Selection from today. Light was awful, so pics are too. Thanks to Dean and his Dad for the lift and the company, and also to DanO for lending me a camera after mine gave up the ghost. Nice to meet Koen and Rich this week, and to see a few other familiar faces.

Great work Dan, the sunset shots are all winners and the retro jet looks tidy in the low light :clap: :clap:

Shame about the weather today, often seems to be the way it goes for retirements- crap conditions for a crap day :(

Good shooting Dan. What colour blue are your gloves? (I'm not really interested, I just want to avoid buying anything that colour over the web!)

These are fantastic Dan but me, Dickie and Leuvering think there not as great as the entertainment at the Fox Inn in South Witham
