Re: Ceratiomyxa poroides: A Delicate Rarity
Cheers Harold, I'd already found you over there; I was trying to work out if you had them in an album on the site that I'd failed to locate as I'm not a member over there.

Re: Ceratiomyxa poroides: A Delicate Rarity
I do like these macro fungi/slime mould photos.
Are they in a separate album at Fredmiranda, or do they only appear in individual posts there.
I'm enquiring, both for myself, and aa couple of...

Re: Loose the 'sticky-out-strap-ends'
I think RTFM might be the acronym for this methos.
See "Getting Started" page in most of the Olympus manuals.

Re: Political: We're doomed, Captain Mannering...

Re: Political: We're doomed, Captain Mannering...
If it does become necessary, to close the thread, which I can well understand, all I would request, is that it be locked rather than deleted.
That way it will soon drift off the front page and stop...

Re: Political: We're doomed, Captain Mannering...
There's a lot of links within the links as well; it's a very long read, and I don't claim to have followed them all by any means.

Re: Tamron 350mm Catadioptric Lens
I set mine the same; when I predict a problem, on very rare occasions, I remember to take my non-photochromic safety glasses.
The trouble is that with a bit of exercise, especially in cold...
