    To batalay: Thanks for the message!

    My travel photography has mainly been good for TrekNature, so have not been busy here. But my recent California trip gave me a great opportunity to do some urban photography.

    Smile To jhm: Sharpness and clarity

    I used a Nikkor 35mm prime (fixed focal length) for this interior shot which is an extremely sharp lens. The quality definitely comes through compared to a zoom lens. Thanks for your kind comments.

    To serp2000: Why you are seeing land at sunset

    The geography of the Outer Banks, with its bays an inlets, can make it confusing. I was at Corolla, more or less, looking west towards the mainland.

    To batalay: Bethesda

    Hi Bulent:

    This was taken at Glen Echo, where local artists have various studios that they can use to create their art.

    To ikeharel: Great picutre of Ein Avdat

    You were fortunate to be there when one of the pools was full - it must be spectacular at that time.

    To BennyV: Low resolution

    Problem is that this is so reduced in resolution that the fine details visible such as peoples face, street signs building facades do not come through on the web at this size.

    To Sonata11: Good workshop

    Your workshop definitely improves the picture. It was an overcast sort of day there, and you have overcome it with the increased contrast. Thanks!

    To Vitaly: Thanks

    The real problem was that I could not retain the detail in the river - every attempt to mask it and expose it properly failed due to the trees in the foreground. I made a different version with the...

    To erhan1958: Thanks for your feedback

    Erhan:

    My one regret was I did not realise that the aperture was wide open so the DOF is so shallow.

    To batalay: Lenses

    I have an old Nikkor 70-200 lens from my pre-digital days, and I must say that I think the older and simpler lenses, like the classic 50 mm f/1.8 are sharper than the new zoom lenses, which probably...

    Mirek:

    I wondered about the antennas on the hill - reality vs a more "artistic" picture. I don't see the "tilt" - perhaps what you are referring to is some curvature of the nearby hill?
