wedding this weekend im afraid Lee then Sunday is Georges 4th birthday party so im on bbq and bouncy castle duty, maybe the weekend after next if your free? I have a pre-wedding shoot on the Saturday but that will only last a few hours and your house is on the way home, maybe pop round for a bit maybe...

sorry - that was a terrible piece of grammar on my part. I'm busy this weekend. on the plus side I do get my 1DX back again, I have to hand it to Canon their customer service (in my experience) has been first rate. I hope they've mended it properly now!

I think I may be around then - just got some time aside to sort the house out and pack up some bits ahead of the move

also in discussions to take in a Bearded Dragon foster too

Mark, I love these little critters.

Have you been watching the new Chris Packham series in the burrowers? The farmer who owns the land they are using is breeding them and introducing them back into the wild. Fascinating programme if you havnt caught it already.

Morning all...

I've got a full retail version of Lightroom 5 which I no longer need. Hasn't been installed and the Licence Key is unused.

Just seeing if any of you 'locals' would be interested before I pop it on eBay?

What are you looking for this Paul? I have LR4 so I can make use of an upgrade - however I know someone here who might be interested

Love those Vole shots Mark - beautiful creatures - any pics of you in your waders, bet that was a giggle

and for good measure some more bug pics...

wow! what a great comment that judge had to say about your photo, he must have been such a great guy..

or you paid him to say that

I had to laugh when I saw that as well. This contest seems fixed...

Will vote tonight Ian, can't get on FB at work.

Excellent stuff Mark, you're getting the hang of this photography lark!

anyone got any photo taking lined up for the weekend?

Nope, baby photos tonight which I'm nervous about but at the weekend I'm off to the Valley to watch Leicester play Charlton. No plans for Sunday.

They spend a lot of their time upside down don't they?

I've got a few images from last weekend to process (finally got the camera out), nothing big on this weekend however.

Nice voles Mark and bugs Lee.

Thanks the votes so far everyone, I am a bit behind so any more would be welcome

Bumps for me this weekend, 1Dx back from Canon fingers crossed it works Ok.

I paid £100 so I'd be happy with £80 if possible. Does that sound reasonable?

Didn't realise when I purchased it I'd get a copy bundled in with my new body too

Ooh...new body??

Yep, I blame the peer pressure on here

Got myself a 5d3, but unfortunately think it'll have to go back for exchange as having trouble with the joystick. Right and down actions are fine but left and up are randomly unresponsive and can cause a centre press action. I use this for my AF point selection so needs to be accurate. Be interested to hear if others have had any issues with this?

Oh how annoying! Nice upgrade though.
