    It doesn't give enough info, correct. But does it not now give thousands of people the impression that people using cameras near children, should be arrested on sight?

    ^^ I know, it's just annoyed me because it's spreading like wildfire across social media.

    A first attempt at long exposure seascape

    Ok, this was just after sunset (behind the island in the background), It was my last day there and I was annoyed with myself for missing it. I got there already set up for sunset, I think I was using a 10 stop Haida filter, the lowest ISO on the D90 is 200 and I ramped this up a little to bring...

    Website being attacked

    If it's being hacked, it'll be for setting up a phishing scam, they'll set up a site within your site, probably a fake bank account login page. If they get in (sounds like they won't), just keep an eye out for any pages you didn't create. Is it possible the change the /wp-admin/ directory name...

    Has digital photography irreversibly computerized the art of photography?

    Computers are only a "handicap" if you don't know how to use one..... Most people that don't know how to use one are usually fearful of them. But then with the tabloid press scaremongering about hackers and fraudsters and weirdos, it's no surprise people fear the damn things. Before computers...

    Camera = Pervert? It just got more extreme.

    He was a forestry worker, probably had a small axe fixed to his belt. The law on knives also covers axes, as such the blade (or edge) must be less than 3 inches and non-locking for EDC (every day carry), but there are exceptions, for example a chef can carry knives to and from their place of...

    Camera = Pervert? It just got more extreme.

    It's hard to see from a photographer perspective, because we all (I hope) understand what image quality is about, the average Joe thinks it's just all about megapixels and think thinks some cheap point'n'shoot is all you need. So the impression I get, is that people don't understand why you...

    Camera = Pervert? It just got more extreme.

    Probably happened at a time when the news/media was on an anti P**** campaign or the govt was trying to get some new related law passed. Showing innocent people being attacked as a result, wouldn't be conducive. I'd like to think it was unrelated, but if I ask myself "would he have been...

    Pc keeps rebooting-can't do anything!!

    Corrupt MFT would make a drive look empty and stop it booting...... However in the OP, it was stated that it booted to Windows before restarting?

    Acer/Lenovo laptops

    I don't really rate Lenovo laptops as any better than most others....... BUT if I had to buy a new laptop it'd be Lenovo, simply because at heart there must be some IBM blood left in there somewhere. My T41's have been going strong since 2004/2006, one is even in use 24/7. Before that I had a...
