Thanks for looking Chris,

There was mention of a spitfire at an airshow recently, I thought I heard and saw one while in Llandudno around the 21st or 22nd of July, could that be possible, I am no plane spotter (that was my stepfathers realm) but the only similar plane I have seen flying is the mustang and this certainly sounded very nice but alas I had no camera nearby.

the discussion of drones was intersting as there was a notice pinned to the gate saying that they were using drones to do a geological survey (Bangor university) and they named the "pilot" etc and it all looked very efficient.

However unpiloted drones and cars are quite a worry for me especially as I am in the software business.

Thanks, Ian.  There’s a good variety of shots there!

I think that there is a “creamy" quality to shots with the Fuji sensor.  I have the 
“consumer”-grade zooms (16-50 and 50-230) and the quality of the images is similar to yours.

I really like your 500mm shot, and that stilted crane tender is a rather smart 
device.

The stone with pointers to places brings back memories.   A friend (a pretty 
one) used to live in Dwygyfylchi near Penmaenmawr while I was learning to fly 
the Hawk at Valley.   On a night flight I decided to visit the village and got 
rather low and rather too close to the hill next door.  Foolish person that I 
was!
