Hi, I've recently come in to possession of a couple of hundred Magic Lantern slides (like these: http://images.denhams.com.s3.amazonaws.com/507/507lot220.jpg). I want to make some good quality scans of these but a normal scanner (I have a Canon CanoScan LiDE 210) will not work. The...

...and the fact that there is no human presence instills the images with the mood/atmosphere I was trying to convey...with the odd ball of picture 6, although as it's part of a grave I thought it would help add a certain tone to the 6 images...although I'm not sure how successful that was. As...

Thanks for the replies guys...some quite polar opposite opinions there but that's all fine. Breaker hit the nail on the head...the effect of abandonment and bleakness is the common thread...I've tried to keep the "human" factor out of the pictures...these are just objects.... Also, Breaker...

Ok, I have the DSLR area covered (Pentax K10D and a variety of lenses) and throughly enjoy taking photographs with it...however...if I'm away for a nice weekend with my other half I do not want to carry my SLR around with me, I want a point & shoot I can keep in my pocket. If I'm going to get a...

Congratulations to all the winners:clap:
