Digital Camera and a Computer

[John Ledger (ACA)]

What would i have done to have both of these toys in my best years instead of a film camera half the time i could not be bothered to take.
All those memorable catches not there to see but alas thats progress

I had a collection of 4,000 colour slides nicked in 1988 John.

I still feel sick about it today.

I have a collection of 4,000 cloour slides that I "obtained" in 1988 and I still feel sick to this day when I look at them and the hidious bloke holding most of the fish.

hahah
Was the hideous bloke wearing a big stupid hat ?

That's very cruel.

John, the catches are in your memory and that's all that counts.

[Lord Paul]

Yes ED do you know him?

Why would he want 4000 photos' of him with sticklebacks in jars and minnows- there's a 4 inch long barbel of about 1lb proudly held to the camera and a carp of aroung 5lb with pb on the back. There are several that appear to be of a small, and I mean very small hairy worm with a purple head, what's that all about chaps?

There's also another 400000 photos of large ladies wrestling in gravy mark " property of D" Who can that be?

I know what you mean John, but even when I took my film camera, the pictures did'nt always come back the way I was expecting them to.

I've kept a fishing diary and a photo album since I was a nipper. Unfortunately, some of the photos taken in those early days are of poor quality, whereby the angler and/or the fish are out of focus or not in frame. The trouble was you did'nt know until you received your photos back from the developers.

Nowdays, the digital cameras are virtually idiot proof and you can view the results straight away.

Transfering pictures to your computer is simple enough and the quality of the images are superb.

Trouble is, I find that most of my photos I take with todays digital cameras are more scenic than fish shots, which probably says more of my fishing ability, than me being the next David Bailey!

You can afford to take more scenic shots today, because they cost nowt!

Yes M'lud I have had the misfortune to meet him ...

He also has a tattoo on his left shoulder - it's a heart with bluebirds and the initials D W entwined with African violets ....
