Ok, managed to get out in some nice weather today and take some snaps for the blog. I've also been keeping an eye out for local landscape photo ops for a small competition that is running. It's basically just a little thing comp to find photos to put in a calendar but it would be pretty cool if I can find something worthy of sending in. Unfortunately I was expecting a delivery which hasn't turned up yet to help me take some shots for it :(. I've ordered a set of Cokin pro neutral density graduated filters (what a mouthful!.........that's what she said (sorry)) which I can't wait to have a go with. Anyway here's what I managed:
I just love this old, rusted sign up in the mountains. I realised once I'd got back that I had left my ISO at 800 all day.... Still there doesn't seem to be too much noise, just have to make sure I check what settings I'm shooting with next time! ISO 800, 18 mm, f/20, 1/320 sec.

Shot a small reservoir with incredibly blue water, I did a bit of adjusting in lightroom but nothing to the colour of the water. The reservoir itself seems to be fairly abandoned being surrounded by derelict buildings and extensive warning signs (there were about 15 reasons on one sign not to go near the water!). ISO 800(....), 18 mm, f.20, 1/500 sec.

Ok, this one was actually taken at a party the other night, I actually took loads of pictures of the fire. There's something about it that I just find fascinating. This was my favourite of the bunch though with a fast shutter speed that really froze the fire along with the sparks above it. ISO 200, 18 mm, f/3.5, 1/500 sec.
