That's a result? That's more like a week touring Europe on my bike (motorcycle), all in Adobe sure don't do themselves any favours, or any of the UK punters for that matter! As long as YOU are a happy bunny, that's all that counts
I got PSP X2 for less than £40 last week, I thought that was expensive, but no, it was a result

Try some cling film, it has the advantage of you not loosing much dexterity Probably better on a fixed (prime lens) but definitely worth a try?

This is my kind of technology Improvisation feeds the brain, and is so much more satisfying than throwing money away !
Well done;o)

Also have a look at 'Paintshop Pro x2', it's less than £40 from Amazon and a few other retailers. It does most things that you might need

Have a look, maybe even try the free trial

He remembered Martin Parr doing a lecture once and apparently he said that when he was up front with the gear and flash lights etc in someones face and was asked what he thought he was doing.................. he used to reply............... "taking a f****** photo"!

Maybe people are getting fed up with being photographed (speed cameras) and observed (CCTV's) going about their daily routine. They are now using CCTV's for parking offences. It's not paranoia any more, it's a fact of life in the UK All being used in the name of anti-terrorism
Oh no, not another bl**dy camera

Finally the K20D and K200D are available in Holland, Konijnenberg has them both mark as in stock!
Maybe I'll make a trip to Den Ham one day soon.
It'll have to wait until after the weekend though as I'm off to Vlieland for a soggy weekend break on Friday. Pity I don't have a weatherproof camera, but I have packed the Ds's raincoat
Take some cling film

If you are complaining (perhaps you just dislike the idea, this is just my advice), try downloading trials of software, or the free GIMPshop; search google. It is a modified version of GIMP suited to the photoshop names and layout, so if you do ever upgrade, you will be reasonably close to knowing your program.
I can see that the pp is becoming more important/talked about than the actual photography. Maybe it's best left to the experts?
I do like manipulation, but there is still no substitute for a real photograph, this would be my main aim and goal to achieve, before mastering photoshop or other programs But I still have a loooong way to go!
Just my five bobs worth

I don't manage to get close to these often Just finished a 4x4 driving afternoon, and spotted this on the way out of the grounds, light wasn't brilliant at the time.
