@paultaylorphotography9499 the money in sport nowadays is mind blowing. If you travelled back in time to the early 1900s and told the players, in the future you would be earning £100k a week or more, they'd think you were crazy! I used to work for sky in the early nineties, when they took over and started charging to watch events and I wasn't sure if it was a good thing or not. It has brought a ton of money into the game but that creates a big divide between top the top tier and the rest. I'd have to Google it but am I right in thinking Leeds won the last ever division 1 championship before it became the premiere league?

@@paultaylorphotography9499 Thank you! Ah, he left me an old Canon AE-1 SLR and an Olympus 35RD rangefinder camera. Both are lovely cameras, although they needed some work doing to them to bring them back to life. One of them even had an old roll of film still inside - it had been shot 30 years ago when I was a child, and never developed! I managed to get it developed and scanned and could just about make out some very faded images of myself as a little boy at the local village May fair back in the mid 90s. Very fun!

Nice camera. That moment at dusk when the sky goes dark blue is amazing, you can capture lit buildings when the exposure levels out for both street lamps and the sky. I've seen some nice pictures of the effect but never really tried it myself. That's something to attempt, maybe take a train into Edinburgh and see what I can capture during the festival. That can be my next assignment. Sorry for your loss Paul, I'm sure your father will be looking down on you and your family and probably critiquing your work 😊.

Definitely not Eps-EYE-Lahn. Good looking design though. You will get 12 exposures, no doubt about it. The lens which renders images with plenty of sharpness and contrast, is fast enough for the format and the 1950s.
