What bemused you today?

I wonder how much, if any, post processing is allowed in this selfie competition

I think they just need a mug shot to compare with the criminal database.  If your on it you don't get the job.

Stumbled across a newly opened  Jessops store in Kingston today. It doesn't appear much different to the one that closed in the town whan it all went t***ts up recently.

Smaller but still manned by those irritatingly persistent shop assistants that follow you around and hover on your elbow even when you have told them you're just browsing.

Can't think what Peter Jones the Dragon's Den man hopes to achieve? 

To be honest I found my local Jessops friendly helpful and the staff not at all annoying. Shame it closed.

So you think you are a dedicated photographer!

I can only assume that everyone had fallen asleep after a prolonged session of eating and drinking and left the TV on, or watched it in order to fall asleep and forget their indigestion. 

One programme I can't abide

I like 23 - double whammy. I bet there are a lot of dealers who like to know how to grow meth

Great start to the week!

My D7000 went for repair and I spent the other day firing off random shots with various lenses determining that they had done a good job. Yesterday I go out for a walk and get back to find I`m less than happy with many of my images and thinking have they sacrificed longer distance focus to get it sharper up close knowing what I said I used it for - weddings etc. Is that even possible? Today I`ve been through all the camera settings amending them and shooting with the lens that was least sharp yesterday and through the window shots look better but.... so tired of pixel peeping.

Does the D7000 have focus adjustments?  Never mind, I just looked and it does.  You may need to go through the process of adjusting that.  There are many videos and tutorials on doing it.

Yes been there - done that before. More testing! My D700 I never adjusted a thing - just magic.

Still trying to work out how to spend the £34 that I'll save on my gas bill. A whole 9p a day is something to ponder over before making any hasty decisions. Anyway I've got to the end of February before I need worry too much!

I'm missing out on this, as I am 'all electric!'

Myself. I am here to tell you, unequivocally that the Spot Removal tool will NOT clean the spots off of your computer screen. No way, no how. And it took me several attempts before I realized what I was doing.
