A sunny day in Cornwall. We are now at Gwithian Farm near St Ives - one of our favourite sites, just a short walk from the beach and a pub at the end of the driveway

Now that's what you call a go anywhere Motorhome. Seen at Sol de Calpe Austral, a new campsite in Calpe at N38.38.40 E00.03.37

 

[Speve]

Taken at our site at Kil,Sweden today,a really nice peaceful spot with loads of woodland birds so relaxing and for those that want it a golf course next door.

Another bluebell photo, had to stop for this one

 

[Janine]

Spent yesterday in Porthleven. Mill Lane Campsite was deserted apart from us - not surprising @£25 per night with very basic facilities but walkable into town for a pint

Turned right down the Lizard. Blowing a hooley and raining but the was a cream tea to be had

Sitting snug in the 'van now, eating cake and drinking vodka on Chy Carne Campsite @ £20 a night.

@Janine, I see you took the diplomatic route, photographing Barry before he applied either the jam first, or the cream first to the scone, thus avoiding a tirade of abuse from our Devon and Cornwall bretheren.

There was a sign on the wall with the instructions: 'Jam before cream - you're not in Devon now'

 

[Steve and Kat]

Well, we are at Fort William again, filling up with supplies and fuel, heading back home..

Met up with John and Catherine, Stagman on here by a coincidence...

Some other pics not posted yet..

And we found a lovely beach called Steve & Kat...

Nice. I'm no Bird photographer (That's my Dad's hobby) but I know enough to know that, "If it's not sharp it's nothing", when it comes to this arm (wing?) of photography. That really is tack-sharp. I'm guessing 400mm lens? (Based on the shallow depth of field).

Our pitch for the weekend.
Ty Mawr Park North wales.£20 a night

 

[Just smiffy]

Thanks for the comments.
The actual focal length of the lens was 420mm, this is a 300mm prime lens with a 1.4x teleconverter.
What gives it the reach is the fact that I use a mirrorless micro 4/3 system (Olympus OM-D) which is half frame so has a full frame equivalent focal length of 840mm.
I was lucky that the dunnock was very close to me so I could get more pixels on the bird, I'm not usually as lucky as that!

Yes I use a similar setup and find the top handle really helps steady the camera ....

BROKEN LINK

What a shame we can't see your image, especially as my very lovely friend owns it and I've yet to visit Haven't heard it mentioned on here and thought it's because it looks to be down a steep grass hill.
