Me and a friend from another forum are going into town tommorow too with the sole intention of getting lots of shots

If you want, we could arrange something and have a brief meet up, just to chimp and the like

What a day. I arrived at 10:40, waited for an hour for it to start and then spent 5hrs shooting. I was lucky not to get a parking ticket too

It was fun though. I felt like a pap running around trying to get shots and things. I'm totally knackered after holding my camera up for 5hrs solid. Perfect day for it too. Not a cloud in the sky. The only problem with Liverpools setup is there are no vantage points. Well there kinda are at the railings, but if you move to get another angle its all crowds.

I would also like to officially say that the D70 is a girls camera. Every one I saw with it was a girl

Annoyingly they were all attractive girls, but that still doesn't stop it being a girls camera

Wow, 5 hrs holding a camera - thats dedication!

Its the year 4704 going by the chinese calendar - how does it feel to have aged 2698 yrs?

So i'm actually 2725 years old. I don't feel a day over 2724. The BBC's shots from Liverpool. I'm sure we can out do them
