I’m getting a bit obsessed with moths, they are amazing. Here are a few that have turned up in the moth trapView attachment 203123View attachment 203124View attachment 203126View attachment 203127

Absolutely brilliant photos.

I went to Melbourne zoo yesterday, is it cheating to get photos at the zoo?

Not posted any photos on this thread before, but hope to put some up in the summer. In the meantime, I am having a major home study overhaul and I need to create some space. I have a ton of photography magazines that I love, but I need to find a new home for. I've got a couple of local camera clubs interested but no firm offer to take them off my hands yet. Hate to just sling them into recycling and I've given up with my son asking his college ; -)

These are; Full Photography Monthly subscriptions from 2004-2009, which then became the excellent Digital SLR Photography magazine from 2010-2014 ish onwards. I also have some Nikon Owner subscription mags that I may also look to move on. Pics below. I live in Shoreham, so if anyone's interested in them, then please let me know. Not looking for any money – and it can be a collection job (I'm not posting haha). Or you may belong to a camera club that may appreciate them? Cheers.

My old (and fungus-prone) rose is doing well this year.

This peony was purple last year. Weird.

Some numpty decided to ride the scenic route from Lewes back to Worthing over the weekend. The stretch from Juggs Road (arf) to Castle Hill (?) is beautiful, but brutal

Took the dog out for a walk tonight, local footy ground had their floodlights on tonight. Lit up the autumn trees along the river and the reflections were great too. Just snapped it on my phone.

I was on this thread a few weeks ago bemoaning my inability to capture insects in flight. Well, as Gary Player famously said, the more I practice, the luckier I get!

One of the churches in Geelong and a couple of OLd Geelong Gaol.

As they say, the best camera is the one you’ve got on you…nice shot

I took this one in 1982 on the Pier during my first year of a photography degree. I was 22 at the time and 43 years on and upwards of 3 million pics taken since, it's still one of my favourites.

I thought my 46,000 was a bit too many. But I haven't the time to weed them down....

Kelham Island, Sheffield and Kilder Scout.

I used to live just round the corner from Kelham Island (and a couple of other bits of Sheffield.

None of these are recent, they're all from around Covid lockdown time. None of them are good either, you just sent me off on a nostalgia trip.

Redmires Reservoir

Shalesmoor, the Cathedral and Fargate (taken almost exactly where the "fountain down the road" mentioned in Disco 2000 used to be)

Love that modern development, both the quality of architecture and planting, reminds me of Dutch and Danish schemes. Cambridge has gone down that route too. Far nicer than the New England ‘Quarter’.
