    Lovely, Pal, Honey! I just don't see how you guys (and gals) get so up close and personal?

    As usual a great set of pictures, I will have to start taking my camera out when I walk the dog as I do come across so nice creatures. Yesterday I whilst walking along the beach I came across a porpoise, which was sadly dead but fascinating anyway, good job I didnt have my camera. Must have another look for my tripod.

    JarBax, I was just over at my friends house to take photos of all the wildflowers they have on their 1.25 acres ... and yes, left my camera at home! [​IMG] Will have to go back later in the week!

    Do you think we went to the same school of photography?

    Thanks, Marley, I was chuffed when I encountered that little crowd! :D

    Come on, strongy, I've got a nothing camera and haven't got a clue what I'm doing ... :eek: ... you've got to be better with whatever! [​IMG]

    I've even ventured into the "other" comp this month and I certainly haven't got a clue what I'm doing there!

    But, it's fun doing it, playing around with the pictures and then saying ... "here goes" ...

    The camera came today.... but I (and inhouse advisor)was at work and Citylink won't deliver a second time so I now have to go to Bournemouth to collect it. :( My fault, I should have given my work address.
    I'll have to go out at the weekend and see what's about, don't get many weekends off this time of year.
