A couple of tips here for you. 1) Keep a lens cloth handy, these cold nights they fog up real quick. 2) If your going to use a torch,make sure it's a red light one. That way you wont ruin your night vision. Have fun.

I'm just looking at getting into some Astrophotography. Most if not all of that will be on a tripod. Just looking for some suitable lenses (f2.8 or less) but will not need IS as it has to be turned off anyway if your mounting on a tripod.

Hi all, been a few years since I last posted but getting back into me photography again. Liking the new forum soft wear :clap: Recently I have been forced to retire although the health was not getting any better so I think being made redundant was a bit of a blessing, also it has given me the...

How on earth did you get those shots in the Caves of Crap (I mean Drac). When we went there several years ago they were red hot on not letting you take any pictures. Smells like a covert job does this :-)

Very remiss of me I know, Ive just been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to pick up the camera, yet alone post to the group. Anyhow whilst checking through another old haunt of mine I found the following and though it might be of amusement to some here: Instructions for cleaning...

Finally picked up the camera again! Oh and daddies got a new toy :D :D :D

Always a difficult area. The one thing I hate about the feedback system is the way a seller will hold off posting your feedback until you have posted. As far as I'm concerned the rule should be, buyer feedback is posted as soon as goods are paid for, seller feedback is posted when good arrive...

Oh what a busy day, appointments with consultants and docs filled most of the day. However I've now finished cardiac rehab and got the all clear, so its back to work full time now. Also me diabetes review was all good news, so it looks like I'm fit for at least another year :thumbs: Having a...

I thought it wasn't recommended for pregnant women to drink :thinking: :lol:

Its VERY important to remember, that when searching for my companies web site you use the correct name. Its Wet N Wild not AND :nono: :lol:

I know nothing is for certain, but, the drugs they use these day's are dam good, hell even I survived! OK so I may have some extra metal tubes in me heart now, but at least its working :) From the sounds of it your dads a fit 82 so I wish him and you all the best. Oh and drive safely...

Whay Hay 2blue4u, many thanks for the heads up on that one. It looks to be just what they need. Lets hope its not too long before its up and running :clap:

Thanks for the replies chaps, but I think a little clarification is in order here. The network (as such) that I have at work is only a few PC's running XP on a peer to peer basis, no server or anything fancy. Both the MD and the other director use laptops and are traveling all over the...

Well, I'm just getting back to work now, 12 weeks off sick so I figure it's time to do a little more :) Just settling in and the MD comes up with a little problem for me. Now as there are so many clever IT types around here I figure this would be the best place to try for an answer...

I had a play with photographing my doggy today, nothing worth posting but interesting all the same. It did occur to me however that by getting down to their level produces a much better portrait type shot but, if I was going to do any amount of this there is one attachment I would by. A 90...
