it helps you develop a redundant skill

Rubbish.

Anything that makes it more difficult for sellers to do a runner with ones cash is a good thing imo.

I got scammed some years ago for £30 ish quid. A seller opened an account and sold 60 thing for a similar price, then disappeared.

You might be honest, but there are plenty out there who aren’t.

and that’s before I go on about sellers being the ones who pay to sell on eBay and pay to receive funds via PayPal

Ebay is a business, they do it to make money.

£68 on ebay, is this good?

Great optics for the money.

Very very very very muddy.

Don’t come it’s terrible I tell thee.

and of course cropping throws away the extra resolution…

…..and the distracting crap you’d not noticed in the original shot. :)

How does one go about learning?

It’s all out there on the internet.

Loads of free photoshop tutorials, Flickr for inspiration, talkphotography forum for friendly advice, and of course never underestimate good old trial and error.

Can’t say I can do the wide angle thing, I’ve had a 10-20 sigma and a 10-17 fisheye, and never really had much success with them. As samuri says to get detail in the foreground you’ve got to be touching it.

I’d suggest a 50mm. I’ve just bought a f/1.2 which the postie will be delivering tomorrow. :)

the hypersaturation and moody skies with halos around dark edges are the hallmarks of over zealous tone-mapping in photomatix or similar HDR programs.

Snore….

I had a steel frame that happily accepted a 27 instead of a 27.2 seatpost. It never once slipped.

I’ll be there for beer on Saturday, and a pootle on Sunday. Most likely on my Scandal.

I do indeed still ride mine.

A great bike.

bump

Keep em coming.

Though it was a serious request.

Cheers Chaps. :)

My current walk around lens is the 24-105 f/4 L IS

My next major purchase will be the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS to replace my f/4 non IS version.

Canon’s IS technology rocks.

My advice would be go to a shop and find out what feels right in your hands.

Talk to yer man at wheelpro.

Will do.

I have a friend who has just self published, can pick their brains if you want?

That would be great.

Thanks Simon, looks like as it is a game of skill that I may be OK?

I am as is another pro photographer.

That’s good news Paul.

Panasonic F series video lens.

If I was you, I’d book. Some of the places above have few places for motorhomes. At Alpe D’Huez they seem to not mind camping by the lifts, though worth mentioning is that many places in France have local bylaws that strictly prohibit parking up in towns except for at campsites.

i fully understand how they work straightening tall buildings when the camera isn’t horizontal but how do they make railway lines parallel?

Shooting portrait.

Those movies must have required a lot of work.

“these are perfect. “

really!?
you should have said you wanted dodgy amateur retouching/playing with photoshop

He seems to be happy. :)

Dodgy, amateur?

Not getting enough work eh?

Here’s a few.

Rubbish.

Is there a 16″ frame built up and has anyone a pic of it?

Yes there is one built up. Haven’t seen any pics yet.

you should have ridden the steps.

Looking forward to it.

Shame the tape of his final moments was destroyed.

drill them out

“character traits” of my own bike.

what are they?

What size is it

that’s the 18″

that’s because they’re on the other side…

I’d guess if he’s found some bolt on guides for this side, he found some for the other.

Rudeboy should be aware that speed is a drug that doesn’t sharpen the wit

It seems to have caused irepairable damage to DA_DOOD–lulz language skills.

1)5
2) several
3) 1. The plastic bit which hugs the head cut me in one crash.
4)10%

I’ve got a CompuRover AW which is a similar size.

It takes 2 bodies, 3 lenses, flashes and once you consider the weight is comfortable enough, and no problems with the helmet catching on it.

Me and my own family already wear helmets when skiing/boarding.

They shouldn’t be compulsory. It should be a persons choice. IIRC french ski schools won’t accept kids without them.
