Oh dear, did you wizz past a scamera van? I haven't been on the NYMR for quite a while. One thinks twice about paying out £30 for a trip. Maybe would if it was a tenner though. I know it must cost them quite a lot to run but 1 x £10 gives them more than 0 x £30.

Seems like it, I didn't spot any others around either. I only went to Pickering around lunchtime as the rain put me off earlier on and Pickering is only around a 30 minute drive away for me so I didn't need to rush. I was expecting to find the place deserted after all the rain; certainly wasn't the case though! The afternoon was quite pleasant and I found plenty to photograph.Great images John.

I get the impression you had a train ride?

I reckon about one A version mount comes up against 20 of the others, so while not rare, the A versions are quite scarce by comparison.
As to not seeing the Tamron lenses, if they come up with an alternative (non PK/PKA) mount they might escape one's notice but doesn't mean they can't be used. All it needs (of course) is a change of mount!

Yes, it's a funny way they show it. The DL is showing one in stock at Bournemouth, Castlepoint

Thanks for further comments and lead.20. Anyone able to identify this?

It seems much the same as this (1941) Royal Enfield WCO 350 ccm

£80. Any good?

There's a DL for £90 too.

Neither appear to be silver though, but given they're probably generic photos who knows what colour the actual cameras are so may be worth a phone call?

Thanks for the suggestion Nigel, how about:-That first one has great light and shows good contrast and visible dynamic range. Why not give your blues a little boost, just to add some extra depth to the skies ....
It's very subtle, any more and it starts to affect the overall balance.

My Win 7 had a similar problem over the weekend which the computer detected and uninstalled the last Windows update itself. All OK now. I think the problem is that MS are combining all the little updates into one big one and you can't pick and choose what to install anymore.
Cheers John. The problem I have is that I can't get to the log in screen. It simply loops to the stopcodes message after powering up. I'll be borrowing a laptop tocreate a recovery disk. And fingers crossed!Does this help?

On the way home from Pickering I stopped to take several photos as the light turned magical.
1. The Field Gate
2. Suffield from Newby, near Scarborough
3. One Tree Three Cows
4. The Undergrowth
I won't say what happened here but it looks like one of those fuzzy pictures some seem to rave about. Curious for an opinion on this!
