3 days in Wales - Fri 7/8/09 "Vive la France"!

Post by st24 »

Well, being as the French had come over to see us I though it rude not to return the favour - and what a show they gave us! Easily the cloudiest of the 3 days but still quite pleasant. Nice to meet Mr Blake on the bottom shelf of the Bwlch. Not the most varied of days but the French made up for that and we still managed a Harrier.

A most satisfying set Geoff! Knife-edged Alphas are all great!

They mostly look unsharp to me. It might be because of the compression for the hosting site though.

Thanks all. Interesting comments re sharpness, must admit they look different on 3 screens I have viewed them on! They also look a lot better pre-photobucket..
