Nice shot.
Years ago we shipped our camera gear over & the guy at freight spoke "Liverpool". I'm still not sure what he said, but we got the gear delivered all right. :D

Camera's are only the tools to help us achieve the end result. You do not need expensive camera's and lenses to capture a good shot. You certainly achieved it. As I said previously great shot.:cool:

Scamptrus, nicely done! Don't worry about the price of your gear, a good photo is a good photo. Your ferry picture is great! My family roots are in Liverpool. My Father left Liverpool to come to Canada in 1928 at age 18.

The A620 was my first digital. I converted over only about 18 months ago. My wife loves using the A620 and it takes good pictures.

Gear: A bunch of Canon stuff and a bunch of old Olympus 35 mm stuff (OM-1, OM-2, etc).

Ken,

Thanks very much for the Liverpool photos. I have only been there once; back in 1971. I still have one Aunt there.

Best wishes,
