Thank you, and yes... you said the same thing last time I posted them (before Christmas I think!).

Thats a big boat you have there, any chance you could sail it down the canal?

This one, you mean? Don't think it would fit under the bridges...

Let me know when you are setting off and we will have them jacked up to the top setting, you might have to let a bit of air out of the tyres but that will do it. We did it before, when the Marie Celeste did the tour.

From the camera. The camera stores the details(or that is what I was told) - clever little burgers aren't they.

I have to say thats a lot of information about a specific picture, and very informative, even to showing a link to the type of camera with a picture. As you say clever.

I sometimes wonder how a specific picture was taken, and why mine aren't as good, now I know.

flickr allows you to look at a variety of camera's and from there you can decide whether the pics are any good or not....I think that the exif data would be useful if you had a DSLR.
This explains it far better than I ever could......check out the link.
What is EXIF Data?

[Margaret Pilkington]

On flickr you can hide the exif data if you want.

I've noticed with the photo's you lads are putting in they seem to be horseshoed which detracts a little from the end result. I take it this is because the camera doesn't auto-compensate for the distances, can it not be done manually ?

I think it depends on the angle you use, my camera has an option of 120* 180* and 360*, the wider the sweep the more pronounced the horseshoeing effect.

On 120* very little distortion, and 360* you, in effect, meet yourself on the way around, if you understand. I don't like the 360* for that fact.

I tend to use the 120* but use the 180* with wide open spaces

Todays perambulations took me from Clayton to Church to Rishton to Gt. Harwood back to Rishton then up the main road to Clayton;

1. Looking towards Rishton from St. James Church, Church.
2. Between Church and Rishton, looking down on Hyndburn Brook.
3. Still between Church and Rishton, looking towards Pendle on the left and the Coppice on the right.
4. Tottleworth Road, old railway bridge Gt. Harwood end.
5. Ford on Tottleworth Road.
6. Looking towards Coppice from entrance to Rishton Clayshoot.

Then home for a wipe down with some WD40.

Off work for a week. No money spare till friday(grr monthly pay) to go somewhere. Was a bit restless and bored so I took a walk up the coppice. Not the best of ideas since it started hail stoning !
