Once again we are very pleased to bring you several general views from the 2008 National Exhibition. These "Box Brownie" views are the superb photography work of Quentin Smith and David Walker (who are obviously using much better cameras than your web master's old Box Brownie by the look of things!) still, we must admit that they are excellent work.

So, sit back and enjoy a good tour around the 2008 National Exhibition.
