Jacobs in Edinburgh
Perhaps the high street retailer is fighting back as Jacobs have also just opened a shop in Albion Street, Leeds. They moved out years ago leaving big hole for Pentax users etc. Dave

Jacobs in Edinburgh
Might have a look in tomorrow, Sat 21st, if I get time after meeting my daughter for breakfast, meeting the lad's for beers and lunch, ( or more beers ), and then going on to watch Scotland beat Australia at Murrayfield, sound like a 'top' day. It will be pissing rain though :-( Maybe sneak...

Firefox 'issues'
this site occasionally crashes Opera for me, no problems with FF or IE7 under WinXP or Ubuntu Linux (obviously not IE under Linux). I like Opera best, but generally end up back with FireFox every so often because Opera is more finiky about what sites it will work with. If only everyone would j...

I joined the club
Thanks Gareth, I had planned to get back to you re. - flickr, but work has dragged me away a lot recently, with patchy web access. I must post a few more of my cow friends, I know it will tempt a few on here to fire up their BBQ's, but what the hell, you can't beat a good steak . . . . .

Can anyone explain this?
An extreme example would be to take a photo of an object on a sunny day, once from the front-lit position and once from the back-lit position. The colour would be totally different.

Finding my roots
Ruthven - it is on the Findhorn which is one of the Salmon rivers of Scotland. A pity you did not ask six weeks back as I was in the area and could have got a few pictures for you.

New Pentax Prices
The AP advert is incorrect, I am sorry to say. This happens occasionally with magazine adverts! The website prices are the current prices. I will however honour the £889 K-7 price for the duration of the advert (about 10 days from now). The K-x body is £519 as on the website. Sorry for the c...

New Pentax Prices
I might take you up on that! I saw the £889 appear on the SRS website very briefly (less than a day?) a while back, and was regretting not jumping when the price went back up..... Jon. I did! :D Which is why I'm selling off kit to pay for it! :D

Wrong reasons
Having describe Stefan as a "Babe", I'm not surprised at George's subsequent reservedness.:shock::lol: I fear you have been Americanised. I meant "babe" as in "babe in arms"; in other words, a mere stripling. Not "babe" as in ..., well, I don't think I need to spell it out. You clearly have th...

Sparrowhawk Behaviour
Hi mat, I saw that too. That was one of the surprising things about the situation today. The magpie was so close to the Sparrowhawk that it might have made an easier dinner than the duck. I had the camera on manual focus but the action took me by surprise and I forgot to readjust. Cedric

I've been ripped off ...
... for £600 and all I did was book two flights! Yes, £600 in taxes and charges most of which goes to this wretched money grabbing, money wasting government. This is on top of the cost of the flights! A pair of holiday flights to Cape Town and back from Jo'burg - that is all! And what will I g...
