All taken at the VOC Sussex meet yesterday, at Bentley. Really cool place, well worth a visit, has a car museum, crafty tyoe things, huge wildfowl enclosure, and a miniature railway! Lens didn't permit getting them all in, but here is the right hand side, it was a huge turnout.

Hello from Sweden, drove there with V8 today, already came back from there too 8)

Your photos look awesome again Chris, nice new birds there too, them are fluffy :D

Here nature was not very kind, almost half of new birds died because of freezing weather coldest beginning of summer in 60 years or so.

Awesome ant pic! Though if that was in my room I'd be getting rid of it rather than taking pics :lol:

There were several of them crawling across the room, luckily those don't like human flesh too much, but I did check my bed quite well before going to bed.

Them jaws are quite large too :shock:

I think I should set flash compenstation to -0.3 or even -0.7, there is bit too much flash visible in pic for my liking.

More crawling stuff, I'm starting to suspect that this building made at 80's is quite bit more bug infested place than my almost 40 years older house :shock:

We have photo competition, but that does not suit for some other pics we take, so I thought that perhaps some others will be interested to post their not so much car related photos :)

Nothing special like the above excellent pics. This was taken about 7.00ish.

I name this piece "A portrayal of British Summer time" :shock:
