Never understood peoples love of photography seems painfully boring and people take credit for good photos when the camera is the only reason the picture looks good as for putting them in albums and trawling through them dull as...

truly spoken by someone who knows fcuk all about photography.

or not much else by the sound of it. Probably got one taste in music also doesnt like paintings (its only somebody splashing paint on a canvass) doesnt like sculpture (its only somebody chipping away at a bit of stone) doewsnt like football (its just grown men in shorts kicking a round object then kissing each other) etc. etc.

Mikey those photos are fantastic!

Just saw this on Facebook. How can anyone call photography boring with pictures like Mikeys and this one? Would they be willing to travel to the North pole and wait for the exact moment to take the photo?

Sunset at the North Pole. This is one of the rarest pictures that you will ever...

Thank you mate. Still learning all the time and decided I'd do some proper research on sunrise/sunset shots rather than trying to figure things out myself which i like to do. This time i think it payed of though.

Thanks again mate.

If i ever get a photo like that in my lifetime, i would die content.

I have just set it as a desk top background but it only appears in the centre. Not big enough to fill the whole screen.

What an incredible shot - even more so having learned that it was during the Super Moon that I (rather unsuccessfully) attempted to capture in March. Top job by whoever took that!

Oops sorry, the shoes also require an apology.

Thinking of selling my current Sony a330 + 18-55mm lens and treating myself to a new Sony a55.

Anyone know if Jessops buy old cameras off you or would I be better listing it on eBay?

[ajthefox]

Just got myself a Flickr, only a few ones on my new slr at the minute but will upload any old photos from my compact worth sharing and more from the slr when I get the time to go out and take some!

Here's a few favourites from my new slr, can't find out if there's a way to link them bigger due to the restrictions on Flickr but if you do want to see them properly they're at http://www.flickr.com/photos/andrewianjarman/

Love the Braggy one there, good job.

Just wondering how many of us here have the experience I had today (and indeed, often have) where you're driving along and you see something that would make a brilliant photo, but you haven't got your camera and even if you had, there was nowhere or no time to stop.
