    A shed and a bus go to the shops...

    Met up with the local cross-dresser to help him buy some high-top-shoe-boot things to match his t-shirt. Nope, I'm still none the wiser either, but the ornithology is always good at Bluewater ! Happened to take a couple of shots of his shiny Clio and all its amazingly mismatching paint. My...

    Fiesta ST Crash at the Nurburgring (clio camera car)

    ^ This, basically .. They are recommended for 97+ RON as the compression ratio is so high... ~11.4:1 IIRC ? Optimax all the time FTW.

    Sigma 10-20. Just how good is this lens?

    Bloomin' brilliant.. I've got the mk1 - the newer one has a lower F stop. For car photos, I think it's great: It also gives an awesome perspective on other random stuff too: Do a group search on Flickr for 10-20mm :cool:

    Major wheel wobbe :(

    WD40 on wheel nuts ????? You dont want to spray that anywhere near wheels - it will not agree with brakes at all ! Buy a torque wrench and make sure they are done up properly - i.e.: to the correct torque.
