    A few more London shots

    Nice captures Mark. Good balance between natural and artificial light. Like the Waterloo Station "Mind the Gap" one also. All of the essence of the underground with very little detail.

    Metal dev tank, worth buying?

    For €7 don't hesitate. Over the course of about 20 years ('70's & '80's) I used both metal and plastic. Both feel a bit different but do the same job in the end. Many people will have strong opinions one way or the other but only you can decide for you. My preference is probably about 60-40...

    Wedding shot whilst not well - never fly with an ear infection!

    These look very good to me. Maybe you thrive under pressure and do your best work :) I bet the B&G are very happy with them.

    Critique Sometimes London Can Be A Lonely Place

    Hi Tezz, I like it. I particularly like the grittiness of the image plus the high contrast. My only criticism (and i could be wrong) is that it appears to be tilting down towards the right hand side. See the line over the arch of the tunnel. It doesn't look level to me but it could just be...

    Temporary fix on walls?

    Have you tried Command Hooks (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Command-Medium-Hooks-Strips-17081/dp/B0000CFLYU/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1392724780&sr=8-8&keywords=command+hanging+hooks). Not sure if these are strong enough but the have a range of sizes. I used them when my son was at university as they...

    Photoshop and Lightroom 5 CC Offer

    Update... Note the phrase "then-current price of the offering". This would suggest that the price in year two will be up to the advertised list prices sans introduction offer deal.

    Photoshop and Lightroom 5 CC Offer

    I just tried to sign up and found this pricing on the Adobe site... Just a bit worrying if this is what I will be charged once the first year deal is over!

    Portrait Help

    The fact that he posed for you is amazing, my son never would at his age. They are good captures of the person but not of the character that is your son. They are a bit too clean and bright for a lad of his age. I would suggest a more contrasty picture for a boy (young man). If this was a...

    Now It's My Turn .... Blatant Infringement

    One thing I learned many years ago was that when you are wronged or given bad service always seek to negotiate a solution not an argument! The second thing is that once you get the legal people involved they are the ones going to gain most out of the situation. Now, imagine that you are not...

    London Day Trip

    Hi Darren, I drove into London yesterday and used the Westfield car park (£9.00 at the weekend). I use it anytime I am going into the centre of London mostly weekdays for the £6.00 you mention. Usually I stop at the shopping centre for a coffee and muffin before I head down to Shepherd's Bush...
