As I ahve said before, having grown up in Yorkshire and lived in Grimsby/Cleethorpes/Lincolnshire for a number of years, your images really resonate. The airfield ones are particularly poignant. My uncle was a tail gunner on a Lanc and died over Holland. His final flight no doubt took off from...

PS. And is the Fresnel on the lens side?

This may be off the mark Gary but have you checked that the GG is the right way round? Sounds silly but the glass thickness can make a difference especially at larger apertures. Glad to hear you are making progress with the big stuff.

Feeble humour Gary I'm afraid. Sorry.

What a momentous event to witness, Gary. One of the very greatest achievements that has led to so much more - ISS, Hubble etc.

The process refers to a film processing technique omitting the bleach fully or partially. Don't think it is fully realised digitally but I think the NIK version is the more effective here. Nice old building with a typical corner turret so popular in turn of the century architecture and the crop...

Just so Bill.

That's a lot further east than I thought.

Wasn't sure about the geography Gary so thanks for that. So maybe not that hot then up there.

This is the sort of weather we are "enjoying" just now in contrast to what some of you guys are suffering. From the GPS I think we are immediately below Belarus which is much warmer I would guess. We struggle to reach double ºC some days.

I thought AI stood for artificial insemination at one time. Maybe it still does?🤔

I guess things have moved on so far as to make this impractical. Reading these comments it strikes me that the emphasis now as far as technique is concerned has moved from the taking to the processing stage and this is far more complex, there being so many alternatives, both in approach and tech...

I think I am getting how this is gong. From the comments so far it is similar to when I tried to start a CD based folio rather than a print based one back in 2000. The then current worries about viruses apart, it is clear that the screen image is no match for an actual print. As Bill says, a...

For many years I belonged to a postal portfolio in the UK and one in New Zealand for a while. I have also commented that these forums are perhaps the closest modern equivalent but with less structure. The value to me was always that the folio crit sheet members added to that accompanied the...

Thanks Gary - my very first camera about 75 years ago.
