It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

It's probably a Kamaz racing truck - I'd love one of them along with a Bowler Nemesis to play with.

I have actually witnessed a Pinz in action. Bit slow and noisy on the road though thanks to the portal axles!

One of my friends has one. You can almost climb up a tree with that thing. It's amazing how it makes the unaccessible accessible. That friend also owns a first generation Hummer, and I bet the Pinz will easily go to places the Humvee would have a hard time reaching.

Who was the guy on the discovery owners club who had a TD5 disco and fitted Unimog axles to it, that was a monster![/quote]There's a bloke on Mud Club fitting 'mog axles to a hacked 300TDI Disco. He seemed to be having fun getting everything to line up reliably.
