Excellent set Larry!

I especially like the images where you caught them flying away from the

Thanks Dan, and all else that commented and looked.

I did manage to go back and clean them up a bit.

Also, is there an easy way to tell when, or which, teleconverter is
sharper than just cropping a photo?  Is there a list of good or bad ones?
Or since there are only one or two that will work with autofocus, the
question is answered?

PESO: Another dog picture.

The girl is 15 weeks old now, and is growing like a weed. We had her at 
the vet yesterday for her last parvo and rabies booster, and she weighed 
in at 18.5kg.

It's likely this is a volunteer run short line. It costs money to build

Blooming typical. We put all that effort into making them perfect and
you go and use them in combat conditions and spoil them :-)

Well well! No, I visited Kingston only once. I was based at the ex
Folland plant in Hamble near Southampton. This was in the Hawker
Siddeley days just prior to nationalisation and the establishment of
British Aerospace, so 1969 to around 1978. I think the Hunter work, by
then, was for a refurbishment programme, maybe for the Swiss airforce.
Hamble didn't have an airfield so only made bits and pieces. Some of
them were significant including most of the Harrier fuselage and
Trident wings and tailplanes. There was also a sectioned off bit
making chunks of Blue Streak missiles, but I'm probably not supposed
to talk about that even now!

Cheers, Chris

PESO the joys of creative cropping

[Larry Colen]

Two couples were both dancing in the frame of my camera. This crop 
includes one and a half of those couples because I was amused at the 
resulting composition:
