More Camera Practise - Ducks

Still learning how to use my long lens hand held with the tele-converter. This requires manual focus, so takes practise. Therefore a cooperative subject provides a great chance to perfect my technique. These ducks were swimming in the shallows of a flooded quarry in the Malvern hills.

Yorkshire Dales Landscape

So often I am in the Yorkshire Dales for caving, but rarely have I actually taken a nice surface landscape photograph. So when driving to a caving club dinner on a Saturday afternoon and the light quality being really nice I stopped the car to snap this view in Swaledale.
