Edit: I've just read up on version III and it looks like a winner on the A7. They have made it quite a bigger bigger compared to the original LTM mount version that I have:

Mines on the far right compared to VIII on the far left. Still compact but mine's like a toy it's so small.

OOO.... lens p0rn.... be right back... ;-)

Sorry that was a bit crude.

But yes, £500 notes for wide angle. I quite fancy that...

So.. decided to go out bug hunting yesterday morning . Wasn't looking for the usual big butterflies and bees , but rather the little stuff everyone misses . Didn't find much , maybe they were at the beach . but I did find this thing...

The window over the door of Lacock Abbey, in Wiltshire, was the subject of - arguably - the first photograph. It dates back to 1835, when William Fox Talbot coated a sheet of writing paper with salt and silver nitrate and placed it in a small wooden camera, for an exposure that may have lasted hours…

Summer has hardly started here and already the signs of autumn approach with neighbouring fields already cropped....Comments always welcome.

I've seen that photo many times, but never the other side of the window.

I didn't get a chance to go out and take any photos today so here's one of my usual gloomy underground shots from last week.

One last bug ( for now).... No idea what this thing is , but it was awfully cooperative , staying on the same flower head and not moving around too much .

Thanks ... For me the neat thing about 'bug hunting' is that you never know what you'll find ( or get bitten by). Usually I'll find some type of critter I've never seen before.

Think one of his distant cousins paid a visit to one of my suits...
