Don't the other togs in the pit complain about that diffuser??? Wouldn't a simple plastic clip on one be more appropriate????

Unfortunately we have no students in the family.

I was wondering if there was a good supplier at a lower cost.

Do you have no children in the family attending school????

It must be useless, most of it is just stored in vaults...

Art gold & other precious metals are probably all better investments at the moment than sticking it in the bank....

Photography is increasingly increasing in value...

I prefer normal colours though as per the last two.

What do you set your WB to when the lightings coloured?
Tungsten?
WB is set to AWB then slightly adjusted in post. Lighting is pretty much determined by the band, Pretty Reckless had plain white lights where as Evanescence had lots of purple & blues.

One thing puzzles me though,in your listed gear you state
Pentax K-5 with LL80, which should be fitted to either K10D and K20D,
when i have looked up for a Pentax K-5 they state ML-60
which i know is £15/£20 dearer, but the photos show the tabs(LL80) on the othere side, so does the LL80 have to be fitted the the wronge way around?
In my sig I list 2 x GX20 these had the LL80 fitted. I need to update my gear list as I recently sold one of my GX20's, need to sell the other now so I can get a second k-5...

Thanks for all the nice comments...

Was at Leeds academy tonight for Evanescence supported by The Pretty Reckless.

Have never shot either before so it was good to shoot a little bit of glam )

K-5 with Tamron 17-50mm
GX20 with DA35mm f/2.4

Both used wide open

Joking apart it's not about the photo, it's about who its by, the instatallation & the rarity.

Gursky's images very rarely come up for auction they are huge installations & a lot of time goes into them.

This image will now always be know for once being the most expensive photograph in the world so the buyer has an excellent invetsment.

I think it is better than the last most exspensive photo Cindy Shermans image #96 which is just a self portrait.
