The church is almost dead centre in the photograph in the dip of the tree line. I did take another shot with the church clearly visible but preferred this one with it virtually invisible

Crossing the road after the shot, I noticed the spider.

I did not spend long taking him/her as I did not wish to be run over

Hopefully the spider made it to the safety of the grass verge.

Next task is some true macros with the lens

I went for a walk with the DA35 Macro to try it out.

Nos. 1 & 2 are basically as taken and no. 3 is a very big crop.

It strikes me as a very versatile lens

I bought 3 Hahnel Olympus Li-50B / Pentax D-Li92 (to feed the X70's habit) from Digital media in the Channel Islands for £14.99 each delivered.

They have a two year warranty and come in a plastic case.

Apparently there are some fake batteries on the market claiming to be genuine Olympus batteries.

Thanks Chris.

Sorry to hear that some people are being unreasonable

I would much rather they took it out on Gordon (no more boom and bust) Brown - the cause of most of our problems

A Kata H-14 would be my suggestion.

Expensive but you do get what you pay for

My H-14 takes the K20 + grip + DA* 50 - 135 + spare lens + batteries etc. etc.

I really like No. 1.

Where was it taken from to get that angle of view :

But I did not learn anything so the thread maintains its 100% record as being useless
