Hi,

I found those earlier while looking over the forum.  These are the type of pictures I am looking for.  They are really great pictures and allow great detail in a model.  Its a pity there are not more of them, or I could get in touch with the guy that put them up.  He did a great job of getting those pictures.  There are many pictures of HMS Leeds Castle on the web but they are mostly of her at sea or from a distance.   There are few that I have found of her that show her detail.

Regards,
John
