City - Leeds State - WEST YORKSHIRE Country - United Kingdom
About
This is shot of a lizard in Tropical World, taken yesterday when I met up with Steve Bowden for a few hours.
Got quite a few decent shots, though I think I need a more suitable lens for the place - my 300 isn't the sharpest tool in the box, the 15-30 was too wide and my 24-85 is in a river somewhere. Also, you really need a F2.8 to get anything done in there!
Dream on
We managed to wangle tripods after dinner (despite having the spanish inquisition off the staff) do I managed to get this one nice and sharp, was a 5 second exposure. He wasn't moving too fast so seemed an appropriate shutter speed!
Most of my earlier ones ended up being a bit blurred or the subject was just too small!
Quite a few decent ones later - still working through them at the mo.
Got blotto last night - when I was on the motorway I got 2 calls... bad nwes. FDI are closing the Leeds office so we're all out of a job!
Nothing's assued yet, but basically we need to finish off what we were doing and that's it. 3 months pay so it's not panic stations, but still a bitter blow before Xmas. Happened 2 years ago to the day... 17th december 2002!
Am out for a few later but will come up to Boston if I'm in a fit state!
Ade this came out a dream, again the red glow from the lights are superb. My version has a reflection across the glass, if only my polariser wasn't covered in Terrapin droppings lol
The show at Boston Spa doesn't open until 12pm and I will definitely be there. Enjoy your do tonight and if you are awake drop me a text/phone.
