Tiptoe through the toadstools in 3 - magical mushrooms!
Nice reflections in 6, and I'm convinced that's a real owl :)

That is me. Did 2 scuba and 1 snorkel. There were thousands of fish but we weren`t allowed to take cameras on the scuba dives. I had to buy these photos.

You learn something every day, thanks for the info gents.

My uncle learn to fly in Canada during the war. He returned home after the war and after getting married he returned to Canada and has been there ever since.
Both him and Hilda are still alive and I sent him the Lancaster photos.

They live top of Gore road RR2 Kingston Eric.

I returned from my evening refreshments at about 9PM and the 400mm lens I used for the Lancaster photos was still on the Nikon so I popped it through the window and snapped the moon, I didn't bother with a tripod but if it is as clear tonight I will use a 800mm lens and tripod. Maybe see the flag the Yanks are supposed to have left there.
