A Recent trip to the dales

Just over a week ago spent a few days up in the yorkshire dales had very mixed weather and it was one of the first opportunities to use my K5. Unfortunately my partner isn't into photography and I felt a little rushed.

You did unfortunately pick a pretty awful week weather wise Annie. I very much like the first shot - especially as it is something that I keep promising myself I will get around to photographing one day!

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

1st and 4th for me.I like the composition of the viaduct, the bleakness of the dales.

K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.

I like them all but I love number 4.

As for being rushed by your partner, I've found that persistence (or just sheer bloody-mindedness) has gradually built up my wife's tolerance - I can now get quite a few shots off before the inevitable "can we just go now?"

Thanks every one for the nice comments

I have also found that sheer bloody-mindedness works most of the time but one of the days away I persuaded him to come with me to the fall at west burton, been there often before, on this occasion it was raining but I love the place so got my own way. It was the expression on his face when I started to get my tripod out. Say no more lol thought it best to just take a couple of hand helds, and then drive back to the pub

My wife hasn't settled with nagging me to hurry up. She now has the kids on her side. "Where's daddy?". "Oh, he's photographing anotherlog! "
