SALUTE 2013 Walkthrough

For those of you who were unable to attend this year, here is a complete walkthrough of SALUTE – the annual South London Warlords (UK) event. This is the largest show on the UK's wargaming calendar. The photos show the demo and participation games that were staged throughout the one-day event on 20th April at the prestigious EXCEL Centre in London's Docklands. To give you a more complete walkthrough experience, I've interspersed photos of the trade stands among the demo & participation games.

Here's the link to a slideshow of the photos:

Fantastic as always, Joe. It was great to see you there again.

Thanks Joe, I knew you were there altough I haven't seen you anywhere. But there are more people that I know of that I haven't run accross all day.

Cheers Joe, your photos are fantastic. Very jealous for all who attended, looks like it was an amazing day.

Thanks for the lovely photo's.

Sorry to have missed saying hello to you Joe – but your photos are an invaluable reminder, as always, of all the things I somehow missed!

Joe – very nice shots (as ever). Can I borrow some of the Slammers ones to add to the Gallery (with a credit) on the Slammers site?

Running a game all day, this is the only way I can see the show! If you could add a button to the slide show so that I can click it to go to some of the trade stands you've featured so that I can go back in time and make a purchase, that'd be just great…!

A huge thank you again for posting this – I was concious this year of just how much I missed of the show, so your photo-tour is invaluable!

Cheers

A fantastic selection of pictures, thanks for sharing these. It's amazing but I always see stuff I missed when I look through other peoples photo's.

I was waiting for them. Thank you.

Good stuff, always the best Joe !

Excellent photos, thanks.

Wow… great stuff!

Nice to see – photo 96 is it…

Now we need an index

Thanks for all that effort though – much appreciated

Great shots! Thanks.

How do you get such good depth of field?

Why do I already think I know which picture no. 96 is, Marc ?

Great resource (though I only had time to skim) … great pics of the Lance & Longbow/Simon Chick Cravant game – and some nice tee shirts in there, too

Well done. Thank you so much for the effort you put into these virtual tours. Much appreciated.

Thanks very much for all the positive comments, much appreciated.

John (Treadaway): no problem regards use of the Slammers pics – be my guest. BTW: nice photo of you and your better half!

Thanks Joe

I have stuck them up! link

And yes; se certainly is my better half (gosh I look so old [but then I am…])

Thanks for posting all of these photos. So much to see and appreciate! Wish I'd been there. :)

Cheers

Ahh – this is the one we've been waiting for. I don't believe Salute is real until Joe's walk-thru appears.

I haven't looked at them yet but I hope he got one of me after missing me (and the hat I wore specially for his photo) last year

I'm all excited now, looking forward to heading over to enjoy the pics.

Thanks Joe for this regular superb effort.

Excellent Walk Though Joe!
I always look forward to your photo tours.
Thanks so much,
Clif

Really excellent pictures, thanks for posting,

Great walk-through. I've almost abandoned taking my own photos at the show as you always do such a good job. Do you mind if I use the ones of our Dux Bellorum game to put on my blog?

cheers
Steve

Thanks very much for posting these!!

Oh dear… Three photos of Dave Brown in quick succession, on an empty stomach…

:o(

Joe, I didn't have to go to the show…I was there with you…excellent!

Thanks. I like looking at pics of dealer booths.

Hi Joe
Great pics of the show – I was away from the IHMN game during your shoot – then I missed you at the Waterloo game
Hope to catch you soon

Some amazing photographs, of some amazing games

and some photographs of static staged presentations.

(I liked the Waterloo one – even if I do not like static displays)

>Do you mind if I use the ones of our Dux Bellorum game to put on my blog? (Steve)
No problem, Steve.
>How do you get such good depth of field? (Schogun)
Too little space to give a full answer here, I'm afraid. But I can pass on one tip that you all will find useful. If, like most wargamers, you have a compact digital camera, try setting it on a 2 second timer. When you depress the button, hold the camera as firmly as you can as you wait for the photo to be taken. Keep the camera as still as possible until the image appears in the viewfinder. You'll find that your photos are much sharper as a result.

Excellent photo tour.Thanks for sharing.

Once again Top-Notch. Thank you Joe, your photos are a blessing to us all……
