Prestwick 06 July

Post by Daveayr » Thu Jul 08, 2010 7:25 am

To think I once commented on hercs hercs and nothing but hercs.. After a VERY lean spell I finally got the chance
to try out my new camera the other day. Only to find out after our one and only movement had landed that the shutter
speed was too fast :'( :'( However I will post them anyway just to get Prestwick back on the board after a long break.

Slight wobble over piano keys. Cross winds were very strong and an Air France 747F even diverted to Heathrow

Welcome back Dave! :thumbs:

New camera seems to do the job fine, a quality movement for it as well (Peoria, mmmm). :thumb:

Looking forward to more Hercs (soon please!) :P

Thanks Ben/Andy

Have been on the site every day as always but had nothing to post. The new camera(D300S) is a big jump and am learning all over
again. Hopefully we will get some movements in near future to let me practice. These look so much sharper on PC so may look at
trying alternative hosting

Kind Regards to all (and Andy especially hope you are well.) :)

Dave
ps...ask Mildenhall if we can have our Hercs back please? :whistle:
