Great photos for Sunday viewing - afew

This week's blog will be "Photos As Usual", for anything new you'd like to delight us with.

And we will also have the usual "Ask the Expert" about anything you like, composition, technical things and so on.

Please try to keep to 600 pixels width and 100kb to 150kb max in file size and take a look at Wednesday Photography Blog No.2 for the technical bits on how to post.

Someone's new technology automatically limits width of photos shown to 600pixels. But it allows you to click and hold on the photos to see the larger version if the file is greater than 600 pixels in width.

Please do not click on post a comment but reply under one of the headers instead.

Have fun, and throw anything in, we want to see your photos!

Thanks, I'm finally getting the flash to do what I want it to do. Always helps to read the manual if there's more than 50 pages in it.

Very nice portrait

Is that a new ballpoint pen.

Photos as Usual A walk in the woods (4.00 / 10)

Took the coonhound for a walk this afternoon and snapped a few pics.

Fungus, but kind I don't know

end of a rotting tree trunk - interesting maybe?

a 19th century abandoned lead mine in the middle of a coal field.

Apologies if photos are to "heavy". Maybe someone can explain in words of one syllable how to reduce the bytes when transferring from Flickr.

Re: Photos as Usual (4.00 / 2)

That was the arrival of the storm. Then everything became grey and it rained heavily during eight hours or more. It was great!

Unusually wet Nice (none / 0)

l really like the sense of motion in the second one...looks intentional. or maybe you've got the shakes from the wet.

Re: Unusually wet Nice (none / 0)

Maybe shakes from the wine with a meal with some mates :-) - also keen photographers - one very happy to see rain after about three months and he loves reflection. He almost wanted us to dine in the rain ! :-) It's a mix of flash and available light - which was pretty low, so blurred.

Re: Photos as Usual (none / 0)

Excellent photos as usual - maybe 34 detracts a bit from the best - and might intimidate other potential contributors :-)
