Hello all,

I was last here 2 or 3 years ago with my first proper camera. A k5. And nearly hosted some of you at our farm, until we were fogged out at the last minute.

Since then I have tried lots of cameras, film and digital, and lurked on lots of forums. None however have the friendliness and support of this one. So I am very happy to be back with my new to me Pentax 6x7.

Cheers

Will

Hi. Will. Welcome back. I was one of the members who was coming to your farm. I lost my contact address for you and the location of your farm. I was thinking at the time to visit you on my own as I'm just down the road in Kettering. All I remember is your farm is somewhere to the east of Leicester but still near to the edge of the town. If you want to let me know your farm address either here or in a PM then I may pop over a little later in the year to photograph some of your rusty "OLD" machinery which I seem to remember you said you had. It might be possible to have a get together with some others as was the original idea? What do you think?
CHEERS Vic.

Vic, the farm is called Scraptoft Hill Farm, if you Google it you will find our ancient website that I must update. You are welcome anytime.

Dave, the conclusion I have reached is sadly the type of camera makes little difference, and I therefore have to rely on my meagre abilities.

Greetings from the Southwest!
Welcome back, and still a bargain at twice the price!
