All legal!!! Mot passed today.

Just need to swap in a better gearbox before Suzuki Day.

Going out for a blast to see if the current one improves when it gets some oil moving round it.

Finally got round to buying myself a decent camera as I wanted to try my hand at some night photography.

Went out late this afternoon and ended up staying out late taking some long exposure shots of the truck in complete darkness with just the moon for light and a bit of light pollution from a nearby town to add some moody yellow to the sky.

These were the two shots I was most pleased with so thought I would share them here as the quality on facebook is crap!

Will stick the rest of them up in the gallery tomorrow if there is interest?

Its a Pentax K-R. Managed to pick up the twin lens kit at a reasonable price.

Did a lot of research before buying and it seemed to offer most of the features I wanted for the budget I had.

It also needed to be suitable for takeing MTB photos and as it does 6fps continuous burst that helped make up my mind. It hasnt dissapointed me yet.

Only just got in from a day of riding and offroad segways so pretty shattered but will stick some more shots up tomorrow.
