Damian - I always remember one time during "the troubles" when I was driving down the M2, heading for Dublin from Larne. I got a puncture on the motorway at about 6-7am on a Sunday morning, and looking about me I saw a mural on one side of the motorway depicting Bobby Sands, and opposite side of the motorway was another mural depicting the UVF/UDA. Believe me when I tell you that I could show these guys in the pit lanes of Formula One how to change a tyre quickly!!

I'm glad these days are just a memory (more or less) now.

Have you checked out Pixmania (www.pixmania.com) for prices??

UPDATE...

Currently, only the dual-monitor setup allows you to make money via Google AdSense, but still worth a look.

Welcom, Damian!! It's been years since I was last in Norn Iron, so it'd be great to see what the place looks like now.

Consider yourself extremely fortunate that they didn't have a K-9!! It would have chewed your face off!!

I dunno if any of you guys and gals use a dual, triple, or even quad-monitor setup on your pc, but you may want to have a look at:

www.triplemonitorbackgrounds.com

for some inspiring panoramic shots. I have the honour of having one of my pano's placed on the site!

The best sizes would be either 7680x1600 or 5760x1080.

Klaus Burton (lead developer) has advised that you can even make money from them by using your Google AdSense ads on your pages.

If anybody's interested in earning from this, contact Klaus at:

Incidentally, the photo they accepted of mine is the single pano in my portfolio here.

Bob, every time I glance at pic # 1, it reminds me of the video for Ultravox's "Vienna"!!

Methinks you used the wrong equipment to shoot Olly Murs... Next time, please use the AK-47 assault rifle!!

I have a Lowepro bag at home which is now too small for my needs. I'll try to look it out tonight, and perhaps take a few pics of it for you.

I hope it was the express train you were travelling on, otherwise Harper Collins are gonna be in touch!!
