    Motorist faces jail for assaulting cyclist

    If you read what I wrote again, I didn't mention breaking the rules for s***s and giggles, I mentioned making mistakes. Which is the point - mistakes should not cost lives, but regularly do when motorists are introduced into the equation. If you drive (or cycle) for convenience, then you are...

    Motorist faces jail for assaulting cyclist

    It's all from the DFT, the pdfs are online, I chose not to post those as they are pretty solid with data. But you'll have to take it up with them/read the pdf. As 10% tolerance etc, you, me and every motorist are aware of this, drive at 25-29mph if its an issue. All cases? No. Most cases...

    Motorist faces jail for assaulting cyclist

    Don't get me started on Norwich! ;P BTW, love your work Andy, super stuff. Anyway, back on topic. Im pretty much of the opinion that all road user break the rule in equal measure. And the few articles I've read on the subject more or less confirm this. That said, the difference between...

    copying work process to other photos

    In camera raw - to the far right where you can make edits you'll see a little rectangle (its made of of 4 lines ontop of each other). Click that and goto "Save settings". The you can reload those setting into other images. Or better yet, use LR, this sort of thing is what LR excels at.

    Beginner Polarising filters (again)

    I have individual polariser on each of my 5 lenses - I find this works better than having a single large polariser that you have to move from lens to lens every time you change lenses... You can even add a Lee filter adapter to them and generally speaking it makes life a lot easier.

    Sleeping in the car

    Do it all the time, have a Mazda 5 - with the rear seats down you can get about 6x4 ft flat area at the back. I also own two Season 3 sleeping bags which I turn into a double sleeping bag. Works a treat. I would say I sleep better in populated areas. You car seems to go unnoticed when...

    Critique Blea Tarn

    Surprise view - Peak District

    cheers all for the positive words cheers minnnt, I think youre right. Not too worried about the halo, I think thats quite minor. But I have a habit of going a little OTT with vignettes. Ill tone that down a bit for when it goes onto my website. Appreciate you took the time to give feedback.
