Interesting light at sunset in Lincoln at the weekend. If you’ve never been its a lovely city with lots of history. We stayed in an airbnb rather than camping! Lawsons Bistro was excellent and at the bottom of Steep Hill.

Ah, Memories of leaving the dryrobe type coats (Red are far betterer) out to 'air' to get rid of the smell. Top tip, cool tumble dryer with those tumble dryer sheets works well.
So excited for the coming season for fair weather types like us!
Here's a rubbish photo (taken of my wife's computer monitor!) for @Bigsidavies ,
We put this owl box up in an oak tree two years ago, the tree is in a field of rough grass that we deliberately leave rough so that it encourages mice, voles and shrews. Good hunting ground for barn owls!
Mrs D put up a trail cam and we are very pleased to see this pair enjoying our work!

That’s fantastic. Might not be long before there’s some little owlets making some noise.
last night after the stormSouth Shropshire Hills?
Stunning scenery.
I watched the storm from west Shropshire.
Some decent pictures throughout this thread and wondering if these are all taken with cameras or phone cameras. Asking as my current phone is 5 yrs old now so looking for possibly a used Samsung S24 Ultra or similar spec Android camera with a phone attached? 
I think it's a bit mixed. All mine are done with a Samsung S24 with no filters, just ss nature intended.Some decent pictures throughout this thread and wondering if these are all taken with cameras or phone cameras.

Majority of mine are on DSLR. My old camera phone was a Samsung S7. Once some of my important apps stopped being supported I upgraded to a Google Pixel 8. Development of AI assistance in phone cameras is amazing over the last few years. Pixel cameras are very good but you will notice an improvement on any modern phone camera when you compare it to your 5 year old model.Some decent pictures throughout this thread and wondering if these are all taken with cameras or phone cameras.

Yes from Pole bank, it was a wild night towards Wales crystal clear towards Brum black skys with lightning
In comparison to film cameras of old and early digital cameras, most modern mobile cameras can deliver quite fantastic picture quality and I would be very surprised indeed if the Samsung S24 didn't fall into that category. I use a three year old S21 which delivers very sharp and well exposed pictures almost every time. That said, I do miss the lack of flexibility offered by the built in lenses. I'm an Associate of The Royal Photographic Society but after 35 years of using very high end camera on the job and in my leisure time (mostly 35mm and medium format 'pro standard' film cameras and full frame DSLRs), I now find myself in the position of not even owning a DSLR or mirrorless camera as I decided a while ago that I didn't want to lug heavy and / or bulky camera gear around any more. My camera of choice nowadays is a very small Sony RX1000vii which delivers quite astonishing picture quality compared to the old days and all in a tiny package - although I don't carry it around with me all the time, it does make a brilliant travel camera. That said, most of the time a mobile will do.Some decent pictures throughout this thread and wondering if these are all taken with cameras or phone cameras.

My son and I have been giving these a try again incl some FP4 black and white (yet to be developed). He loves it that it results in a tangible print rather than an image buried with 6000 others on a phone. It is quite expensive to buy the film and get processed. I looked at getting a modest digital camera so at least there is a memory card to get prints off which is a slightly simpler process however cameras on phones seems to have killed off this market segment too!
That said I probably just need to explore getting prints off the phones!
