This last weekend was War on the Line weekend on the Watercress Line. We had a good number of people turn out dressed up in '40s gear, and a good number of "MOPS" (Members of the Public) come and see us. It's a good day out!

I spent the Saturday on Photography duties. I normally do reenactment photos in Black and White, as it suits the period more (though obviously colour was about). This time however I've decided to go Colour. I'm quite pleased with the results. I'm also really chuffed with the 5D2 camera, the sharpness and detail is awesome!

Did my first macro trips this weekend, the first to Abbotstone on a Friday evening. The second to Frensham Ponds on Saturday afternoon.

I decided to try out my Canon 5D Mark II. I'm unsure whether it will make a good Macro camera. My 40d may be only 10 megapixels compared to the 20 on the 5D2, but it isn't a full frame camera and has built in "crop". That essentially means that I can get tighter shots on the 40D than on the 5D2. Then again, as the 5D2 has those 20 mega pixels, there is a huge amount of room to crop in photoshop!

As it turns out the results are more than passable for a first attempt. However I'm still unsure which will turn out to be my macro camera of choice. The experimentation will continue!
