haha, I noticed that so went back and edited it.

If it helps if you pull up the emoji list the first one (usually the smiley) has been swapped out.
 
Bit more light from the new forest, driving between sites at work again... ;)
As a general rule I always think that if the light itself is the subject, or at least a very strong influence on the image, then mono is the way... But I still kinda like the colour versions... :)

I know what you mean, but in these instances the colour adds to the image. Nice work!

No 1 is a cracker, lovely light on the wet leaves adds a dimension [emoji106]

I'm a sucker for mono work Sir, but in this case I prefer the colour. #1 is a "Cracker".(y)

All three are gorgeous! And I would be equally torn about colour vs black and white. I think I'd lean towards colour here, but there's no denying the monochrome is a strong image...
 
Well I believe it's about time I gave my Xpro1 up. I love it probably more than any other camera BUT it just doesn't get used and the XPro2 gets the love instead. XE1 is suffering the same fate as is the XT1 but an XT2 shall be replacing it I feel! Back to two bodies for different types of photography so less kit to drag around which is ultimately key!

I think that's a good way forward :)
 
2017 Fuji GAS attack is looming.
Is this a good price?

Fujinon 90mm f2.0 £674.10, with the £80 cash back it'll effectively end up costing me £594.10. :o

That sounds like a good formula for a successful result Sir.(y)

Sounds good to me, where is that from ?
 
I'm in deep shock, Currys being competitve !!! I recently sold my 90mm for £549 on ebay so sounds a decent price to me, mine was mint hardly used but that seems to be the going rate so another £45 for a minty fresh new one sounds ok ?

Quality work stuff another vote for the colour one.

Too horrid out in Oxford today even for me! Here's another one from Christ Church Meadows a few days ago. An exercise in removing cranes from the skyline, among other things... Happy New Year!


As above, so below...Happy New Year to all!

Very nice Dave, there seems more cranes on the skyline every day mate.
