OK quick hello - just got broad band installed - sick of trying to get on here with dial up. photo upload so fast!! unfortunatley I find that it hasnt improved my photo taking capabilities - note to self, check camera settings before taking photos. This was a quick session with my pups - forgot had been playin with ISO etc. Wanted to post something tho to test new connection!!

Love the Rotty shot! I used to have a Rotty years ago (one of my many roggies). Taisha. I'm jealous that you have two

I forgot to download the photos from my camera the other day! Added another 7 photos to the Flick set.

Here is my favourite - Mount Cook from the Lake Pukaki lookout - bet you have never see this view before - Not!

That's my boy Bruce! 8) Nicely done!

Bruce ............. Ive never seen that view. Great photo

^^Nice Bruce!

Im thinking of getting a 24-70 (well I will but....).

I want to take photos at this time of night mostly, under street lights etc. I was thinking of getting a 50mm 1.4 from BHPhoto for less than 500NZ landed inc GST, as shooting at 1.4-2.0 would be a little quicker, plus its cheap.

Or not bother and just go straight to the 24-70?

Hmm, I have wanted one of them for a while now. Upgrade the 17 -85. But I shouldn't spend any more money till after my wedding

Very Nice Bruce ... like that.

Ohhh, that reminds me, I processed two the other night, the one with my scintilly clad friend and this one ...

Now that I like...a lot. What effects in PP did you apply? I would be very proud of that shot, but its also just the kind of thing that takes my fancy.

One word... "speechless".

Nice work, Sancho

I've just realised something today.

I've spent FAR too much money this year.
