Prize Money totals £2.50 which I will donate to church funds

And who would pay for this ? Because of the cost it would have to be subscription in one form or another. Wasn't there an outfit called Spam Assassian or somesuch that was doing this?
Captcha doesn't work. It must be so easy to employ poor people to set up fake accounts by typing in the captcha words and I believe its been hacked anyway.

Very nice David (and I liked the colour pop in the previous set ) I think the viewpoint for #13 is a bit tight as the girl's head blends in with the thing on the rail and there is not much of her body showing.

Very nice

I'm really pleased I can apply for a loan then buy a kitchen or new lumix without having to leave the site

Vic I've sent you a pm

Thank you for the kind and helpful comments

Carl, I have seen Newbiggin looking better, during the last power cut

David, you wouldn't see many changes, "The Couple" and the new beach

Adrian, message sent for help

Alan, I had an image with all that building, the church, but too blurred to use, the moon is from the other side of the steeple and got squashed by the "courier". The church is a Newbiggin landmark so will try and get a decent image, it's quite well lit at night

Still very much on the learning curve but like to experiment.

But who will be producing it

Nice moon last night so experimenting with the Sigma 150-500mm
4 images + moon stitched together in CS5 C&C's please

I think a K-7 with a grip really looks the business too although I could only afford the 3rd party look-a-like
