Hey Wangi, better get your waders on and your camera out. I think there could be some photo opportunities out there and we need some on the spot reportage!

I dunno, why do people always ask Wangi to do these things. Just cause he's got a digicam and I still use film. (Mump, mump, mump.)

Now that's a good photo opportunity.

Alex - you still use film? And you prefer listening to records than CDs? Wouldn't you like to join the rest of us in the 21st century? :wink:

I'm not a photographer but I love my digital camera, a Minolta Dimage S414, for the instant results and the ease with which I can transfer the photos to my hard drive, manipulate the images and within minutes publish them to the website.

Anyway, it's brilliant sunshine now. This weather is completely bonkers. I'm heading to the gym soon and I'm not sure whether to wear t-shirt and shorts or a raincoat and wellies!

Put that way, it does make me sound a bit of a Luddite.

But I've been shooting using an SLR camera for a quarter of a century, and I'd be loathe to give up the level of control an SLR gives me over the finished results. Unfortunately, the digital version of my camera is still around Ã‚Â£600 and I can't afford it! But look on the bright side. It was over Ã‚Â£1000 this time last year, so maybe in another year or so...

As for the records. Don't misunderstand, I love CD. But my musical tatstes have always been somewhat - er - eclectic, and a lot of my records are simply irreplaceable.

When new technology is better than old - eg, the way DVD is better than VHS - I swap to the new. But film cameras, and vinyl LPs, still have a lot to offer.[/url]

A digital camera that i'm dying to replace... Urgh. You wouldn't beleive the spec of my camera! :cry:

Anyway I was busy getting wet on the Innocent Railway and down the Fort. But lets just pretend (again) this was this evening:
