What!!! Better than the Sistine Chapel? The Taj Mahal perhaps? I could go on. The only thing that makes that look any good is the reflection of the sunlight coming off of it. Jeez!

I dunno, have you been to the Sistine Chapel. I mean technically yes it's good, but seriously, could you actually live with that...eek.

If the pope had only had Linda Barker round with a pot of Magnolia paint and some nice net curtains he's have probably lounged about in that hall drinking the blood of the children he murdered a bit more often.

Nasty surprise here:

Acid house was blowing up as 6th form started, was never stupid enough to try E, but here are 99 tabs of it:

Walled city, Kowloon, echoes of Shenmue 2 anyone?

By the way, LX3 or G10? (for SLR's I'll stick to film, thanks)

Despite being a long term fan of Canon (and Minolta, natch), I'm all too aware that since they started outsourcing production abroad, the quality has declined, but this is a bit much...

Also, some test shots of the 5D MK2 in Akiba, with a couple of stalker shots thrown in for good measure...

I still can't believe the street price for this camera, from what I've read about what's inside, 2.5k certainly isn't justifiable, just seems like "full frame tax", Canon taking a leaf out of Apples pricing book?

So, I have just over 1,000 photos to sort through from my vacation (to start with!). I've got some that I'd like to post online. What do you guys recommend? Flickr? Panaramio? Mainly I just want to be able to share photos with select people, or the world at large & retain the copyright.


Thanks for any suggestions.

Flickr is free up to a certain point - limits on the number of pictures you can view.

It is good provided either

- you want to share them publicly

- the people you want to share with are also Flickr users (in my experience they aren't!)

You can create guest passes to collections and send the URL to non Flickr people but it is messy

    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).

    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them. 
    • On the plus side showers are warm down - for now 😆
