Subway and Quiznos use special high speed ovens to heat and
toast the filling and roll at the same time so it's served hot.
I'm not sure of the nutritional/safety of this because in the
case of say a ham or chicken sandwich they are just reheating
already processed meat. At least MacDeadthings use raw meat
I quite like them though mostly because you have a
choice from about 6 different breads.
They are sold by length 6 inch or 12 inch.

Great shot Stan. I don't mind the white shoes they partly
echo the white in the umbrella. Pity they aren't the same
shade..... even better would have been if they were red

I tried it reversed but the difference was negligible, so I chose the best fit, which probably has more impact on quality, as it keeps everything square.
This lens is well regarded. This one is definitely sharp, but it only has 8 aperture blades and colour and contrast are poor, by camera lens standards, so I'm still on the lookout for others

It is a good macro lens so it might be hard to see any differenceI tried it reversed but the difference was negligible, so I chose the best fit, which probably has more impact on quality, as it keeps everything square.

reversed. The best one is the Nikon 63mm, but they are rare and
expensive.

Enlarger lenses should be reversed for Macro.
Nikon is OK but some makes flare up quite easily.

These are great. That lens has really nice bokeh for bird
photos. 2 and 3 are my favourites.
The 1st one looks focussed just in front of the bird, judging
by the grass.

That's completely the wrong colour for a female blackbird.
The original is correct with regard to colour.
The sharpening round the eye and beak is OK, but as gwing has
pointed out the edge of the bird looks like it's been cut
out with a scalpel.
Danny needs to use another method of reducing the size. The
100% crop shows a lot of detail in the feathers, but they aren't
there in the reduced file
Very nice shot...... females don't stand around very much.
The GPS Location works OK with Exif Viewer v2.00 under
Firefox. Clicking it takes you straight to the location
on a Google Map.
