    Photos Four from today:

    1st up is a long view of Blackpool Tower from Beacon Fell:

    Spoiler:



    Next is a falling leaf (well, I actually held it in place - and it's my attempt at a feature in Digital Photo magazine...

    Spoiler:



    3rd is in the Bleak District (up in the hills north-east of Inglewhite) looking across the wilds toward Scorton... (and yes, I knew a bout the flare when I took the photo, but opted to leave it in).

    Spoiler:



    And finally, what could be be a birch tree, but I'm no botanist... I used photoshop and selective colours to change all the leaves (not that there are many left on it) into a more autumnal yellow, and then burned back the trunk a bit more to pull the colour of the trunk back somewhat.

    Spoiler:



    All the above on the new EOS 400D with the Canon 18-50mm stock lens, except the tower shot, which was the Tamron 70-300mm.

    That falling leaf one is great mate, really like that idea and you've shot it really well, nice work. The first one just lacks any real definition afar to make it stand out tho i think, the 3rd one's nice, could do with some more contrast though and perhaps a little more saturation, but a lovely scene for sure.

    I'd have been tempted to try the falling leaf trick with the 4th pic too, to see how it comes out.
