Merlin5, superb. You have distinctive style. Following also

Ah yeah Phil, I just saw you're now following me on my flickr page. I feel I've learned so much compared to the processing and composition of my early photos since starting this hobby last year. Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!

Taken tonight, note the Heron on the left. Spent a while watching him fish.

Oof, gorgeous sky and sun and distant land, very well captured Phil.

Thanks so much! Taken with my new 55-200, which I'm really liking. The detail it captures is awesome.

A couple of images taken in Tresaith on the West Wales coast. Not the best weather but made the most of it.

Lovely! Is that stacked or something? top section, lower section etc? That's the effect I want to achieve. #

Might not even be that depending on conditions. I have had similar with 10 seconds in dark skies areas

The image is a focus stack of 2 images 1 for the foreground and 1 for the background both 15 seconds.

Nice. I saw those on Google and wanted to go photograph them but apart from being so far away from me, you need a boatride to get close enough for photos, right?

Yeah, I got a boat from Whitstable but you can also get one from Shoeburyness, and you get about 50ft or so from them.

They look really good, kinda eerie as well, but worth an hour or so on a boat. Just take some kind of covering to protect you and the camera from the spray/waves - I got back soaking

Couple more images from the same beach in South Wales. Been trying to capture the bioluminescent plankton but this location seems to only be very small amounts and almost full moon on this trip.

Did my first proper go at long exposures. They seem ok.

Nice, turned out great. Did you just come back from there? How funny because I've just got home from taking similar long exposure shots! I started off at the dolphin and girl fountain at St Katharine Docks just below the bridge. I was on the other side of the bridge to you.
