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

    • Just as one example, the grass in a least some of  the tree pits in Ulverscroft Road appears to have been sprayed. If it's not the council who has done it, then I wonder if someone is trying to kill the trees 😭 although I doubt if that would work, as the council have sprayed tree pits in the past (ignoring handwritten notices by my then very young grandchildren asking them not to spray as they had sowed flower seeds there) 🤬 Grass in the pavement nearby appears to have been neither sprayed nor scraped out. I'm quite confused.
    • They aren't. They are removing them manually, scraping and cutting them out. I've seen them doing it on my road and surrounding roads. I can't imagine that they would have different methods in different parts of East Dulwich.
    • I see. But as I read it, Tesco would still need the agreement of the owners/ leaseholder to submit proposals, so would need Poundland’s cooperation? I suppose we’ll have to wait while this plays out. There’s applications re this site on the Southwark planning portal dating back over 70 years. In 1954, Woolworth’s applied to convert the original 4 shops here (Nos 29-35) into one Woolies but the council refused because the flats above the shops would be lost and there was a local housing shortage following the war. Small businesses being displaced by big chains on Lordship Lane was already a trend back then.  
    • I see what you mean.  Perhaps the "alcohol licensing flyer for Tesco Express on the Poundland site" confirmed by the OP has been removed then.
