Nope, I only did these real quick, my first attempts were what you see my latter ones weren't so good.

I'll try some lower angle ones at somepoint.

Nick- love the ladybird!

Went out tonight to try some light trails but there wasn't much traffic about and judging by some of my results, need to do a bit more reading.

Walking back home though I tested the tilt-shift effect on the camera and was quite happy with the result. Shall be experimenting with this a bit more I think...

Well, I first saw it on YouTube about a year ago - some dude had shot a whole days worth of shots and did a stop motion in New York, making the whole place look like a model village going through a day's cycle. There is a whole technique to it....but to tell you the truth, I just took the shot and selected an effect on the camera, so mine is all post production. Obviously works best if you are up high and looking down onto your subject.

We found a nest of slow worms in our back garden.  My girls were allowed to hold one very gently:





Shot using the 70-300 as an experiment instead of the 50mm prime.  Can't decide which I prefer for this sort of thing yet.

They're awesome. I'm sat at home waiting for a new mattress to arrive so been out in the garden and took a few shots.
