I have just been viewing David Tyler and Pete Lawrence images at F42ish.

not the last i hope.

mars is so low here it drags the ground almost, might have one crack at it in dec just to say i did it, but not expecting great results.

i ll leave it to the pros

That's a nice start Anthony. I'm sure there'll be more to come very soon!
