Dankie Riny, maar dit was 'n bietjie meer geelerig hier. Ek dink daar is baie stof in die lug. My eerste pos "Embryo" is die ware kleur toe dit donker geword het. Groete, Robert

Blazej, I was trying everything possible, but all manual focus. I chose these three images for their effect, so they may not all be "true to life". As the eclipse progressed there was very little light and the longer exposure time allowed the moon to move quite a bit. During one shot at 3 sec it moved about 0.5mm on the LCD display!

Hi Michael, sorry I only read this comment after I posted my eclipse shots. I hope you did tshoot some otherwise I'm going to feel very bad about this. ( My email is robcurrie@ragdoll.co.za ). Thanks for thinking of me Michael.

I see it has an arresting hook so it probably had a tough life on aircraft carriers. The b/w works very well here, you could even have added some grain to give it that '40s look. It looks a lot like the Harvard trainers that were used here in S.A. Till later, Robert

Grand old bird. It looks like it is also a flying exibit, did they do any flypasts at the show? Robert

In South Africa it is called Frangipani (bot name:Plumeria) and is also known as the fruit salad flower because of its fragrance! Unfortunately we stay in an area which has bad frost in winter, so they won't survive here. Thanks for sharing. Robert

Jeroen, this sounds like good experience for you when you land that big travel magazine assignment with tight deadlines . I have now dropped behind with viewing all the other images so it will take me a while to get around to everybody again. Friendly greetings, Robert

Jeroen, I was told not to visit any of the forums and I played by the rules! It was definitely worth it, thanks for you effort, I must still have a look at the spare pictures Linn has. Baie dankie, Robert

Hi Andy, yes it was handheld. Actually there is only one photo in my portfolio that isn't handheld and that is the candlelight still life!

Riny, jy is reg, Wonderboom lughawe is in die noord van Pretoria. Die Wonderboom is 'n groot wilde vyeboom (ek dink dit is die grootste boom in diameter in die wereld!). Robert

Jeroen, you don't seem to be on line at present, maybe you're on assignment in outer Mongolia, Guatamala or New Zealand or some other far off place , but I would like to thank you for helping Linn with this birthday surprise. It couldn't have been easy to find an Alfa Romeo in Bangkok :-). The gift is much appreciated.
Thank you
Robert

Emgy, you are such a sweetie. Thanks for all the trouble you went to, and I know you went to some trouble because Linn has just emailed me all the photos that were taken for this surprise! I also appreciate all your comments on my snapshots (compared to your works of art) and I always look forward to your posts. Thanks again my good friend, and we'll chat again soon.
Is jy 'n Italianer of 'n Hollander? :-)

Chris, I've enroled Linn on a PS Elements course and I'm hoping that one day she will be able to produce superb work such as this! Thanks again for putting together this wonderful collage. I still can't believe Linn took the photos of the GTV while driving, but it is a local licence plate so I guess it is so. Regards, Robert

Stephen, now I know why you've been out till the cows come home! LoL. Thanks for helping Linn put together this wonderful surprise and I'm sorry to hear you had to go out in the middle of the night, in the pouring rain to track down the Alfista. I see from your recent post that the weather has improved at least :-) Robert
