Hello Hin and welcome.

Very moving images, it takes a very special person to place themselves in a situation like that, and still see goodness in the world.

Nice effect, and a very detailed shot Mike, I might consider getting one to play with after I've had my K10 serviced.

Some people may not be too happy with giving out that sort of information. Sites like facebook are regularly monitored to gain personal information about individuals for identity theft. Although I agree it is very interesting knowing I'm part of an international community.

Having never used anything other than the build in flash, what would you use this type of flash for?

Jack the Bigma offer is so tempting, however I blew my hard earned on a K-7, DA16-45 and a DA55-300, I need more overtime before I can manage that one.

I'm planning a trip to Skye this year and apart from looking longingly at the inaccessible pinnacle (from ground level that is) and taking in the other hills n bumps. I would like to get near some otters and see a whale maybe. The conversion rings seamed the lightest and most financially accessible solution. Maybe a portable camo tent is the way to go, won't help with the whales, thought I would say that before some bright spark chipped in

Thanks Richard at 1910g I had better improve my field craft skills and get nearer to the wildlife!!!!!

They do a very respectable steak n ale pie in the Black Sheep brewery

'O' Yes, and its owned by a member of the Theakstons family again. He started the Black sheep brewery and moved next door, sold a lot of beer and bought back Theakstons.

Golden Badger
Blue Bird ( Best on a summer night at the Black Bull in Coniston after a hill walk)
Red Square
Black Sheep
Jennings Cumberland Ale
Hobgoblin.
