Thanks for the pointer Robert.......... I just downloaded GIMP ....... That looks pretty good for a freebie. So i'll have aa go with that one. Cheers Peter

Hi All, I did post this in the computer section but realised I'd probably put it in the wrong place :bonk: I'm new to digital photography and so far I've only done some basic editing with Picassa ........ I've downloaded trial versions of Photoshop Elements and Paintshop Pro X3 and to...

Hi All, I'm new to digital photography and so far I've only done some basic editing with Picassa ........ I've downloaded trial versions of Photoshop Elements and Paintshop Pro X3 and to be honest they are both baffling. I am prety good on a computer generally but by all means an expert...

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did Stephen.

Hi Gary, This is the one you want. http://www.goingdigital.co.uk/photographycourses/slr-photography.php The closest venues to us is either Windsor (that's the one I did) or Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. Thanks for the compliment. Cheers Peter

The day with Lets get digital certainly gave me a lot of confidence and understanding. I haven't progressed on to a flashgun yet. But so far I'm happy. Took this one today. Cheers to All Peter

Hi All, I attended a "Lets Get digital" photo workshop on Saturday. The part one course aimed at getting your camera off of auto. THe focus was on using aperture priority. It was really good. The format of the workshop was well presented, easy to follow and well worth the £80 fee. I covered...

Well I guess I there tomorrow then. I don't look like a terrorist, well at least I don't think so.

Thanks guys. I just google the Braehead thing. "Prevention of terrorism" absolute pish! The world is going absolutely crazy. We went on a short holiday last year with my daughter, son in law and our grand-daughter. I found myself feeling quite self concious just photographing her having fun...

Hi All, I'm getting to grips a little and I'd like some critique on a few of my favourite photos please. good, bad or indifferent. I'm trying hard on that composing the photo thing. I took these back in the summer at Frensham Lake Sailing Club. Fuji Finepix S9500 - F/8 - 1/950 sec -...

Hi All, I think I cracked it............. Peter

Hi All, I'm new at this and learning everyday (mostly i'm learning that this isn't as easy as it looks). I'm trying to upload onto photobucket a few photos I took a few months back which I saved as "tiif" images. But photobuck doesn't seem to recognise them on my pc.:bonk: Can someone...

Now that is clever
