I'm in sw London so I've got heavy light pollution in all directions. I read on the lonely speck site about red intensifier filters cutting light pollution but it's not working out for me. Some weird things happen with the star colours so trails look crap and I can't stack multiple frames to clean them up as the star might be a different colour in each frame.
Maybe with a camera that gives single files clean enough it might work well

Really like the fly in the picture.

This Kingfisher perched on my rods a few times

I have never got a shot of any Kingfishers on my rods before but managed up to a hundred of this one over a four day period. I think this one is a juvenile.

That's a great shot. What lens are you using for macro.
I use the Sigma 105mm but haven't used it for a month now but will be hopefully getting to do something with it soon.
This Blue Green Dragonfly was with a 150 to 600 Sigma lens taken on the same session as the Kingfisher, lucky shot really

Some nice shots guys, I've only really done some portrait stuff over the last couple of weeks, trying to say goodbye to my 75 1.8 but I keep having ideas for it
Ken, those kingfisher shots would be good to revive the view from the swim thread, it'll get a bigger audience in that section

What a great idea, thanks.
Keebs I love the detail in the Spider pic.

Playing with the pro capture mode to get some take off shots of damselflies, hover flies and bees
Filled a 64gb card in 20 minutes
Any volunteers to filter through 6000 images for maybe 20 worth keeping

If you sort those 6000 pics out i have a couple of 1tb external drives that need sorting.
Why do we keep so many pictures we may never look at again.
Anyone else have trouble hitting the delete button.
