And I have just spotted more dust on the filter/lens. Ad astra per aspera
I love the detail of the sand here. Taken with my macro lens. Ad astra per aspera
You can see a touch of blue which is more profound in my other moon photos. I will post some in the technical section. I told Bush; don't play chess with the freakin' Russians.

I'm not personally a fan of the protective lens filter: we realised a long time ago that we were putting relatively cheap bits of glass in front of our lenses for no obvious reason except to induce extra flare and increase the margins of the people selling us lenses. We've never lost either a filter or a lens.

Taken with a Sony Ericsson k750i mobile phone. Drew was being rude about phone cameras during the week: they're not all terrible. Though the one in my Blackberry Pearl is - mostly because the interface was designed by someone who has never used a camera at all.
Mobile phone cameras are almost all much better than any camera that was available until the 1920s or so. Their limits are not an excuse for not being able to take photos - you just need to learn to work within them.
Now, that's been edited and massaged in Aperture - I cropped it, alter the exposure a bit and did noise removal using Noise Ninja, but that's the sort of thing I do to pictures from high end cameras as well.
I swear these sheep were chasing me up the road.
Ad astra per aspera
ie you can't see any at all. It was freezing. And so windy. Is there anything that can be done to make the colours richer? Ad astra per aspera
The colours of the brecon beacons when the sun shines on the ground is just stunning and overcast days lack that richness. Ad astra per aspera
