Hi Paul, thanks for that... I see you cheated by using a more experienced surfer in your version! Thanks for stopping by...

Hi Rina,
Yup, straight from the camera, just trying out the dof afforded by a new zoom lens... I honestly hadn't thought about the fact that ANY photo involving one's children is almost by definition nostalgic... although I'm obviously not as old as you are, in that my nostalgic photos aren't actually sepia toned

I think this is technically the best shot of the series... the challenges of getting the tv properly exposed as well as getting enough light on the boots in a darkened room is much harder than it looks I suspect... dodging the highlights off the boots was a good idea too. Well done.

Thanks to all... I have a cunning plan to improve this... I had the camera basically swinging around the end of the telescope, so keeping the image still was a huge problem. In future I'm going to plonk the camera on its own tripod as well, to provide extra stability. I can't believe it's taken this long to think of that.
Roberto, I think your work with the unsharpen mask is a signpost to getting more out of the shot than I did... I've got a full moon in a day or two, and if the sky's right I'm going to have another go at this... there's really not much to choose between the b&w and the colour image is there, except whenever I look at a b&w astronomical image, I always wish it was in colour, because it's that beauty that attracted me to astronomy in the first place.. even when the colour version looks very similar to the b&w...
Again, thanks to everyone who's commented. And thanks to the ladies and gentlemen of the Academy. And my mother and father.

Hi Colin... there was some colour aberation around the edges which I managed to tease away... but I'm pretty happy with my first crack... thanks for the comment...

I love the perspective, and the texture of the bases gives a cool feel once the DOF takes them out of focus...

... and it worked. It was above the model and to your left, yes? Good thinking... I'm not sure about the post behind her left shoulder... I can't help thinking it's skewing the framing of the shot...

This has an old time feel to it, which kind of suits the oval framing you've given it. I can't help feeling that the dog has chewed on the arm of the chair...
