Nice, at first glance looks like he is sitting in a wheelchair, great character study.

Just needs a tumbler of single malt, a cigar and a smoking jacket!!

I had the same problem as BARRYBOY, above, re payment to PORTUS through PAYPAL, but when I phoned them, they took a payment over the phone, very helpful, he even went to check the stock to see if one was ready for dispatch. Just the cornier, FED EX, let them down really.

I brought a Canon 5D3 and a Canon 135 f2L from PORTUS, arrived in perfect condition and as advertised. Only complaint was no tracking of shipment via FED EX, who were shocking, delivering the camera to a factory, which I went and retrieved it from!!, very good value though.

I have a SIGMA 18-250 am really pleased with it, together with the SIGMA 159-500, my most used, despite having a number of CANON L lenses, although the 18-250 won't work on the full frame camera. Really good value for everyday use.

I took this in the spring in jpeg, so cant do too much with it, anyway I like it, this is my first avian post.

Two friends invited me to Shelsley Walsh hill climb, what an ace day, this little beuty was in the car park!! I believe it is a Westland Healey convertible from the 1940's I thought the clouds looked a bit dramatic, and 10 mins later was soaked through! This is only the second pic i've...

A friend of mine suggested I travel to wales, climb 700 feet up the side of a mountain, sit there for 8 hours and wait for a plane to come by. Well I did and this bird went by, i've had easier days! Be gentle, this is my first pic on TP...

I hope that someone can help me, the main computer has been away for open heart surgery and has returned with a new hard drive. In the meantime I have been saving photos from CF onto the small netbook, saving to hard drive in CANON ZOOMBROWSER. The CF has then been reformatted to use again...

I was in the same position 18 monthes ago, basically CANON or NIKON on a budget, both very good. The thing that swung it for me was that there are some NIKONS that have the lens motor in the camera, and some that don't, and vice versa with lenses, I realized that I may end up with no lens motor...
