    You landscape is very nice. I agree with Nicola when he says about the guiding line
    it was not shot with a wide-angle was it ? It looks more like a midium tele...
    I used the Nikkor 18-200mm here, so you are right, it's not wideangle. And I cropped slightly as well in Gimp. I did use my wideangle in one of the gardens I visited while on holiday (Great Dixter, have some photographs in a different thread (English gardens)), the 12mm. It is a bit of a challenge to find something nice in the foreground to shoot big and then have that nice background wideangle effect.
    But here it didn't work for me really.

    Now on wideangles: in this photograph I was able to use the wideangle to my advantage I think. This is a shot that I made in Fairlight. We drove past it and the view immediately appealed to me because of the big poles that you see in the foreground.

    It is a pity that we didn't get a blue sky though, it would have been a better picture then I feel.

    I should have paid more attention when map reading; I thought Hatfield was in Sussex and the University of Sussex was in Hatfield.
    Brighton, a place I've passed many times when tramping in my lorry driving days, very mysterious area always hot.
    The only thing missing in this photo is a Spitfire.

    Perhaps Peter, you can apply a degradation filter and get some more detail from the sky.

    The grey gum, Edwin, is just fine
    The tree is all inside the frame and the composition is perfect.
    So are the colours and the details in the shadow areas. Excellent
    Thank you for posting here Edwin

    Perfect for a red fliter application and some selective work in both the tree branches and foreground grasses...

    Thank you Antonio, glad you like it.
    Will post more often if possible but the quality of the stuff here makes me hesitate sometimes.

    Just for you Chris, but I prefer the coloured composition. Let me know if this old gum tree has stopped screaming

    !

    I think, though, that I wish the end of the dof wasn't so sudden - i.e. the bottom left foreground wasn't quite so blurry.

    thanks katy, shot this with my 70~200 some were in the middle
    guess that's why the dof on the front and back looks different

    Re: Grey Gum.

    I hate to say it Chris, but I actually like this black & white version of my tree image, but not as much as the coloured one. I hope this edit meets with your approval.
    Cheers.......Edwin.
