Best Opera Glasses or Binoculars for Theatre, Opera and Musicals
Oct 5, 2012

What are the best opera glasses? I ask myself this often, especially as my eyes continue to deteriorate. The beauty of opera is in the action. It took me a long time to realise that listening to recordings was not the best way to get acquainted with opera but good seats are so expensive! To get in, see the action, and understand the plot of an opera or musical you may need to invest in a good pair of opera glasses. Here is a selection of opera glasses that are all rated highly by opera and theatre goers. Some of these opera glasses and lightweight binoculars adapt equally well to ball games and birdwatching too!

Human Beings! Such wonderful pets! Don't we love them? It is so important that we don't try to felinise them too much though. They try their best to attend to our needs and if we wished, we could make them do almost anything - but their understanding ...

Do you love the sea? I know I do! Sail boats and fishermen? As all my friends and those most dear to me will tell you, I have a boat fixation. I am a boat bore! Just look at me grin in the photo. I have just been on a speedboat at Whitby in North York...
