First time I've not had a heron fly off immediately as I turn up, so I had a bit of time to try and compose a shot properly.

Why, what have you done to them to make them want to fly away when they see you?

Lovely shot hydra, would of been even better shot at a lower aperture though to slightly blur the background, the twigs and stuff are bit distracting atm.. You could fake it photoshop a bit i suppose

I cheated since I edited the pics of the teacups But I thought I'd share it anyway.

This is just the mothers day flowers I gave to mum.

Yeah that did run through my mind and I had a lower aperture set on some other shots I took of it, but it started moving so I switched the settings a bit.

I suppose I could photoshop it, but that's a lot of effort for me, I generally don't post process my shots much.

I hate tea sets like that but some are worth money, you should go and see Bruce Dickinson, he might get you a good price.

They're my dads, handed down from his dead adoptive mother. They're just lying around for decoration

You have a good eye for composition.

Advice I'm thinking of upgrading to a entry level DSLR currently I'm using a bridge super zoom Panasonic Z45 16mp 32x zoom.Im quiet happy with it as it takes great shots and has a wide range of both auto and manual settings as well as good quality 720p video,and the zoom is just fantastic .So would it be worth while upgrading to a DSLR ? I won't be doing it straight away as I've only recently purchased a Vita and last week had to change my phone so picked up the 4S which wasn't cheep so is it worth the step up.
