very beautiful very poignant mike

Fantastic images and great composition. You certainly have got a 'creative eye' - Looks like I have still got a lot to learn - most especially about filter types. I am experimenting with a sheet of infrared cut filter acetate at the moment but am looking to try a few more optical filters...

Hi Ark nice to know that I am in good company modding the 602. As you said the 3mp is a bit of an issue but the mod is so easy and the results are prety decent for a PS camera and so far I am happy with the prints at A4. Have you any images shot on your camera - it would be nice to see more...
