I like a sunset which shows more than just the sun. Hardware: Canon Powershot G7 Exposure: ISO80, 1/400s @ f/4, -1EV, 29.2mm Post: Straighten, increased saturation, incread blackpoint, increased definition.

When compact cameras let you down… is trying to get a clean image in underexposed areas, like the top left of this sunrise. Hardware: Canon G7 Exposure: ISO250, 1/2500s @ f/8, -2EV, 12.7mm Post: Cropped.

Travel broadens the mind, at least partly because they do things differently away from home. This image, shot in Madrid, has meat just hanging up in the eating area of a restaurant – you won’t see this in Australia. Hardware: Canon G7Exposure: ISO800, 1/50s @ f/2.8Post: None.
