Stu - no you can't. The land owner gets quite upset about people trespassing. You basically have two views of the Priory - one from Newark Lane, and the other from the Wey navigation. They're approximately at right angles to each other.can you actually get to the priory to look round the place as it says its on private land
Peter - It wasn't until someone else pointed it out, that I realised that there was one in the picture! I think that the possible second might just be a molehill.

The Priory is always an interesting location in the winter - both in fog and with a bit of snow (when it turns up).
This was taken in 2012 - spot the Hare!

A very nice set - I particularly like the car. I agree with Peter about "147".

No new kit, but after much prevarication I decided to buy myself a copy of Lightroom 6, and a stonking great, fat guide/instruction book to go with it. Almost immediately, I can see that it is much better than PS Elements (which I have been using for a few years) for some things, but less so for others.
I'll also have to learn a new approach to storing and (re)naming images, but I think that it'll be worth a bit of short term pain for long term gain.

No. 1 for me also. I think that it's crisper than No. 2 - I find the scrolling headline a bit 'jarring'

I use this approach, and it generally works well. If I still get one sticking, I put a rubber band around the edge to provide that bit of extra grip.Not a recommendation, but if I was having this problem I would try running a pencil around the threads to get a little graphite on them.

Really like the last two - I think that the grain works really well with them. I'm not sure that it works quite so well with the first two.
