Winsford Soul

Got lucky today . Managed to see a Fox at Pennington Flash. Steve

Great pictures as always Martyn. Not that I expect anything less from you. Hope the one arm bandit is recovering well mate. Steve

Fantastic Russell. Weather looked amazing. Steve

Having spent a good few years . Countless miles and lots of money promoting the old Winsford nighter i personally think its down to the promoters to make the commitment to the venue that they run. When big nighter venues cost thousands you have to be totally honest with your self about what your running and for what reason. I personally did it because Tony.s empress ballroom and Bretby country club where closing for various reasons and Winsford was on the verge of closure due to low attendance and I couldn't bear the thought of losing the third venue. So getting involved was purely and simply to save a nighter which i loved. I wouldn't change what I did . Couldn't do it now due to different work commitments. Steve

Thanks mate Steve

Swifty. I can see that they've gone to pot mate well I thought it was funny. Steve

Your garden pond ? Steve

I'm good thanks mate. Hopefully your keeping well. I would be more worried about the cliff falling on me in the strong winds. or damaging my camera and lenses Steve

Dave. Russell. Beat me to. its a Kestrel. Nice picture by the way Definitely need to go on the weights. I own 70 -200 f2.8L is usm mk 2. Hand held. Don't even know that I'm using it. I normally lug round a 500mm f4 L is usm mk2. Even that's ok for a few hours Steve

Thank you my friend. Your word's are very much appreciated Steve PS. I've taken your advice and entered three of my photographs into a competition. Will keep you posted as and when or if I hear anything
