i can so identify with the 'problems' you had today ... it happens so much that you see something you want to photograph but its a case of .. sheeeeeeesh .. i've gotta remove the lens cap, check the iso, make sure the settings are ok with exposure etc .. by which time wotever you wanted to photograph is gone !!! ... i usually shoot totally manual, but sometimes aperture priority would'v been better for speed .. oh well, live and learn eh? ..
this scene that you've photographed looks so much like where i live altho a lot more rainforesty .. if we had HEAPS more rain the firetrail i walk on could look like this in parts ... those trees look absolutely beautiful with their dark dark trunks and the vibrant greens .. you must get so many fantastic photographs along this track .. and if its anything like the firetrail i walk on, it would be different every single day ... a bit like different moods ... i love smart sharpen too .. i dont use USM at all now .. :)

i love the distortion in this image .. the slightly muted colours, except for the glow of the lights, work really well .. the sky with its silvery glow and those beautiful understated clouds is gorgeous .. a fantastic photograph ... :)

hey jon .. we saw on the news last night that you've had the most incredible floods ... i was under the impression that you lived south of london and that the flooding was north ... but i thought of you when i heard the news and hoped that you guys are ok ...
OMG .. thankyou for writing that note on my hardware shop about the dentist, coz i'm just about to go out and take photographs for the rhythm challenge, and I'D FORGOTTEN TO PHONE THE DENTIST AND CANCEL ... its 9.30 monday morning here right now .. fortunately he's very popular and he's got ppl waiting for cancellations all the time .. thank you .. !! .. wot a buggar it i'd remembered while i was walking on the firetrail, it would have totally put me off my photography !!! .. :)
