Re: Unreality...
Hi Stepan.
I don't wish to trivialise this issue but families fight occasionally. Sometimes there are relatives or acquaintances that just don't get along. Life's like that.
It's seldom that...

Re: Insurance
Hi Blair.
I'm not sure what you would define as 'best'. Like most things in life, you get what you pay for and it's often worth paying a bit more for 'the best'.
If you're a professional, you...

An early Christmas Wish....
Hi folks, it's been a while....!
Just popped over to say 'hello' and see what's new. Unfortunately, I'm still not as active behind the lens as I'd like to be, so a more meaningful contribution...

Re: "That's all Folks.....!!!"
Cheers to one and all. I've just been listening to one of my 'Rush' CDs and one of the tracks sort of sums up where I am right now. One of the verses goes:

Just a quick note to say "Goodbye".
Sadly, as much as I'd like to devote more time to my photography, it just isn't happening. I set up my own website earlier this year and I've really struggled...

How to thank everyone without replying each one.
Hi Darpan.
The site term of service says no excessive 'thank you' messages. However, each 'useful' critique / comment you receive can be rated as 'Useful'. As the number of 'Useful' critiques...

Hi David,
Everything in art is subjective - and thank goodness as a world full of absolute truths would be hell.

Re: Canon EOS 400D or Nikon D50?
Hi Sonal.
May I ask "for what?"
This isn't as daft a question as it might initially seem as they both have their good points. Chances are if you ask a Canon user, they'll go for the Canon and...

Re: Canon EOS 50D

That's fine if the owner of the image and the thief are both domiciled in US jurisdiction - maybe within the same state. However, cross-boundary legal actions are incredibly complex and...
