I love stuff like that .We get the kids school photos done in b/w or even sepia.Photos seem more thought provoking and dramatic when colour isn't the issue.Maybe that's because I have a poor eye for blue/green shades and therefore prefer stong red and purple images on the colour snaps and is probably also where my liking for the enhanced ones began.

But that is the challenge Phil, tis like fishing for Carp, Would be much easier to go to an over stocked lake with fair to middling sized fish, yes you will catch and you will catch lots but there isnt that challenge not like going to an old estate lake where there is a couple of huge fish, that you have sit and wait for, weeks at a time.... but when you do catch that fish its the best buzz ever and its the same with photography for me.. when I do get that shot I want its the best feeling!!
I Get you!For me being a keen gardener I prefer to grow my annuals from seed and am chuffed when I grow a nice specimen as opposed to going to the garden centre and buying off the shelf type of thing.

Yes it does, can't deny that, but it doesn't even represent what I saw with the naked eye
Yeah I get what you mean but isn't enhancement a large part of even pro photography? as you can wait an awful long time for that perfect shot.Fashion photos seem to be complete enhancement as they rarely bear any resemblance to the actual person who was snapped.

Here are two pictures,
The first one unedited other than cropping the second the brightness adjusted on it..
Yes the second one looks far more dramatic, but I have to say there was no challenge or satisfaction in producing the second one, it also looks nothing like the cloud did to the eye.
Enhancing pics is great fun I can't deny that, its nice to see what you could have got, but to me the real enjoyment of photography is seeing something you think would look good, and getting that shot. As I did with my lasses picture, she was just sat there looking all moody and grumpy because I wasn't taking any notice as I was mucking about with the camera, thought that would make a great shot, snap very happy louby!
No'2 stills looks great though Lou

Love the multiple palm tree sunset!

good morning and merry christmas to all
check this out, one to keep on eye on
Would this if it occured be observable on Earth?Obviously beyond my 8ins reflector's capability but more powerful scopes maybe?

Has anyone picked up on the story that they're releasing 20 beaver into Scotland?.The first since they were hunted to extinction 500 years ago.

Nice picture
They should put a webcam in the owl
By the look on its face someone's tried.

I just think that the word 'Ow'l is very funny in it's own right....Owl...it just has an amusing ring about it. Say it over and over again and you can't help but smile. Owl owl owly owly owl. :lol: Right that's me cheered up!
Edit - actually a friend of a friend got attacked by an Eagle Owl about a month ago, that cheered me up too!
So It pays your be your pal?

for 48 hours a week i work in a windowless environment, i commute to work in the dark too. so there are times where i see no daylight for sometimes 50 hours at a time, especially if i have not had a chance to get a break during the day. so any increase in sunshine hours is very welcome here
Are you a mole? :lol:

The polar bears will all need a new home soon. They could also help keep the wolf population under control.
I thought they all lived on glacier mints.They're better for controlling foxes anyway.
-
the "twit twoo" two owls defending there territory, they are basically telling each other to f**k off and stay away.
Ah right.Thanks for that.
-
Just about on subject.Could someone settle the my arguement.Two owls I believe are required for the t'wit t'woo call which is the male/female or does it vary?

Drove through the hills to Consett.18-00aprx. -3 degrees thick fog and patches of snow still lying.

The early 80's was fantastic here for the glorious white stuff! :lol:

Don`t bother releasing wolf back to the wild ,try releasing something that tastes goood and dosn`t need hours of plucking!!!!!!!
ohhh wild boar for starters !!!
Serious note !!!
To all of you who keep blaming farmers for protecting thier lively hoods then think how you would feel if all what you worked for gets distroyed every night , and it will take you a year to get that stock back again !!!!
Bet you would try to control what is ruining your income to!!!!!
leave country folk in the country and put the concrete clingons in the towns
Aye but STOXS it can be a moneyspinner too.Lord Bath keeps wolves and Lions and he's managing.I expect he's got the odd sheep also.From a 'Grandson of a farmer and rural type.'

Thankfully the GW lark is now on the way out. What's the next major disaster to pontificate about? Some sort of disease probrably. Bird flu has already had its time. So what will they come up with next?
It is great to see the props being kicked out from under the GW cult.Aliens or some such tripe to follow?

Mods/techies,
I think we should have a seasonal feel to this thread. Any chance of a snowy background with Santa making an appearance as we get closer to the day? :lol: :lol:
I wholeheartedly agree!festive backrounds and keep the thread open.It'll sort the candycanes from the humbugs

I wonder if penguins could survive hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
-
Buses?You're not seriously trying to tell me there's roads lead to Sacriston.I would've imagined Edward and Tubbs put paid to that.Wolves would definately not survive there ,they'd be eaten
-
inbreeding how very dare you ,i'm not from tow law grey wolf .
my grandma might have been born there but not me.
google TOW LAW and you'll see what i mean
Nowt wrong with Tow Law.Now Sacriston's a different matter!

I suppose they were here up untill very recently and without human persecution would've still been a naturalised species.I do feel however it would require constant monitoring more for wolfies sake than the local sheep.Anything that restores the natural balances of the UK countryside can't be a bad thing.It could be argued that creatures so high in the foodchain are a vital component of any balanced environment. But why stop there,following on from that the thought occurs would bears be sustainable?
asteroid for mars?
