Ditto, nice picture, but I'd try to light up the white/paler flowers more.

Only 3 answers in 4 hours? We obviously weren't trying hard enough!

It hasn't happened yet, but there's always tomorrow...

"Do you know something we don't?" asks G nervously, reaching for the Readers Digest edition of the complete works of HG Wells to bone up on Martians.
Hmmm, Mclaren are based in Woking, Lewis Hamilton is driving like a Martian, and there's this huge statue of a Martian in woking too.....

The Ammonyte puts his tin hat on and hides under the table as the digital vs film debate explodes again!

No, have a look at the bottom one - I'm sure that's a K mount fitting!

Well my reasoning is thus: It's the parallax effect.

If you look out of your window and move your head very slightly you may not notice that you have moved. Now put a small frame in front of your eye, then when you move your head, you will instantly notice it.

How about one of these? http://www.fotosense.co.uk/shop_details.asp?productID=1589

I've just thought of one possible advantage of small viewfinders - it should be easier to notice camera-shake.
