J.R.R. Tolkien: The Fall of Arthur
This book is recommended by Thygocanberra. I have a copy and will read with interest.
J.R.R. Tolkien: The Lord of the Rings
What can I say. My favourite book. I think I have at least four different editions.
R. G. Grant: Battle: A Visual Journey Through 5,000 Years of Combat
This is the dream book for wargamers. Literally hundreds of battles. Over 350 pages of full colour illustrations. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
John Gibson Warry: Warfare in the Classical World: An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Weapons, Warriors, and Warfare in the Ancient Civilizations of Greece and Rome
We all have a wonderful book with fantastic illustrations, that amazed us in childhood, and followed us to our grown up bookshelf. This is one of those books. (*****)
Antony Beevor: Stalingrad: The Fateful Siege: 1942-1943
In school we were taught such an English view of World War II. Now I have discovered the epic battles on the Eastern Front, truly gargantuan conflicts. This book is a great introduction to the Eastern Front and a brilliant history book. (*****)
thank you.
last night there was a big bank of cloud coming from the west - just got the first shot. The little 70-300 is a gem. Not that long afterwards it was raining.
the other 2 (Sunday night), the sky was completely clear and I did stability precautions - 2 second delay remote release, and shutter delay (I think that is what it is called). These are downsized images so probably would look better in full MO and high res screen - or printing. I haven't got anything printed for a long time. Maybe I should to see what the results are like.
100-400 - I wonder how much better that would be ? [SLAP SLAP SLAP]
