I ordered the sigma 10 - 20 two weeks ago from warehouse express and it was delivered the next day for the same price as SRS including postage.

Bye the I'm away next week just in case your feeling generous Daniel!!

Jonathon,

The impressions gallery has relocated from York to Bradford. It is part of the move for Bradford as a centre for the media industry.

Dave

Hello all

I am glad everyone enjoyed themselves. The problem was trying to stop people taking pictures. The photo below shows what happens when Alan crosses the stream on stepping stones.



They also have the problem of not being able to pass the tea shop!
Good to see you harry. I agree with everybody a great day out!

Alan has suggested that we make the next visit a little later inthe Autumn and go to Fairburn nature reserve near Castleford to photo the birds overwatering on the lakes. Any other ideas and offeres to make the arrangements?

Dave

Well good people the story so far...

Hello all

1. Meeting
At last a decision
Date: 15.9.07
Time: 10.30
Venue: Hardcastle Crags, near Hebden Bridge
Meeting place: Midgehole car park

For more information see:

http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-vh/w-visits/w-findaplace/w-hardcastlecrags/

and http://www.bbc.co.uk/bradford/nature/walk1/index.shtml

I don't propose the whole walk to Gibson Mill and return as that is about 3 or 4 miles. I envisage a wander round the woods and along the river.

If you want a lift from the station at Hebden bridge post a message here.

Please let me know if you are coming as I will make sure we wait for you...



2. Impotent Spider you suggested a pub meet some time. Where and when do you suggest - always happy to meet and compare beers.

Just recently i bought a home printer. generally speaking I ma happy but...
I use photoshop eelemnts 3 and I have found that with the Epson R265 I get a purple cast in dark areas eg on shadows and on landsapes with greens. I use the epson inks as supp;ied with the printer.

Any suggestions how to correct this?

Davem

Hello

I have enjoyed the feedback. Normally my pictures are a private thing and not subject to scrutiny by any one except my very close family, ie my wife.

This forum has given me a lot of confidence and the comments on the entries have certainly helped. This weekend I even entered some photos in the local agricutural show and won a second prize! ( By the way the judge was biased my wife and daughter said i should have won at least three out of the five catagories i entered!)
