Happy Easter Steve

Great points all five thank you very much. It's not so much against the sky Steve,I feel the shots will be mainly land locked ,but nonetheless a great set of tips.

Naturally ask a question like this and it's back to grey and rain here,I really should know better,but manythanks for the time and wisdom all the same

take care
