I use Flickr, primarily as an off-site backup. It's often not realised if you are with BT for broadband included is an unlimited FlickrPro account for each email address.

Nice set Mike.
2 & particularly 3 are my favourites. I find the parachute a bit distracting in 1, although I expect the pilot was glad of it!

Thanks for the kind comments. I bought the lens "blind" over the phone so you can imagine how pleased I was when I opened the box to find a lens that looked like it had never been used.

Hi all, this is my first post so please be gentle!
I recently picked up a mint Tamron SP 90mm F2.5 from LCE for only £69 - it was originally £89 but had a £20 refund because the extension tube was missing from the otherwise complete kit. By applying a slither of insulating tape to my PK Adaptall mount I am able to use it as a fully auto lens and use the Metz 36 in PTTL mode.

These are all hand held, full-frame with just a little sharpening to 2 & 3. I think I need to sort out a diffuser for the flash.
I'm not really sure why, but I quite like No.1
