I'm planning on entering one of the local shows here in Perth. One of the sections is Photography, so i'd thought i'd share what i'm entering. Hope you like

Here's a random pic i took the other day. A Singapore Airlines A330 appearing through clouds...I gave it a bit of sepia on the pic i developed at the photo lab and it came out rather mystical

Thanks fellas...

I'm fairly confident i got a good shot. but yeah I'm stoked just to be entering...I'm always getting told what are you doing working in the minds when you are so kick ass with your camera??? Go professional. so yeah

I'm stoked you liked....bit miffed with the last shot, there were a little bits of dust on the lens.

I love the last shot. The dust just adds character to it!

I tried a similar shot with my wife in Alabama, but the camera managed to focus on the flowers too much, and she was blurred lol dammit.

well i was about a metre behind the flowers, and i aimed at jodie(sister) and she was close enough to the other side of the garden bed that the shot came together... This was taken with a 70-300mm lens

I agree with Steve. #3 is a cracker. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Sorry but I can't agree. I think the dust spots are more likely to be on the sensor than the lens. Blemishes tend to show up in shots like this one & the competition judges will know that.

You could easily remove the spots from this photo with image editing software.
