Where have the Butterflies gone?
Nice to have the Hummingbird Moth John, I think that they are steadily moving North. Regards David I saw one up here a few years back, failed to get a shot though. Then read in the paper that they had just landed way down south.

Where have the Butterflies gone?
Things do go a bit quiet at times, like you I saw a lot in spring, but I've just got back from a few days in the north east (England) and I started seeing ringlets, meadow browns, large skippers, fresh small tortoiseshell, speckled woods plus the occasional red admiral and peacock. Don't worry I thi...

Mounting a photo to backboard or mount?
Hi When I mount photos I use double sided tape on the back board full length Of the photo at the top only so it just hangs down

Mounting a photo to backboard or mount?
I use 3M Photo Mount (red can). Spray the back of the print, let the adhesive evaporate and then press down onto the board. Use a roller to firmly press the print down. It's essential to use the red can spray and not the blue one as the latter will peel off, not being permanent.

Mounting a photo to backboard or mount?
I use acid free tape to 'hinge' mount the print to the back of the mount board, and then tape a backing board all the way around. This gives a solid result with no movement or crinkling of the print, but still lets you change the mount (size or colour) should you wish to. Phil

Mounting a photo to backboard or mount?
Yes, that is pretty much what I did. The 3M spray puddled on the back of the print - and some got onto the print itself, which went in the bin. For me, using a window mount and double sided tape is a safer option. Andrew

Camera bumbag? or another solution?
Anyone have a bumbag they use for carrying their gear? I have several bags, but now the camera is on a sling strap they a right royal pain most of the time. So a bumbag type of affair seems a reasonable solution. I have been tempted by , though not at that price - it is much cheaper here, and i...

Camera bumbag? or another solution?
I've recently changed my strap to an Optech Sling Strap and also thought it was pain with my Lowepro MiniTreker. However; I persevered and now I put the sling strap on first followed by the back pack, this works very well as I'm able to offload the back pack whenever I need to change a lens or di...

TDF Stage 1
Give us a wave when you fly over the Ilkley / Addingham stretch :D I am wondering if I'll be able to cycle from Ilkley across to Harrogate to catch the end of the race on the Stray. The main roads will be closed until late afternoon and the back roads will most likely be chock-full of traffic. Le...

TDF Stage 1
For you - certainly can't get in via Skipton Road and A59 is closed. I think you may be OK if you go down the 658 from Poole and then take the back road to the left - forget the road name - goes through Leathley to Beckwithshaw - and then cut in to Harrogate on Otley Road - towards Harlow Carr - do...

Please Sort It Out
Having returned from a week and a half away I find the forum has suffered rather in terms of content and activity recently. What I find is not really an awful lot going on, a surprising number of banned members, some clear attempts at mischief making and really just a bad taste in the mouth. It ...

It is a shame, absolutely. I was surprized that so many people have had such strong feelings. But we all want different things from a forum, and I have remained active here because I don't have the time to split my activities between sites and I find this site comfortable and easy to navigate around...

It's already sorted out, it doesn't really help very much to bring it up again. Let's get back to the photography, which, in fact, we have already been doing.

I thought a plea to get the forum back on track was helping and supporting the forum. Looks like you just want me to shut up. I think I probably will.

Everyone's still there and here David, there's just a period of confusion and some positioning going on. We're all still the same people, Pentax shooters. There's no point in the uk community being fractured and split along these sort of lines. Lets hope that the work in progress referred to here wi...
