Last night's moon and stars........

Agreed - the overwhelming majority of photos I post on here are taken with my phone. I did have DSLR's previously, but now make do with a Lumix FZ1000 / TZ70, when a bit of zoom is called for. I can't remember who originally said it, but the best camera is the one you have with you

A few more from this afternoon........
-
Visited Attenborough Nature Reserve this afternoon ............
-
This morning's sunrise........
-
Also took the opportunity to visit the newly renovated Bennerley viaduct earlier. BBC news article
-
Howden Reservoir was still overflowing earlier, although Ladybower has now stopped.

Each to their own I guess, although at least it's half price presently😁 My initial post though was regarding it's stated anti-corrosion properties (related to E10). Based on my observations using E10 petrol in my 3 cars I have reverted to E5, given an apparent fall in MPG with E10.

Just came across Redex at half price in my local ASDA and noted they are now advertising it as 'protect against corrosion from E10 petrol'. Have used it on occasion since watching the video on fifth gear some years ago.

Think I upset the seagulls!

Different venue today, but lovely late afternoon sunlight.............
-
It was generally about things that Fly today.......... Also came across this duck with which was twice the size of all the others!
-
Clumber Park was lovely in the late afternoon sun............
-
I reckon the duck could well be Leucistic?
-
I'm very superstitious so had to say good morning to it!
-
Colourful sunrise this morning......
-
Had my Jag MOT'd today, which was rather nerve-wracking, given it was the first one in my ownership and the car is 20 years old! Happy to report it passed with the addition of two new rear indicator bulbs (the old ones were deemed to be not sufficiently yellow) and I got away in time to catch the last embers of the sunset.

Very clear sky tonight
-
It was fantastic just to be out at 4:40 and it not be completely pitch black👍 Remarkably colourful sunset.........
-
It's a family tradition here too - 2023 tickets just booked🤞
-
A couple of my recent efforts with black and white (mainly Jaguar related😁)
-
Sad news indeed, although she lived to a very decent age. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-59816052 Loved her Black & White photography, the attached being a particular favourite
-
And of course we came across the obligatory car stuck in the Ford!! The Volvo initially appeared to struggle to move the Mercedes A-Class (much wheel spinning) before one of the bystanders called out 'is the handbrake on?' He's behind you!
-
6 second exposure. I spent ages waiting for the right moment and then a duck swam by and ruined the reflection😠
-
Rather grey here too, although just a little colour in the sky when the sun set
