All da way 2 >> Tiddlywinks.
Doesn’t seem to be much interaction between the customers d00d.
Big city cafe society, not like that up north. Maybe Leeds…
They could be talking to one another via satellite, having forgotten traditional methods.
Channel 4 @ Leeds.
Leads Yorkshire. Floating on Aires.
Double Entendre. OR Wat.

This is how I took the above flower photo. Using a long 300mm (600 in full frame terms) lens at 15ft away, the camera was mounted on a tripod. To stop any camera shake I used a wireless remote shutter release unit. that wireless unit is about the best one can get operates to around100+ ft away .
Exif data on flower photo for those interested

Do you employ a sherpa to carry all your gear? 
No Bruce we have cars instead of kangaroos to carry our gear in
But what happens if you go to photograph something you can’t drive the car too & you have to hike there?
then I don’t go

On my walk this morning the top of this Bunya Tree looked lovely as the sun rose (it is a type of pine tree)
It is a native of Queensland but grows quickly, is tall and very distinctive ( the trunk of this one is over a metre in diameter)
Early settlers used to plant one on their property as a guide for travellers to indicate where there was habitation. This one is in a churchyard but there is another fairly nearby in what used to be part of the local showground but is now a council community centre and library.
