Hi to all,

Canon 40D , 500F4IS , Gitzo1325 , Wimberley v2

All comments welcome

Kind regards

Hello Andy

Great shot of a bird I want to do this winter and will risk it at filey brigg, once got in big trouble there so this time I will be careful. Anyway how are you I met Glyn and John at Bradgate the other week, nice blokes.

Yes , Glyn and John are smashing blokes and good photographers to boot , I've learned so much from them both , I think we'll be going to Filey sometime in november for the Purple sands , might see you there.
