Welcome Willy. I especially like the first shot - simple but effective. I agree with John - the 2nd shot is way too dark, but the subject holds lots of promise - maybe it can be rescued in PS.

And, BTW, that's not a wombat :wink:

Hello Willy,

how are you going ?
It seems that the Canberra D70 users are on the increase.
Welcome to the club.
I'm looking forward to your posts and hopefully we will be able to meet sometime soon.
The last meeting was a disaster.
It was a single very brave person (Canon owner) event and no D70 user showed up ! I whimped out ... (shame ...)

Regards,

CD

Cheers.

Greetings and welcome.

Your first shop makes me quiver in fear about the prospect of having to rake all those leaves up. :D
