Quick google finds a ROM. So one of those things where it's not necessarily a good game, just one that is rare.

I guessed as much - seems bonkers, I'm with you Hayden couldn't see the merit in keeping things in the wrapper... open up and play 'em!

Button hammering goodness.

Good, the girl has removed all of the images off facebook without me having to ask her to

Guys, need ur advice and writing skills.
Added a couple of the models on facebook, and then got this message
Havent been able to view the video yet as im only on the laptop (and it will crash)

I dont know what to right back with. She has linked backed to my flickr page, but im still a tad annoyed that she didnt contact me first (she did have an easy way of contacting me either via flickr or the event organiser)

You will have to use a larger watermark assuming the pics on your facebook already have one

Mike, great set. I love this shot

Agreed, and you need to be a little more forceful in your attitude towards people taking your work. I suggest you still message the girl advising her the photos are not to be used!

I know exactly what you mean. Ive still got the conjunctivitus, still got a bad cough and a bit of a blocked nose, think i must have a blocked sinus as the whole of my left side of my face is really sore and i also have a bad back

I feel your pain, in the cough at least - 3 weeks in, 3 doctors and none of them can work out what it is. Chances are it is being caused by a clinical trial I'm on, and if it leads to scarring in my lungs I look forward to the compensation cheque!

Mike: Great photos

Do you guys reckon I'd be able to trade my 24-105 f4+Cash for a 24-70L very easily? Decided I need access to faster apertures. I don't personally know how this would advantage someone other than wanting a bit more reach?

Apparently the 85L isn't the fastest at focussing

It's not, but it's worth the wait

anyone want?

Looks interesting, will have to see how it compares to the canon versions when the price is published and settled

Tesh was eying that up last week, seems like a good one.

Nice of them to bring out some competition. Hoping the 85L doesn't decrease in value though

I can't imagine. I know I won't be selling mine for any less, I'm sure you won't either

It's also quite a bit lighter than the 24-70.

The view from the window this morning:

Off out walking this morning so there should be some good opportunities.

No wonder 'they' call it gods country, thanks for sharing

Love that first shot Mike - would look great as a tilt-shift image i think!

Crikey that looks like a very high tandem jump but more to the point what the heck is that coming vertically out of the cloud deck ~ a missile???

=Matt 'Photog' Peters;9706532]Few shots from earlier ..

Found a Robin in a tree too, this shot is completly un-cropped at 105mm, it didn't move a muscle!

Matt, very nice too ~ I have spotted various patches of Snowdrops in my travels but no Crocuses actually open yet???

Took this at the weekend, whats peoples thoughts? Shes a bit camera shy but I'm slowly getting her to be infront of the lens!

Main reason why I haven't been using my camera much


SE people meet Jenn, My girlfriend

Question for Ian while I'm PPing pics - what are these planes?

They were buzzing around all afternoon, managed to get a few shots too which I was pleased about although the 70-200 was on the 5DII and not the 7D which was a shame. Still, it handled them well.

I think she be an F-15 (Strike Eagle) linky here http://www.ejphoto.com​/f15_eagle_page.htm

Edit - that will teach me to miss so many pages ~ I see Ian spotted the F-15 'on the next page'
