I'd like to take some portraits of my daughter in her new High School uniform during the holidays. Problem is, I don't really have anywhere in the house with a blank backdrop. I plan on using my lounge which gets lovely golden light in the early evening. But, what to do with the background? Do I use the furniture and have her sitting on it, or try to hide it?

I'm really not sure how best to do this. Any and all ideas welcome, because if I don't get these pics, Mrs Ted will place my camera, not too carefully, somewhere where it will hurt very much

1 & 2 for me.
And how lucky are you getting access to this sort of treat?...where is the "green with envy" smiley?

I had a meeting in Kent last week and had to stay over at a Travelodge. Knowing I'd get bored I took my camera.
To be honest, I didn't have as much time as I'd hoped, but here are a couple I took.

C&C as always

When you find out, let me know. I haven't had time to make any serious attempt at taking photographs in about 4 weeks

I love that! If only for the humour value!
I'll be showing that to my kids tonight.

I like number 1.
Number 2 is an interesting take from ( if my guess is right ) a well photographed location

Well, I used the Tamron for the first time last night. It was the kid's school concert, so I thought I'd try it out. Brilliant.!

The images might not be technically correct, ( so probably won't appear on here), but I'm made up with the quality.

I believe that particular principle was changed in 1997. You are now guilty until proven innocent.

AAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

I just mentioned this occurence to a girl I work with. She fully agrees with the security guards' actions as, "All paedophiles are men on their own".

What has this country become? A man on his own is fair game for any form of innuendo or accusation.

I'll have a look at that, thanks.
