Not that huge a coincidence – I pretty much shot every angle there was to the place one afternoon in late summer :) I’d have been more surprised if he found a shot I hadn’t gotten lol

Thanks, folks.. Next time, I’ll go for larger images, and less of them :)

Still love my camera as much as my firstborn, still very much learning how to use it, but enjoying the process!

Hi Biddy,

A few questions for you…

How much for the lens by itself?

Has it a hood/pouch?

Just to be sure:

– can it do f2.8 throughout the entire zoom range?
– Is it USM?

Thanks.

I have a AL1916WAs (Acer 19″ widescreen lcd monitor) which I’d part with for ?100 + p&p or meet in Sligo/Leitrim, if you’re interested? Registered post is about ?20 for a package that size/weight. Monitor is less than a year old, changing it because I got rid of the computer I used it with and replaced it with a laptop. There’s about a month left on the warranty.

Folks,

Thanks so much for taking the time to advise! Pippatee, love what you did to it, the colours are way more vibrant :)

Ifor and others, I do know what you mean about getting them to look at the camera, but they’re a lively pair – this had to be snapped immediately, because 99% of the time they are beating each other’s heads in, this was quite an unusual pose :) Getting someone to attack the photographer just might work, though :)

Mental with contrast? No… I actually prefer the second one! Two very lovely little ladies, nicely done! Can’t wait til my kiddy is old enough to pose :)

Thanks for the welcome, all! As for quackles, it was my imaginary friend’s name. I used to dance with a mop whose name was Quackles. I later killed it and stole the name :shock:

And thanks for the comment on the website, it’s still a work in progress, I’m sure I’ll be looking for plenty of advice on it before it’s finished :)
