Well, at least I am excited on this horrible grey and wet day!
The new camera (Canon 400D, 18-55 and a 70-300 lens) turned up today.
I haven't touched an SLR for around 2 decades (fairly sure I was around 13 last time), so I have been trying to have some fun. Obviously most are scrub pictures at the moment, but it's very wierd trying to remember ISO and F stops, only to find the camera trying to do it all for you...
Anyway, here are two I thought would be different from the norm - apologies they are both of the same subject!

(I realise the second one is blurred - as I said, playing with it!)
PS Thank you to everyone for their advise in a previous thread.

Vestax indeed - good eyes. It's about 10 years old now.
The shiny finish seemed like a good idea at the time but is actually a terrible smudge/fingerprint magnet
Currently it's sat under an inch of dust along with my 1200s as I haven't used them for ages! £thousands spent on kit and records that is all now pretty much worthless. A bit like photography really!

I learnt on a silver version....
As for everything else. Spend some money, record all the vinyl on to digital, and sell it on eBay. I made just under a grand doing the same, and I still have 3 full boxes. You'd get a few more hundred for the players, and then you can spend it all on CDJ's, a small mixer, and have your cake and eat it!
