Lovely stunning post- I particularly like the use of capital letters in line four and you've absolutlely nailed it spelling wise.
I do like the colour of the text too- of course that could just be my monitor.

I've been wresting with whether to trade up from the 50-200WR, but thought I'd be able to hold off for a while. Now this
Nice sharp shots

Just how much better have people found the IQ of the DA 55-300 in comparison to the DA 50-200 WR 'kit lens'?
I have the latter and use so far has mostly been for landscapes, so low ISO, stepped down stuff, but I can also see me trying other things in the future (wildlife etc). I like the fact that the 50-200 is compact, WR and takes 49mm filters... but reports on the 55-300 suggest it's a real 'step-up' and still fairly compact.
Trying to decide if it should be next on my 'Lens Lust' List [Copyright infringement alert]

I had got the helmet from the visitor centre at Lava Beds National Monument in CA, and spent the afternoon exploring lava tubes

Just before I go to bed I must make it clear I will not be resigning in the wake of allegations regarding a football match I attended after winning a ticket at a works tombola in 1996. I have never been to Champneys for free for 6 weeks. I have never been employed for £1000 a day. I have NO links with Rupert Murdoch, BSkyB, News International, Brooks, etc etc.. I have once been stopped by a policeman, not from the Met, and I got three points and a fixed penalty fine, I paid the fine and did not offer the copper a job. I have never hacked a phone, nor bribed anybody. I feel I shall remain untouched by the ongoing revelations. (at least I'm crossing my fingers). I have been on holiday (more than once) but not knowingly to avoid any blame for anything.
Good night.

Nice sharp capture. Really good stuff.

But I also really like the energy in #2... apart from the lady on the far left, who does not seem to have the funk at this particular moment. Almost hate to suggest it, but might be better cropped into the folk on the right.
Nice set
