Haha. If you click through to the flickr link, the description I wrote out says that it wasn't as uncomfortable as all the characters in the show and the book make it out to be. I would be glad to use this as my regular post processing chair

It's got a fancy arm on it, but they overdid the minimalist design a bit. It has one switch hidden away underneath to start/stop the turntable, so to change between 45 and 33⅓ you have to lift the platter off and move the drive belt onto different gears.
That may be why it ended up in storage.
All three are good shots but IMHO MacRy takes the prize. The angle, the Audio Technica logo and e reflection in the grooves looks fantastic to me.
Well done guys and enjoy your walkdown melody lane.

AFB, another greatshot. Are you using a tripod and focussing rails here?
Fantastic detail. I really like this one.
Thanks. Using a tripod, but don't own any rails. Just a 60mm Macro lens and a R1C1 macro flash kit.
Another day, another flower. Not as happy with this one, but what do you think?

Another winner, but I prefer yesterday's.

What critter did she kill for the photo?
Because of the reflective base I'd be interested if this would work as a portrait with the child in both halves. It would depend on the size of you studio flooring of course.

More contrast please

Visited a few wineries today, not for the grog, but for the photographic exhibitions. This was taken from the carpark of the last one we visited.
Burnsall Grammar School: one of my favourite buildings in the Yorkshire Dales. Amazingly, it's still a school, 413 years after it was built... but for little kids (today being Saturday, I got this shot while the kids weren't around). They made buildings to last back then...

Love the heron - we just came back from a walk around Cliffe marshes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Kent_Marshes), where there are lots of herons, but no sightings today.
One of my attempts at a dominant colour photo - I thought the one I actually submitted was better though ...
Cheers

Thanks AFB. Yeah, I agree...I think the Egret's legs and feet add something. But I do like the Heron's colouring.
Yes a D7100. I normally use a D600 but needed the extra reach from the crop sensor for these guys as they stay well off shore. I was happy with the result and, for me, it emphasized the importance of the lens.
The only problem I had was that I was shooting in the early morning when the higher ISO noise handling difference between ff and crop is evident.

I agree with Alex about adding more contrast and maybe a more definite focus pointmaybe on the stamens? Good idea for a shot though, worth experimenting with.
