    G'day Kelvin

    whacko - what a unit ! ..... I hope he has passed his "L"s and knows how to drive it
    I see that there are 2 EVFs ... the large one at the rear and a smaller on towards the front, presumably when the camera leaves its mount and becomes a portable device

      Glad I don't have to carry that. It's a whopper...:-)

    Hi Phil. I think you are probably right, there was a crew in the ring with a mobile unit. Rather them than me. Makes my setup look a total light weight and that's plenty heavy enough for me

      Lovely photo A&B. Did you take it in B&W or convert it? If it's the latter, what was your reason for converting? I love B&W so I'm just interested.

        Hi Isac. I converted it, just as an experiment, and preferred the B & W. version. The Sky is blown and the background is a bit busy. I just found it less distracting in B & W.

        This is the colour version.

          I do love a good B&W conversion A&B. Just me but I would add a DOF blur to the background from the bottom of the TESCO sign to the top. It makes it a much different image.
          New version, a bit more subtle. Like this:

            I Just changed it and did less DOF to make it a bit more appealing (I hope).

            Hi Isac, The re-edit gives a much more natural looking background and you've brought out a lot more detail on the camera itself. I might just increase the contrast a smidge but that's just a personal thing.

            Cheers A&B, your CC on my first attempt encouraged the second attempt, which I do prefer, thanks.

          I think the blurring attracts attention, rather than distracting it..again IMHO...

            Thanks Mark, a bad edit. I've asked if A&B wants it removed.
