Welcome on board--- Yes the photo was taken standing at the stern of a moving boat.The area is a long way from being tropical, really quite the opposite, it is a Fjord Land and not too far away...

Pelican resting at our local beach.

You'll even be able to go into the jungles of Indonesia now without having to worry about shooting in the rain. I mainly use an E30 but my E1 definitely has a place, even though it has become quite...

Please click and view at Full size: New Zealand's Milford Sound, once refered to as the "Eighth Wonder of the World" by Rudyard Kipling, easy to see why I feel. JB

when trying to reply to a thread the window iniially opens with the message "loading text editor" but never advances. If I close out of this window and return to the thread for a second time and...

The Frog and the Blue Dasher appeal to me most from a very nice series of photos. JB

You are correct regarding tripod use, but I have found when using a Monopod I get better results with the IS enabled rather than it being switched to off. Nice to see you here, best regards from...

Andrew, This is a C8080 image taken in low light, not the best camera for the job, BUT, if you are referring to the "ripple" effect on the water being caused by strong wind ripping across the...

Dave, I've taken another look at 100% and used the loupe , and the only thing I can think of is that I had IS  in the ON position with  the camera  mounted to a ball head. I used a remote release...

One of three in the species "The Little Wattle Bird"

When I was a child I was told that Elfs lived under Toadstools and Mushrooms, in this case I think they've moved on (lol)

This was taken a few years ago on holiday to the South Island of New Zealand somewhere west of Queenstown. There was a decent storm brewing. JB

Love them all Coll, but there's something special in that #3 image that captures my attention. The light and shade is superb. Cheers Mate, JB

What a great shot Dave.  At the right time of year the Great Barrier Reef in Far North Queensland, would offer you so many marine photography opportunities to make a trip Downunder all...
