Wonderful photos, and if I'm not mistaken at exactly 4 mins, its Headingley for a cricket match and they were still parking their bloody cars on the rugby pitch !

Any idea which rugby ground is on around the 11/12 second mark?

I'm not certain but the old Twickenham used to have a two tier stand just like the one in that shot ?

Not sure if this belongs here, or "funny/interesting things..." but it's a very interesting look back in time.

Marvellous.
I can see I'm going to enjoy wasting a lot of time browsing that.

I thought it was The Stoop looking at that pumping tower.

It's the original Big Twickenham, not the Stoop (I cheated and looked at the captions !!)

You can pick up Photoshop Elements of Paint Shop Pro for around £80 for the latest version, both will do what you need.

Or you can pick up The Gimp for £0, and that will also do what you need. I use it all the time, and haven't found anything yet that I am unable to do. That gives you an extra £80 to put towards your new hardware!

Downloaded gimp for free.
Purchased the Nikon d5100 with kit lens for 450. And also a tamron 70mm to 300mm lens 50 quid. Happy days. Now to start taking some photos

When did the Gimp start processing RAW files?

Isn't there a plug-in that allows you to do that ?

UFRaw is the plug-in for RAW files. I use in on my netbook but use Paintshop Pro on my PC.

Both Corel paintshop pro and Adobe Photoshop Elements have trial versions available for download.
