These are great pics, especially the Las Vegas ones, but may I make a suggestion?

Put the pics on different threads - it took flipping ages to scroll down to the new photos!

I hate to think how long MattV had to wait :shock:

Not at all! I'm a big fan of your photos, especially of places that I haven't seen. But if you split them up over separate threads, then it doesn't take ages to look at your new photos.

Quality is the word. Drove past the lake a few weeks ago in December, and it had risen hugely :lol:

You can get some really good cameras nowadays for about £150 / £200, does 90% of the job, I just point and click :lol:
The Above pictures were from a couple of my friends cameras which they took, I like a lot too !

about 5/6 hours up and down trip, depends, we stopped a lot of times for pictures, food, breaks etc.. Weren't going Flat out.

Dow Crag is 2500 Feet, and you loop round to coniston old man (2635ft). The pic above with the close up of the boat shows the route well. Bottom right to left, top left to top right ;)

Go for it mjd! 8)

It won't kill the database here - as they are linked to another site. Basically it'll just drain bandwidth from wherever they're hosted!
