You guys should read this :

Well Banjo, an interesting link, but as the good old Daily Mail has been at the forefront of climate change denial (not to mention many other popular but spectacularly under researched campaigns in the recent past) I would not worry too much about a mini ice-age.

Thanks Vicki, but I cannot find a link to the photography tuition mentioned by Simon. Can you help with this?

Aiki, the first image has an element of surreality which appeals to me.
I think would have cropped some of the light on the right, back to the trees.
Where did the pink light in the centre mid/distance come from?

Simon, I would be interested in the photography/walk, but I can't find details of the photography option on the web site that you posted. Is there another address?

No 3 for me. Maybe I need to also have a break .............

It reminds me of friends who were living in a narrow boat on the Lymm canal, they were frozen in for a week and awoke one night at 3.00am when the ice broke and the 70' steel boat dropped 12" to the new water level. One hell of an alarm clock.

Love the shed lock. BTW, if you allow the icicles to grow too long, their weight can remove your rain water gutter. (Been there, got the T-shirt!)

Thanks Greytop. So there is no specific optical advantage to a * lens, other than the practical benefits of improved weather resistance?

WR always appeals to me, it's just a shame in wasn't to DA* standard.

Can someone enlighten me as to the mechanical and image advantages of the * lenses?
