A few pics from my recent visit to the Afon Mellte with my new 300D.
Sgwd Isaf Clun Gwyn. A handheld shot at 1/250 at ISO 400,

Water and rocks. A smooth rendition of the water flowing across the flat bedrock at the top of the
fall, backed by moss covered rocks, foliage and cliffs. This image is two horizontal shots stitched
together to form a square image. http://www.wildwales.fsnet.co.uk/misc/mellte/water_rocks.jpg
Moss covered tree. The sun came out so I shot this against the light, for that sunlight fringing
effect. http://www.wildwales.fsnet.co.uk/misc/mellte/moss_tree.jpg
Sgwd Clun Gwyn. Rarely seen like this, with the water filling the full width of the river. Again I
used a fast shutter speed to capture the drama of the water thundering over the fall. This is the
scene that my camera wouldn't focus on with the polariser attached (but this is not the polarised
photo). http://www.wildwales.fsnet.co.uk/misc/mellte/scg.jpg
Bracket fungus. I spotted this meaty bit of fungi on a nearby tree. This shows the poor "bokeh" of
the lens. Any idea what caused the scratch marks on the fungus?

Moon. An odd one out, not taken at the Mellte. This was taken last night with a 300mm lens (480mm
equivalent) to show what is possible with such a lens. This is a crop from the full size frame (3072
x 2048), no resizing. http://www.wildwales.fsnet.co.uk/misc/moon.jpg
