    I thought of doing some before and after pics but the one yesterday is before really. You need it to be for this year.

    Gary your pics are very clear how many pixels does your camera have? Researching a new one.image

    Thanks Flo-perhaps if individuals on this thread have a picture they are especially proud of -they could use the quote facility to post it over over there-saves doing all the donkey work againimage

    Have asked Pam to put some on as wellimage

    You don't need vast amounts of pixels to have good quality photos, Bjay. My little old Canon Ixus with 5mp takes a lovely pic.  A lot of people make mistakes with focusing - I do it myself - then it's a fuzzy result. Gary protests that he's nothing special but he is a very good photographer!

    I agree Flo Gary takes lovely clear photos.

    Geoff like lots of pounds please

    I have just ordered a raised bed same size as the other 3 - 4ft x 8ft

    I'm now ondering how the hell I'm going to fill it. The others were filled with a mix of mushroom compost, multi purpose compost and the top soil that was saved from our extension being built. It's the top soil that's the problem. I have about a week to think about it image

    My camera is quite an old one, so doesn't take as many gazzilion pixels as the latest cameras. It actually takes 4288x2848.

    But for all the photos I upload onto here, I reduce the size down to 900x600. Uploading huge photos onto here just slows down the pages for people who don't have fast connections.

    How much do the pounds in your pound shop cost, Geoff?

    Gary, I so agree on the photo sizing! Some threads I give up on because someone posts half a dozen photos, the first one is revealing like a very slow roller blind and my broadband is squeaking in protest!!

    Bjay, did you order your raised beds online? I've been thinking about constructing some from scratch but these days jobs like that are just too much hassle!
