Also, just won a Canon 200E flash on ebay for £3.64 inc postage. Got to be worth a gamble for that price. It might not be all singing all dancing, but it's a start.

Maybe it's because some of the subjects are what brought me into photography in the first place, but they are fantastic!!
I just hope when I go out at the weekend I can come close to your high standards.
And good luck to Lenscape for the judging. I think you'll need it

I'm now watching an AF160 on ebay. Don't tell the Mrs

I've been wary of getting the older flash units off ebay as I've heard they can damage the camera.
I've still got my old "dumb" flash I used with my Super ME and thought of using that, but I was too scared
Thanks for the offer Steve. I might yet take you up on it...if I can find a suitable dumb flash!

Welcome Rivvy, does this mean you are from somewhere near Rivington or am I making the wrong guess with your username?
Hope you enjoy the site and the forum and we'll look forward to you joining in the fray!
( Rivington, that's a nice part of the world. A friend of mine used to have a caravan up there. )

And thanks to Glyn for his judging and for taking the time to write all those reviews!

I allowed myself a moment of delusion this morning whilst driving into work. I thought, what would be a good topic if I won this week, ( yeah, yeah...I know ).
However, this is exactly the topic I decided I would choose. Problem I have is the same as Giving Tree. I got my camera this spring, so I don't have any Autumn / winter pics at all. Still. it's an excuse to go for a walk next weekend

Something else I can not understand, some other forums ( Canon to name one ) when you add a new post or topic you can load a photo into it there and then useing a button at the bottom etc, why is this not used here::
the other forums I use (car clubs mostly) are the same as this, where you need to use a third party, such as photobucket, to host your pictures. This is to limit bandwidth useage and storage requirements of the site.
Although, notably, the comeptions part of this site does allow for direct up-loading of the image.
