Lethal weapons.

Thanks All.

Don't be mistaken, though, she's a little imp.

Our new kittens

Yes, chocolate box cuteness overload. Butter wouldn't melt, etc. I'll post another of the all black one in a mo, while my fingers are still sufficiently unshredded.

Not to everyone's taste, I know, but at least I'm capable of taking better pet shots than I was a year ago.

Trees The Magic Number

Cliched or not, it's very well done.

It smells a funny colour.

Thanks for the positive comments.

Al, you're definitely right there.

Bee

That is very nice indeed.

Threesome

Nice, but perhaps a little too symmetrical and stalks too parallel for my taste. That's just my preference though. I'd like to upload a mod with the right-hand cherry leaning to the left and spaced a bit further away maybe, but since I'm not an e2 member it won't let me download the original.

Spindleberries

Black fabric background (would have preferred some a bit less uniform) and natural daylight, mostly from the left.

Still life with pheasants

I wondered why it seemed odd when uploaded. CS5 got a bit confused about colour spaces.

Four of your five-a-day

Thanks Ken.

You're right, Alison, and I'm making a determined effort to be creative and improvise to improve my photography, rather than throw money around to no good effect. Incidentally, it was your portfolio that inspired me to have a go at a still life.

One for the technos

Look carefully at the free hand of the man holding the fork. In one of the two superimposed images the hand is, I'd say, two inches or so further from the fork handle than in the other. This is a double exposure. The D700 has a clearly documented multiple exposure function, by the way, including the ability to scale the exposures to result in a correctly exposed end result.

Hoverfly (Syrphus ribesii))

Beautifully strong image.

Angular velocity

Thanks Rach. I have to say it looks a lot better in full res. I've decided I need to break out of my usual stuff and do something a bit more adventurous -- that's what comes of working in a school with a strong art department, I suppose.

Where in Birmingham..?

These days not so much Arts & Crafts as Arts & Kraft.
