Not too belated this year.

Please keep photos to 1200px on the longest side, or it'll take an age to load.

Hopefully another awesome year of photography for everyone.

One to kick off from me. Stevington windmill on a winter's evening.

I sort of like this one, although I'm sure it could have been much improved upon:

Just used the compact for this, not sure where to start with the DSLR.

I changed to a LUmix bridge camera last year. It's way too easy to overuse the zoom and the image quality seems a bit lacking. Easy to use though.

That is a great effect. My Canon does this but I have never really been anywhere up high enough to test it out.

Looking forward to getting out this year with my new lens. I got a 10-18mm Wide angle for the Canon.

Exactly what I thought. Also, I know you were just messing around/experimenting, but there's no subject for the eye to settle on, despite the sharpness in the centre. That camera setting I would say needs an obvious subject at the focal point.

Nice pic.

I really believe that the camera is far less important than the subject. Use what you have.

My Nikon has a similar effect called miniature mode, it sort of replicates tilt–shift photography. I've tried using it on a few photos but never really found anything that I could get it to work on.
It has timelapse mode with the same effect as well which I used to make a little video www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpWqCJ4xGJs but again never used it afterwards.

They've all been cropped for Instagram as I don't really post them anywhere else.

The motorbike park above Norwich market, love this place.

I took this on the way into New York a little while ago. Pocket camera, no post-processing, no filters just an amazing sunrise behind Manhattan.

It's called tilt-shift, makes stuff look like toys. Applied to video it's like your own little Trumpton.

Managed to get this one just as my phone decided to reboot for some unknown reason...

This one is Kew Gardens when they did their Christmas night walk thing. Again just a phone camera (Nexus 4)..

iPhone snapshot in low light. I'm no photographer. Not sure why it came out like an oil painting. I like it though.

A backup for your backup.

Doesn't really matter on the type - just as long as you have redundancy, one at home - one somewhere else.

I periodically sync to a NAS i then take home out of the office. I have a fair bit of an archive of images which sit on my office computer and then the has comes in once a week to sync and take it home, no point in me even trying to sync via the web.
