I take photographs for memories if the subject is personal, and for aesthetics if I just like the image. There are so many people taking photographs of anything and everything out there that there has to be something very notable in an image before someone would look at your photo above anyone...

Well, I'm off to bed, they've delayed the match by an hour to 2am UK; I'm not THAT interested.

Certainly more so than bloody Wimbledon tennis!

With regard to quantum entanglement: Through diligent investigation, scientists have found that contrary to the belief that every possible thing can happen in another universe, in none of them have they found Scotland getting through the preliminary rounds

If you move to full frame, everything is bigger. You get a larger sensor sure, but the lenses you require become heavier, larger and more expensive. I had full-frame for decades with massive cameras and lenses I could barely carry. As I got older, I finally realised that unless I was...

Well, now they can put his head on his trophy wall if they can find a Tupperware container big enough now five elephants have finished with it.

It's being mooted, apparently. By coincidence, it appears that just last month, this rumour was quashed, but I didn't know that until just now. It is suspected that some AI facilities and other stuff may well be subscription-based, but the core operating system will be a free upgrade from...

That will change if Microsoft move to a subscription platform, I might even have another go then.

My view on when one is no longer a beginner is when you can take a picture using ISO, aperture, shutter speed and focus and no longer need, or want, the scene modes on a camera. At that point you have moved from outright novice to someone who does actually have clue what they are doing. Once...

Stick it in the microwave, that'll do it! o_O
