Hah, you've met your match! I'm not the best person to converse with ether. I returned to my shell when I quit running pubs. I was good to put your face to the name and meet the legend himself :p .

I got home at 19:38 (3mins after england scored X( ) with what has to be the worst sunburn I have experienced in my life! It burns!!!!!

I've got over 1300 shots from Brize today, so I'll post some pics when I work out how to convert from RAW to jpeg (or whatever....)

The new camera.................I love it (now I need to purchase a Bazooka to stick to the end of it to keep up with the more well endowed ;) ) I got 1302 Raw 18mp shots and the battery hadn't dropped a single bar! I'll even post some VC10 pics just for you Xpl.

Lastly, the Red Arrows were brilliant today, sorry............Near perfect! The tightest formation flying I've seen from them for a while :ymapplause: .

Why thank you!

One question, why do you take in RAW, what do you intend to do with the photographs you take?

Simple...........I forgot to change it :ymblushing:
All the shots I took were done in out of the box sport mode, I didn't get too long to play with the settings before yesterday. Also all the props look static, so I need a bit more practice & fine tuning to ensure I can get that slight blurred look.
