as well (on a crop sensor at least).
You have to be really close though, think 30mm macro lens close.. so its not always ideal, but for how little it costs the results are well impressive

Did I mention that the 10-22mm lens is mind numbingly sharp wide open? This was 22mm f4.5. 100% crop of the right eye here.

Bah, you've just reminded me that I need to send my 12-24 off for calibration

Neil79 · 25 Jul 2011 at 20:40

This was a hard shot to do, lightning was bad

Stuff · 25 Jul 2011 at 20:48

Another LX5 test image... Pretty pleased with the sharpness! Pretty awesome for a compact! 100% crop on the right
