Thanks taxboy an hour from there gets me to the coast,everything is on the agenda. James thanks for the heads up on Horsey gap & Snettersham.

I'm going to Barnham Broom near Norwich at the end of next month for a week,anyone can recommend places to visit,apart from Norwich.Many Thanks.

The first time in two years were going abroad,I like snorkelling and would like to have a camera to take pics of a depth no more than 10m .Probably only use it once a year so nothing expensive like the Nikon Coolpix & not a throw away.Could anyone recommend anything.

Thanks everyone.

Were off to North Yorks National Park in a couple of weeks,I've a small list of places such as Rosedale Abbey,Farndale,Rye Dale Folk,hole of Horcum,Pickering Castle,Rievaulx & Whitby Abbey is there any other place you could recommend,thanks.

Thank you,problem being you have to book accommodation firstly,I'm looking at Rosedale Yorks.Nice area drivable to Whitby,Staithes etc.

I'm looking for somewhere to go in the UK in January to shoot,I would like to spend a week somewhere taking dramatic shots of rough weather,mist,sea spray over Lighthouses,anything the winter weather can provide.In the past I've done the Lake District,Northumbrian coast right up to Scotland...

Could anyone point me in the right direction to purchase a screw in Polarising filter,tried Hoya but they don't seem to make one,don't mind second hand. Many thanks

I don't have a problem with carting a Flipside with 4/5 lenses in plus my Vanguard Alta pro over one shoulder for a day.If it means reaching somewhere so be it and I'm 65 next birthday.

Thank you all for you advice,I knew the answer I wanted to hear,go for the 150/600c. I understand the weight problem,but to me it's not a problem. I shall look out for a second hand one I see CameraWorld have one at £600 with a six month warranty.

I have been promising myself a telephoto lens to go with my Nikon D5500 for a while,the standard kit lens 70/300 has its reach disadvantages. I've read everything about the Sigma 150/600 C and it looks a perfect match for me,why are you dithering you say ?. Well a second hand one is about £600...

I am looking to buy a camera I can use underwater,no more than 10 m down.Never done this before had a look at second hand ones on EBay,not going to spend more than £75.Has anyone any experience or suggestions probably only going to use one a couple of times a year when I go snorkelling. Thank you

Thanks Andrew this is what inspired me.Thanks Zendog I will check out your suggestions.

I am off to the Lake District next Wednesday for 4/5 days staying in Ambleside.I have earmarked a few walks : Ambleside,Loughrigg fell,tarn & skelworth bridge Elterwater,Skelwith force,Colwith force. Loughrigg Fell and Rydal water. If time and weather permitting I would like to go to...

AH ok ,i didn't realise that the Open box only lets you know the last images you've worked on, i thought after some time that would fill up somehow, no prob thanks.
