Why should we as it is a hobby?
To recoup some of the costs of an expensive hobby? I have sold three prints of my "Shetland Ponies at Lamer Park" image which more than paid for the extra copies I had printed to give away as Christmas presents... Why should we as it is a hobby?

An update
As I have passed 20,000 views on Flickr I thought I'd have a look at my top twenty images.
13 are pictures of cameras including the top 5
1 is of me using the Horseman
The most viewed image not of a camera is my photo of the fountain in Bucharest taken with my Lubitel 2 on HP5+
Of the six pictures, three were taken with my Lubitel, one with my Pentax ES and two with my K20D.
Funny old world isn't it?

Sorry for your loss. My father was in the Navy too and also drank rum chasers! What ship did your grandfather serve on? He looks like he knew how to have fun.
Best wishes, Kris.

During my stay in Manhattan over Christmas and New Year I decided to take a series of images of abandoned Christmas trees on the roadside. I used my LX (loaded with Delta 100), my new FED2 (loaded with Kodak BW400CN), my Lubitel 2 (loaded with HP5+) and my K20D (loaded with an eight gig memory card).
Here are a few of the ones shot on my LX. Some of the others can be found in my Flickr photostream.

Ahhh... single malt. I consumed a bottle of Jura Superstition over the Christmas/New Year trip. The joys of duty free...

The 11A I'm using is a M42 mount. Going to market today I noticed a Pentax Super or something, it had on it a 50mm f1.4 PK mount? Anyone know whether its decent or not? The aperture certainly is something interesting. Rather low price too. Anyone know much on it, and its value?
It could either be a Pentax ME Super (very common, cheap as chips but non-the-less a nice camera) or a Super A (not quite as common, still fairly cheap, equally nice). If the 50mm lens is a Pentax one, it'll be worth several times more than the camera and is certainly worth having. The 11A I'm using is a M42 mount.

By the way starting a sentence with "but" is wrong.:wink
