I might have to slip up to Maclean ! You seem to do interesting things every week.

Going to hospital Wednesday.I hope I can still laugh on Thursday.Anyway the doctor said he would get to the bottom of the problem!

Thanks for looking. I did have trouble getting the smile off my face when I realised I caught the shot at exactly the right moment.

Lots of shots after the event but shutter finger finally got it right.

I took this photo from the stateroom of the cruise ship in Darwin Harbour a couple of weeks ago. Straight from the camera. Cannon 650D 55 focal lenght, 1/60, 4.38 apature, 4.5 f @ iso 800.

To Black Bart, I have restored a couple of cars and the cars of the 50's are still the best! Fuel doesn't matter as we don't drive them everyday.Pity about the paintwork on the bonnet. I only started in photography to take car show pictures, but other photos seemed to creep in!

Thanks, I have learnt to format all cards after downloading. The experts said the card "electronics" had given up so no matter what recovery program they used there was no images left. We are going cruising next month up to Singapore then fly home to Sydney and next April back to UK and Europe to retake the lost photos. By the way what a great informative site!

Hi, just introducing myself. I live in northern NSW Australia and have recently retired.Love some of the information on the site and always getting hints on how to compose photos. Just purchased a Canon D650 and am frantically trying to learn all the setting before a couple of planned trips. A 8G card crashed with all photos from UK and Europe trip so now I will download each night to iPad or laptop so hopefully I will keep some lasting memories and won't have to do another trip!
