It's sure been hot today. Too hot for me to go out with my camera.

It really has been a scorcher hasn't it. My phone told me it was 27C but I bet it was in the 30's locally. I normally wouldn't go out snapping either in this heat but Bob the dog insists on going out and I haven't took many photos recently so I thought I'd take my beloved XE1 out with me - even though I had to take out water and treats for Bob. Glad of mirrorless cameras in that instance :)

I'm enjoying every minute of it! Out in the garden yesterday, bliss!!

Wait until it gets chilly again and it'll be my turn to complain lol!

I really enjoyed the market picture, with the lady perfectly timed to emerge into that pool of light, but this is cool, in my eyes... Seeing the world as a little one! Not that I've been taking pictures for sixty years or know the least bit about analysing art. Nonetheless, it feels good to me. :cool:

glad you liked! it is one my favorite top 10 from my trip to Myanmar.

I have also reuploaded a high quality version of the market, as the other one was a low res uploaded & compressed on facebook

on a side note, having a sense of aesthetics is not only about experience or ability to analyse, but you do have aesthetics, evident in most of your pics

I forgot to ask you on the bridge thread, are the b&w ones shot with a polarizing filter?

The market is even better large! I suspected there was heaps of detail in there and wasn't let down!

I have a couple of CPL's, but honestly, haven't used them for about 18 months now... I prefer a natural sky in my images, I can't stand over-saturated or artificial looking skies! Unless it's taking a sky to black for moodiness and feel/style in a B&W picture.

You asked for it - not my video though:

Probably worth mentioning that the Giants are a French company. Censorship and social boundaries are a little more flexible there.

Been a few plane shots around, this is hot of the press, if you happened to be in Cleethorpes Lincolnshire about 3 hrs ago, you would have seen these guys...and mighty impressive they were too :)

They flew over Parkhead for the opening of the Commonwealth Games. Didnt have a lens long enough to grab them though... GUTTED! :-(

This guy runs a local grill in my hometown. The background kind of throws off the perspective, because it's the square reflected in one of the shop windows. I didn't think about it when I took the shot, but I quite enjoy the effect.

I found myself in Mumbai for a day a few weeks ago, so I went down to a crossroads nearby and practiced some panning shots. While this isn't one of those, this little critter caught me pointing the camera in his direction and gave me a smile :)

Young Blackbird sunning himself

Can't do much about the furniture, what else could I do to improve this?

I didn't have much time to take the picture, and lost the bird as I tried to stealthily move in closer.

Cheers :)
