OK, not photography, but.

I remember reading about this chap many years ago when he was still young. He's autisitc but in that savant (though far from an idiot) way he can draw the most stunningly detailed pictures from memory. Amazing work


 

His talent is incredible. I remember a documentary on TV about 20 years ago about a group of talented autistic children of which he was one. He must have been about 10 years old and drew a detailed picture of St Pancras Station from memory. There was also a kid who could play entire concerto's after hearing them once and another who could tell you what the day was the instant you threw out a random date in the future or past.

one for brendan



can you see that? It's the 'penrith' tea room. It's actually in Stony Stratford outside Milton Keynes and is a chemist now.

I went in and bought some aspirin and muttered 'and the finest wines available to humanity' under my breath. I'm sure it happens all the time :)

Sorry but ppl still have difficulty believing me that Therese really DID come to me work place...

If you want to create an "antique" effect for some reason [social networking site etc] and the deck you are using doesn't have Photoshop [or similar[ installed, this site may be useful:

Just right click and open your converted image into a new tab to save. Note there is an English option in the right hand corner.


By the way, does anybody else on the forum shoot with a 40D? If so, could you offer any tips regarding the custom user settings? Cheers!

    • I really have to smile as I was the one, years ago who posted about what Gala was.. had not a clue, but drove and drive regularly. Felt such a fool at the time but wow, years later post still comes up.. with comments. Still don’t understand why a lot of park is cordoned off and glad not a resident overlooking park.. must be so noisy but now dates have been kindly supplied, those that don’t want to chill and listen to music in their flats/houses can up sticks and explore UK or abroad. Totally understand that in a built up area and millions in London, music events take place all over the capital to allow access to all.  Brockwell  Park, Dulwich Park, don’t hear anything going on in or around Telegraph Hill or indeed Horniman Gardens.. Crystal Palace I believe do their own thing.  Do these events , clearly charge, provide their own insurance, public liability, crowd control, first aiders, security and policing? Rubbish clearance etc  
    • Personally I think the second weekend has always been a tactical ploy with no real intention of going ahead with it. The council then turn it down (saying they have listened to us, which of course they haven’t) and announce that they will only license one weekend. GALA get the result that they want - job done. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the council even suggested this ploy, they are so desperate to keep the event.
    • Hello Tori, which of the three incumbent Labour Councillors are you hoping to replace?
    • I just checked the Southwark Council website and it stated:   All responses to the consultation will be recorded and a ‘consultation findings’ report will be published once feedback has been reviewed. The review process involves collating feedback from a number of council teams and external agencies - the aim will be to publish the report as soon as possible after the consultation has closed and no later than the 31 January 2026. The report will be published on this site. The use of bold type on the date is the Council's, not mine. They are late. I wonder why?
