    I'll go for amateur as well I think... Yet to have anything published in the mags, I'll set that as my benchmark for changing categories :lol:

    I would agree to pro class for videos but stills? Camera less than £150, never bother with tripod, but if Iain thinks my stills are that good then who am I to argue. :smile: So I'll put this as my still entry.

    OK Ralph, you got me banged to rights there, you're just a better snapper than me :( (Mind you, you'd fail on my distance criteria I think ;) )

    Maybe we need THREE classes Serious, Amateur and Snapper !

    Some tremendous images already , and come on less of this amateur stuff . There are efforts on here that stand way above material that is published . Don't be ashamed of it , let see it

    We could maybe make a tradition of it - with a bit of luck (and pending a solution to ongoing PC problems...) the Renown Repulse Restoration Group will have 'Full Forward' available this time next year for the 2011 competition :lol:

    My camera gear is pretty cheap but as I'll travel more than 5/10 miles I guess I'll have to put this in PRO.

    On April 8th 44871 & 70013 climb away from Bristol with the GBIII.

    Here is my Submission under 'Professional' due to getting a few photos published this year. Loaded this photo onto this site a 6 months ago and members seemed to like it. Was taken on the Leyton & Barnstable Railway in February this year.
