In 1759, the Duke of Bridgewater built a canal using drainage water from his coal mines to take coal 4 miles to Manchester. This cheap and easy method of transportation was quickly seized upon by owners of coalfields in the Black Country close to Birmingham. In 1767, British Parliament passed...

actually, i only use a 24-120VR for most of my shots. ;) it's not so much the equipment, it's how familiar you are with your equipment, and how well you employ them. i think you should work with the 70-300G first, but you need a 18-70DX maybe. so that you have a wider angle lens. plus the...

i like the concept! nice even light. composition wise ai think it might be more oppressive if you pushed the b&w into the corner. Also, maybe if you had shallower DOF? please allow me to try some DI for this picture.

let's go somewhere far far from CP. i'm still managing to stay away from the BBB virus. so well, that CP people don't know me liao! ;)

wah espn 大哥 organise ar.... if i can i'll come along and learn ;p with my cheap old camera. :D but depends on my schedule, on course now leh.

i like 002, but i find that most of your pics lack some contrast to give it the added punch. but that's my personal preference for contrasty images.

hi wildstallion, joey. lenses are seldom sharp when wide open. perhaps you could try to stop down to f/8 or so. or perhaps it's technique? maybe if you could show some samples, the more experienced photographers in this forum can help to dissect them and explain why. cheers.

joey, i'm by no means the authority (espn, shhh.), but i think i can help a little. when i shoot events, i try to keep my iso around 400-800 and my shutter speed at 1/focal length. with VR, less. but for you, the 70-300G needs at least 1/150, ideally 1/300. especially if you're far away from...

haha. well. you come with photos...:confused: i wonder what's the colorful stuff on the geek photography. ;) witness: i am? 128. you?

yah, now your D100x2 become D200... mine still D100!

right... yup haven't been posting or monitoring the forums much since i joined the army. good to see some people still remember me!

espn: what ghost? gooseberry: i know adobeRGB has a wider gamut, i didn't say it is 'out-of-gamut'. but good job on the clarification!

that is correct. the gamut for the other 2 profiles cannot handle the color. shoot in RAW for detail, not for color. and use the appropriate color space to handle the colors. cheers!

Brilliant! Stunning.
