Had a little time on my hands so I converted an old 16mm projector to a lamp, had to make a little AV show to help sell it, it's on Youtube so doesn't stream at the same quality as an Exe file. The link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn1jVFil6yw Eric PS just added another link to a recent show c...

Hi Paul As I said in my preamble, this shot was part of an AV show composed of our shots of Dungeness. It is a wierd place with shacks & ruins dominating the shingle foreshore. The shot I presented was my third attempt at the show, which is intended to portray the mood of the show. It was origin...

What a co-incidence, we've just come back from a holiday in Kent. One of the sites on my to do list was Dungeness which I've wanted to visit since my childhood when I read a book called "Disaster at Dungeness". The Dungeness images have been compiled into a surreal AV show but I won't spoi...

What about mine???

I bought this at a car boot sale in Weston SM last year with a view to converting it to a lamp. After cleaning it up & having a new mirror cut I sold it on Ebay as it was too good to break up.

My picture was taken during a holiday on Anglesy. It depicts the mooring areas on both banks of the Menai Straits at Bangor pier. I took this as it revived memories of a Christmas cruise from Liverpool marina in our Westerly Griffon Eclipse, with my mate Neil, who almost got hyperthermia during the ...

My entry is a picture of Simon King of the Hairy Bikers (poor mans Russel Crowe?). It was taken at a live recording of an episode of their show "Mum Knows Best".

Midnight Subject “Water Water Everywhere” In the same format as my last dissertation, please don't take my comments to heart, I find it difficult to be brief & after all, I know you wouldn't have submitted your ...

Hi folks the competition is now closed.
I did some preliminary pontificating, so I'll review that & come back with my final results.

When we lived in Leyburn North Yorkshire, the Library stocked a copy of AP, so while my Wife browsed the novels I browsed AP. The last periodical I subscribed to was Computer Active, but that was over 10 years ago. IMO most photography mags are just a vehicle for high priced advertising. I won't mis...

I started to read this topic, then almost fell asleep. I recently bought a Tesco Hudle tablet, which cost me £60 because we had some vouchers in hand and are or were at the time worth double. I looked at loads of other tablets before chosing the Hudle. One thing that stood out in the reviews was the...

Now there's a coincidence, just got my Nikon monthly newsletter, found this article http://inframe.nikoncompetition.co.uk/T ... country=uk
Great minds think alike? No excuse now.

I've thought about this for a couple of hours, looked through the ADAPS forum comp' archive & scoured the 'net. I had a shortlist of 3 & this one won. As the title suggests, anything to do with water, rivers, lakes, the sea, floods, fountains, even the water coming out of your tap. Unlike th...

Hi Lisa thanks for selecting my picture, secretly IMO it's one of the best I have taken. We were staying in a hotel near the Tyne & I wanted to get some pictures of the riverside. During the day I had spotted a small landing stage & said we would go back at dusk & get some shots. We got ...
