This is an image of the female Red-breasted Merganser when she wasn't snorkelling as in the last upload.

Canon 600mm on a Gitzo 1348 cf tripod and manfrotto 393 head
1/1250@f13 iso 400 raw
Processed in Capture One Pro and CS2 because I can't get CS3 to load on my PC and it is bugging the hell out of me!
Don't know if you're experiencing any other crashes intermittently, but if you are, you may have some RAM problems. Had issues loading some software, not all, but truned out to be faulty RAM. Just an angle to look at before throwing it out of the window!!!
Ty for the input Graeme. I haven't got any faults on my system at the moment and all the existing applications run fine. But I can't even get the CS3 installer to get past the first setup window.
The system is XP Pro running with 2Gb of DDR2ram on a Intel Core 2 Duo Processor X6800 powered motherboard. I think I'll probably fit another clean h/drive and try to install it on there
