A friend of mine has his own maintainence business and was on about the price he has to pay for fence panels , posts and even the postcrete have all rocketed . He is loosing work because people can't or won't pay the prices he is forced to charge due to it if he wants to make a profit

That's just showing off now Both excellent, number2 pips it for me

Lubbyman, it is growing in the "wild" woodland section of the park but no doubt if it is a problem someone will get it sorted, usually people around doing maintainence on the park.
thanks Grumpy from another Grumpy, so i'm told

Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 lens as 50-150mm Sigma now kaput. Starter set of Hi Tech 100mm nd grads plus 10stop and holder all for princely sum of £55

Having tried the dark side, M4/3rds. Decided "better the devil you know ". Found using the camera was not as easy as my K3 as well as the astronomical prices of the PRO lenses plus the general short comings of the smaller sensor.These are of course purely my findings. Being honest i could not fault the build quality of the camera, Olympus M10 mk2.
Back with the K3ii. A few snaps from our local park, went looking for squirrels as there are usually quite a few running around but today not a one.

1. A Touch of Pink, don/t know any of the flower names



2. Fruit of the Yew



3.Purple Flowers



4. Warts and All



5. Look like Hips



6. Follow the Light



7. Yellow Flowers



8. A Bit of ICM

Beautiful. Is the church actually used or is it looked after by Churches Conservation Trust as quite a few are in my area that no longer get used.

Good set. The Dome on the tower looks an interesting anomally on a Saxon Church. Most of the villages around Cirencester have Saxon or Norman Churches ,sometimes a mix of both, The skill of the builders always amazes me.

An excellent set in what can only be called challenging coditions, well done

definitely Dragonfly with 4 wings Damsels have 2 i believe. A couple of good shots

Thanks, the reason for the question was my new(to me)Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 seemed to focus more accurately in standard AF than LV even with focus peaking but sat down today and did some searching which ended up full camera reset with lens fitted , all now seems ok. A nice sharp lens
