Back in 2006 I said I needed to crop the first image in this series and then repost. Well, nearly 3 years later, I've finally got around to doing it!

Taken with my little Olympus compact after a days walking, about 4.00pm in the afternoon.
Hmm, interesting. Accomodation probably not a problem, as we'd caravan, Joanne (my wife) would be quite keen on this trip as she is an ex german language teacher, and recently has only been back their on business with no down time. Would it be beginning or end of the month?
Corinna, not a problem with this moving to general.
My polariser is about 20 years old (!!!!!) and has progressed from being used with my superb Olympus OM 10, through a good few years of inactivity, and now is used with my equally superb Olympus E500. Funny how some technology doesn't...
