Mainly aimed at Hedgehog Smiley 

I'm in awe of your pics you keep posting up... what lens(es) are you using for your photos. Or is a lot of stuff done via special magic in the editing?

Just looking to learn something here Smiley

 Smiley ... a lot of them were taken with a nice wiiiiiiiiiiiide 10-22 at 10mm with a polarising filter on to give some of the dark skies (which you can see vignetting the frames on some shots where I've not cropped it out  Cheesy )

damn... I'm not going to be able to get a lens that wide for mine. Looks like I'm going to have to work harder to get "the perfect shot"

Of course 10mm is really 16mm on my 1.6 crop sensor... good results can be got from an 18mm (28mm equiv) which is about as wide as you can get with most fixed lens cameras (compacts & pro-sumer).

but my 14mm four thirds lens is really a 28mm lens, so I'd need to go to an 8mm to get 16mm (is that right) - not that I've seen one of those... or know if they make them that wide
