Pity it was late, Clicker, cos it was my favourite. My partner, who is a collector of rusty objects, reckoned it was a top photo.

I stopped to look it also. Fascinating. Good choice.

Great to see photos of you all. Thanks for sharing.

What a great story!

Great topic. Well done with your win.

Correction: my new laptop is a HP. The shop I purchased from said they were moving away from selling desktops as laptops were just as powerful and more portable.

Thanks BP and Fuji. I ended up purchasing a Dell laptop with a solid state drive. I decided on the laptop - over a desktop - on the advice of the salesperson with expertise in processing large files. Plan to connect it to the 27 monitor I forked out for 6 mths ago. I'll set it up and see about calibrating it.

Thanks heaps, BP. I was thinking along these lines so it really helpful to have you confirming what I've picked up from reading reviews. Only one question, what a profiler thingy?

Thanks for the encouragement. I just ordered one on eBay. See how I go. Don't think I'm "cack handed" (though not sure what that means). Is that like being clumsy?

Any suggestions on buying a desktop PC for photo editing for under $1000 AU?

Thanks for the advice about sensor cleaning. My Nikon 7100 seems to have a spot. I'd been reading about DYI cleaning but was worried about causing harm. Think I'll have a go.

Congrats from me also, Chris.

My choice both times. Well done, Chris Lumix

Great topic. Thought we'd get some images of people who had consumed too much alcohol: a very common scene in Australia. Maybe not so common in the UK?

Great choice of monument and well captured, Simon.
