My planned photographic weekend.

Friday - pick up repaired 20d and test it. As it failed in under 200 shots I'm not impressed with Canon's build quality yet.

Pack my newly purchased item to prevent me having my camera bag with me and getting in the way all the time. Bought a US forces tactical vest from a local army surplus place. Almost exactly like this one. Filters, mp3 player, batteries, memory cards - sorted. I wanted a black one, got a urban camo one.

It was £60 cheaper than the black one though!

Saturday - Duxford. Geekout day for me. As I volunteer there I tend to spend a lot of time around the aircraft, but rarely get to look at them. Only been in the fully opened Airspace hanger once *and was not impressed*

Looking forward to spending some time there - hopefully it won't be too cold.

Also - trying out the vest.

Sunday - this is going to be the difficult day for me. Armistice Day, Remberence Sunday, anniversary of Grandad's death and I'm spending it at the Cambridge American Cemetery.

Going to see if I can find my relatives there this time as well as doing some general photography. Same as I did last year really.

Could be an interesting weekend for me.
