Yes,it's nice to see them up close now and again - instead of just radio calls as they transit to and from callouts

This is why: One line of reasoning behind the proposal was that it might encourage more postings and thereby increase the membership.

Re: Battery grips
Agree with Chris
I prefer the extra weight on the body when using a big zoom or prime - less 'front heavy' and easier on the wrist.
I bought genuine Nikon grips - a bit pricey for all they are though.....

A crazy scheme all right - but one I wouldn't mind seeing through the lens myself.
Nice catch

Enniskillen Airport is sometimes used for motor events during the year,and this weekend it was used as the service area and also for a few stages of the Ulster Rally 2013. This Grand flew in earlier today,and I caught it departing this afternoon http://helicopters-ni.smugmug.com/Helicopters/Private-...

What a great set of pics!
Unfortunate that these fires break out of course,but a good opportunity to watch all those guys at work.

Re: Dauphin off the coast of Cornwall. May 2013
Great shot and a pleasure to see something so different... :thumb: Thanks Noryport. Technically the photograph I'm adding today shouldn't be on here (Sorry, but it doesn't feature the aircraft) but it gives a nice idea of what the camera was seeing. http://i1361.photobucket.com/albums/r666/OurManIn...
