OOOPS!
Happened about 15 mins ago in a place called Shotton near where I work. Had just popped to the bank and was walking back to my car when I saw the whole thing happen. (My K-x had the wrong date/time - hence why the EXIF data says it was taken in Jan 2009)

OOOPS!
What this collision? "A witness told the court that Rhiannon and eight of her friends were walking to a chip shop after drinking beer in a park. The court heard that Rhiannon had drunk “two or three” cans of lager but was “absolutely fine”. There was conflicting evidence as to whether Rhiannon...

Oh DEAR....
Yes, I caught that myself a while back. Was'nt mightly impressed with the punchline, but coming from a Canon user (supposedly) it did'nt suprise me.

Does an Image Need a Caption?
I think a title can be useful, but surely, if a caption is necessary, then it is making up for something lacking in the shot? But I had to go back and check to see what, if any, captions I'd added. Recently they have just been statements like " Fish being smoked", probably superfluous, come to think...

Does an Image Need a Caption?
I'm with ChrisA on this. Captions - sometimes; factual lables - sometimes; nothing at all - sometimes. Looking at three of my favourite shots (taken with three different brands of equipment :oops: ), there is only one might benefit from a caption, or a lable, or both. If I were that way inclin...

But the TV has been full of reports about heatwaves. Oh, I forgot, they only care about the South East of England. We haven't had Summer in Scotland for five years now. just go straight from Spring to Autumn. You aren't encouraging me to visit :shock:. We had some hot days way back at the en...

Thanks Don, I have a tree in near focus. Never tried video. It's in my back garden! Timing wise it won't happen here until it's pretty dark. What do you think of me using a 15mm??:?

Humidity is certainly up - the camping chairs are damp already! Come in for a few minutes as nothing's happening. Back out at 11 (I've told my 8 yr old son I'll wake him if there are fireworks!!)

Well...just tucked my son back in bed and he's very happy having clocked 10 meteors in the last twenty minutes. Getting cloudy now though - Peroni finished, I'm off to bed. Best of luck to those with your camera's poised!

Pocket camera opinions sought
until pentax steps up with a proper answer, the canon g11 is the compact to beat. as for the others... here's what I'd consider, the x-70 as well as the k10 and 10-24, and 50mm etc. I have looked at the X70 but it is not really a pocket camera not my pockets anyway, but it sure has a high fps count...

Well I'm back from my local optician. Several hundred Euro poorer. Well I will be when I collect the glasses. Good job my health insurance will pay a chunk of the costs! They are putting new lenses in my 12 year old granny glasses frames for reading, and I have bought a new pair for distance. Fir...

Competitions
Competitions are there to inspire and give a focus to our photography. The judging can be at any level, from those who are used to it and maybe even judge in public, to those who have little technical knowledge but know what they like. It's perfectly valid to just say what you like about an im...
