    Haven't been shooting much this month - so I'd better just chuck in "old faithful" ...

    It has been raining a lot here this month. And it's raining today!

    Yes, but I took the advice to leave off the right hand tree!

    "Black Perspex" ...

    ... thank you (I've been looking for a black tile, without success, for this effect!).

    You might have trouble getting a tile big enough. I got my perspex from an Ebay seller called Plasticonline. They are based in the UK. They are pretty cheap, and it's excellent stuff. Here http://shop.ebay.co.uk/plasticonline...d=p3911.c0.m14

    Suggest at least 500x500mm to get the camera angles. A4 isn't large enough. 5mm is better - 3mm might warp in time. Scratches easily, but a great reflection. Coated on both sides. It's better than a mirror because a mirror 'ghosts' due to the reflection bouncing off the back coating.

    I'm sorry, what does the word "holiday" mean? (is it something to do with time away from the wife and kids fighting?) (or is that work?).

    So that's the attraction of standing thigh deep in freezing water in the dark for several hours

    .. and there was me thinking you liked photography
