I got told that the IT CONTRACTOR was coming in to do stuff to it this morning.

Apart from anything else, have they not heard of laptops and remote access? It's not a new thing...

EDIT: And they're still up... What a joke.

They could very easily fix it (or so you would hope, marketing themselves as an IT company as well!) Just either too lazy or leave it up on the off chance that someone comes in for once...
As I said TD=FAIL
Wonder who got those lenses on thurs, probably some of the people who work there :|

Nice shot! Is that rain? Any filters?

It was overcast the whole day and I'm pretty sure it's just fog/clouds.

I'm yet to invest in filters so none used for this.

Noice! I skipped the Three Sisters on the last trip, should have stopped by, but then everything was covered in thick cloud at the time.

Woohoo, just received a bunch of goodies from hvstar. Some new Hoya HD filters (looking forward to trying them out), a bunch of Lenspens (never used them before), step-up rings, remotes, a card wallet and some silver and gold reflectors. :D

I love some of the images in the book (including yours, Dave), but sheesh the quality level is low in some sections.

Thinking especially of people shots ... boring light, boring images. *sigh* I thought we were better than that TBH!

My god, Lenspens rock. I thought it involved some sort of liquid, but it's completely liquid free. Oh Lenspen, where have you been all my life?

Collin, your batteries and stuff didn't get picked up today for some reason. I'll take the box out to the depot tomorrow morning.

No liquid, but sometimes the carbon black comes off on the sensor one...

Mic, the TT stuff was posted today will get exact costs off to you soon, I can send you a copy of the invoice too if you want?
