At least an explanation would be in order, maybe a post in Announcements
Nah! much more exciting as it is, one day your a peasant and the next day surprise surprise, your a commoner, plus if users know the requisite number of posts they may be tempted to write drivvel like this to bump thier post count up

Can anyone recomend any reasonable B&Bs or Pubs/Inns around the Seahouses area, the state of the Pound means we may have to pass on our annual trip to the Canaries We thought we'd trade the suntans for english breakfasts (diets start in April)

Number 6.....remind me NEVER to go paintballing

Was your choice of body and lens deliberate? ie: so you could rinse the paint off later

Thank you Alan, you certainly have an eye for these things!
Not really, I'm just repeating what I've picked up at my camera club, portraiture is'nt really my thing, I'm OK if someone else sets the lights up and we have a pretty model

Dont buy the istD

It has two command dials which means you'll be leaving the K200D in the bag a lot more

Nice shot Stefan, not perfect but certainly better than most early attempts (including mine).

I think the second guy is about the best of the bunch though the lighting would probably have suited a female portrait rather than male, the lighting on the women is IMHO a bit too harsh.

Have a look at McBrian's website for a bit of inspiration;

PS McBrian, you owe me for the plug

Just to hijack the thread how on earth did we get stuck with 10x8 paper?
The reason harks back to the good old days of plate cameras etc, long before the arrival of even 35mm. You know what Imperial Standards are like, they never die
