I would classify you as a "proper photographer." I felt like I was there, great photos, thank you.

Lovely set of photos again David, for me the favoright has to be the Fowler ploughing engine turning in the road, an unstaged scene that could have been 100 years ago, although it could perhaps be a later engine than it would have been then, I know you do a lovely line in oil painting conversions, wonky 4 storey houses are 1 thing but even I dont think wonky wheel spokes are going to look right, better not give them too much of a laugh.any way we have Howard White from Owelsbury,Hants not so far away from me that does some lovely paintings mostly Showmans, my dad and uncles bought a Wallis engine from his Grandfather in 1929, and I still have the original buff log book for it engine number 7114.new on 14/6/1910 still in steam in 1952, nice that his family worked with tractions for many years and he still has an interest in them. kind regards Jimmy Vardy.
regards Jimmy Vardy.

Taz,

Funny thing is I am into photography and use photoshop all the time, I use to do PR in a bike team for many years and when I was bored I use to get a track pass and go track side and take pictures of bikes, I also do wildlife pictures etc.

But come on we have to all know are limits. Making my wife look good with phootoshop is even beyond my skill set.

Nic if you read this and you let me live......I am only joking....LOVE YOU... (A man has to eat)

Fantastic pictures as usual David. Like the one of the ploughing engine!

Great day on Saturday, wish I could say the same about Sunday!
