Hello from London

[johnfitzg]

Have recently got started with a Ricoh GRII (just in time to be overtaken by the GRIII :shock: )

Am really enjoying, as fun to work with as a manual Nikon SLR (I used an FM for a while), but with the advantage of being always there, and, of course, digital.

You can see some of my results at:

A lot of very nice shots! The sharp abstract skyscrapers is the stand out in my opinion

Hi John,

welcome to the forum.

What a great idea incorporating your slideshow into the forum page.
I agree with Grus74 that the skyscraper image is a standout.
I also like the upside down water reflection - it has a painterly quality.

Hi John,

I love your pictures, you are a very talented photographer with a great eye for an Image. Your making great use of that GRD2. I'd love to introduce myself with a slide show like you, is it easy to do? please let me know how you did it, is it something to do with Flickr :?:

SteveE :geek:

Very interesting photos, thank you for sharing.

Thanks guys!

As luck would have it, the skyscraper shot wasn't taken on my GRDII- its lens got stuck open one weekend, so I had to resort to my old Lumix compact

@SteveE: The slideshow was pretty easy, I just pressed the 'flickr=' button, and entered the details. I find Flickr quite handy, it's very quick to upload to and preserves all the EXIF info etc. It even has a feature where you can click 'blog this' and send a pic straight to your blog!

Really enjoying the GRDII, and this great site!
