It has been in Dorset for three weeks and was on its way to London. I saw on local websites it was passing through Woking and it was too good an opportunity to miss. Plenty of folk out to see it. it was a good job i grabbed an early vantage point on the bridge as it soon got quite packed. She arrived earlier than expected as they cancelled a stop at Brookwood at the last minute due to overcrowding on the platforms.

I have the Adobe Photo package (LR + PS) and use LR mainly for cataloguing my images.

I have used Silkypix DS Pro for many years for raw processing and it is my converter of choice.

If I am going to do further work on an image in selective areas I will create a 16 bit TIFF from the raw file using Silkypix then work on it in Photoshop. Finally creating the end product jpeg from PS.

Only £400!??
The value of any item is only what someone is prepared to pay for it. I posted this here for £500 a month ago with no interest.

I hope to get more than £400 for it, we shall see.

Thanks for the recommendation Lennybloke I did think about keeping it as a lighter version than the 70-200 f4 I now own, but I find I use a tripod so much these days the weight difference is not that important to me.

Less than a day to go now on ebay. No bids so far but a fair few watchers.
