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!

    • Hello.  A parcel for someone at 64B Blenheim Grove has been dumped at my address.  If anyone from 64B is in this forum, please get in touch!
    • CPR Dave is anti-dogs. Each to their own  I think my dog has perhaps grown a bit less nervy about the fireworks in the last few weeks, interestingly. Our last dog had no problems with them until he reached old age, when he became petrified.  CPR Dave - it's not just sounds of the metropolis they hate, mine collapses in fear when he hears thunder too 
    • There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...
    • So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
