What's the smiley for envy and jealousy? I'll be interested in your opinions when you've used it.

Good set, Cliff. It looks as if you had a good day. As with other people I go for no. 1 as my fave, but I also like the others.

The one in the gallery of the the women is very clever.

Cheers,

Howard

Trying to get a good shot of one of the parrots is much harder in my view:

Yes they are indeed, I got this near Hampton Court in Nov 2009.

I went to Ribblehead last year, a lovely place -

I agree with Johnwhit Ingleton Falls are great, we went on the Ingleton Falls Walk, very picturesque and photogenic.

I would recommend both, but probably wouldn't be coming.

Cheers,

Thanks H,

These are not cropped I assume?
The Monarch is not cropped at all, a bit of levels but the flybe is cropped, the original is -

Not an airshow but both these, of aircraft leaving Manchester Airport, were taken with 55-300mm on a K10D.

and

Hope it helps but I think it shows what 55-300mm can do.

Da iawn, ardderchog.

My favourites are No 1 and No 3. Possibly crop a bit of the brown off the bottom of No 4, but then perhaps it would unbalance the image.

Are you looking down the Llyn or toward Caernarfon? I can't make it out.

Hwyl,

Howard
