Hey Damo,

We'll have to plan a POTN inaugural up John's way. Crabs and photography!

Anyhoo, back to the shot and an observation based from John's comment. Some of the most uncomfortable poses I've seen really do highlight some wonderful aspects of the female form. The pose here has brought out a gorgeous and subtle arc in her body and a gentle rise in her bust. Her head position I would have altered though. She's on the cusp of having a furrowed brow from having to look too far up with her eyes.

All in all you've taken a good shot that needs a little more brightness in PP. Your lighting, composition and a lovely model have given you leeway that aids us in seeing past a few imperfections.



And for everyone else, do we have any Photo5 finalists here?

Not me, i only managed to upload one pic, and that took two days.. next year, shoot early. load early!


MMMMMM, mud crabs and usuing someone else's camera after covering fingers in crab juice!:p

Thanks for the comments Al, appreciate them all. Got a lot to process but could have been more except for the thunderstorm, the mosquitoes, the eel that splashed out of the water near her and the huntsman exoskeleton that kept drifting past her and coming back with the wind, that was freaky!

Sharna, the dawn beach shoot, white dress, has picked out her favs from the shoot, 87 from 200 frames....HELP lol, I will do up 5-10 for her to the best I can do, the rest she can pay per pic for processing. I will post a set in the G&N when I am done as her chest became visible thru the white material:o.

Oh man wasn't it an abortion! I really lost a lot of interest after the first attempt to upload and didn't bother completing more than three.

My 10 year-old is heartbroken. Richo was his idol.

Edit: his mum's a bit shattered too

Mmmm, it's for the best - his body couldn't hack it, and that was all she wrote. (Not me though, I wrote five stories...)

I love him as much as anyone - hell, I ghosted his columns for the site this year - but when it's over, it's over. The smart ones go when they should.

I was going to take my camera, but figured that SPG would be there, and do a good job (which they did).

Some tax from my newly acquired 35L last night.

Thanks Brenno!! Great to have met you

Do i or don't i?

Thinking of joining PhotoMerchant to replace smugmug?

Is it worth it or should i stick with smugmug?

Do it, and report back to us!

I mean anything beats studying but still

Yup, even the 10 year-old knew that it was really time for him to give it up.

Any chance of a good, non-copyright violating snap for a young fan ?

Grrr, everyone seems to sell just after I buy a brand new one!

And my brand new one is a dud anyway. LAME!

well if anyone has a 35l to sell, let me know Otherwise i'll get it from HK

Nice acquisition gambit and nice shots too.

I'm pretty certain that i want a 135L, depends if i can get a good price secondhand. otherwise i will wait until my wife goes back to work. decisions decisions... So far i have bought all my lenses new, buying secondhand does worry me a little.

I just bought one for 800us from the FM forums, although i have someone bringing it back for me.

They go for about 850-900 normally, so maybe have a look there.
