There is blur too like a double exposure, one from the background lighting showing subject movement plus the frozen image from the flash. That would suggest the camera set a slow sync speed so that...

I think it is lens flare off the white which would explain why the pictures without white are OK. If it was only a contrast problem then the white clothing would indeed be totally burnt out but there...

Far too expensive for me. Hoping for a new 100-400 at a more affordable price though I expect when it is announced it will still be at a pretty eye watering price like around 2K.

From what I have read over the years any 18-200 (or 18-270 or 300 or whatever) are a huge compromise trading convenience against image quality. If you want quality the consensus is to avoid such...

Thanks Graham, I do agree with you. If he broke the competition rules then there is unfortunately no argument, he has to be disqualified. Great shame as the final image is superb.

No offence taken at all, interesting for the folk with Photoshop who want to have a go at HDR without further expense. Wonder how the results compare with a bought plug in?

There is nothing at £1500 that really tempts me at the moment so I would put it towards more expensive stuff that is beyond my means.

My guess is, having been to Linisfarne several times, that the upturned boats and the castle are from two different shots that have been brought together. Not sure of course, wish the judges had said.
