John. Many thanks for showing these pics. The welfare of our bird population is dear to my heart and ringing an important process to know how the species are doing, so thanks again.
The pics are beautifully done and show so much detail. You have obviously charmed them into co-operation.

I suspect, as I am sure others will do, that the hay is actually straw bales, not that it takes anything away from the creative shots.

This is Totland Pier. It has a craft workshop at the end. Not open to the public. At the shore end is my favourite cafe serving the best fish and chips to be had on this Island. The size of the chips portion enables you to retain a fair few and then toss them in the air for the gulls to catch. Good photography fun.
Lovely shot Emma at high tide.

Just paid an import, plus vat, plus handling fee of nearly £100 on a £350 purchase from USA.
As Mike says, unless you can get around this tax you are better buying locally.
However, received a £750 purchase from China and it gathered no tax. Just hope the relevant agencies are not Forum members.

Isn't it just so. We start off with 'age' and technology and slip quickly into 'youth' and technology.

I have not a clue what you posters are on about.

Is T9 an offspring of K9? Is this an up and coming robot? Which tele programme is this on, please? Can I grow a blackberry bush with auto correct? Does this make it bug resistant?

I kinda get the feeling that there are only the Doc and myself past the sell by date.

Doctorjeff.
As a member with advancing years I do shudder when a member tells me I should be using modern technology. I do also remember that I was once young and competent with the Commodore PET computer. Ha Ha.

Now!! I cannot remember how to operate a 'senior orinentated' mobile phone.
Press the wrong button and I am confounded.

And how about using the television control thing. So many buttons. Some do work, others do not do what it says it should.

I get by on my sense of humour.

Do you think the mods would let us use a symbal under our user name to signify our vulnerability.

regards Thoramay.

Geoff, Must be this 'age' thing. Needing to read it ten times before understanding it. Just my humour.

Tom. Have read this. Not too sure I understand it or where you download the programme.
I bought the camera two years ago. I do not know what firmware is on the camera. Is this critical?
I might just get my son to look at this.
Thanks for the link.

I am having focusing problems with my K10. It is front focusing.
Auto focus no longer gives a sharp picture. I need to manual focus.
I need to look for the yellow light confirmation then refocus forward until the light just blinks. I then get a reasonable result.
I believe that there is a third party software solution. Can someone point me to this with instructions.
If I feel incapable or make a hash, what are my other options, please?
