Sorry Pete *giggles* but call it revenge for that sodding Dambusters pic
haha! Thats so bad If you can change the settings the way to get the best of both worlds is to up the ISO to bring out the background detail while using the flash to fill in the subject, me. If the cam lets you do that. But I think the non flash shot works just fine

Good day. Got some work done. Setup my external monitor to act as a digital photo frame. its an odd thing and some may say its a waste of a display but having all your favourite photos pop up at 15'' size is nice to see. In the afternoon I went to visit HMS Ark Royal. I wasn't really planning on getting a lot of photos but I got some nice ones on the press tour. Nice cuppa too. After I bumped into some mates, had my soul stolen by their camera and wandered off to my car via this bridge. A good day. Nice to chat to real people, have a laugh and spend time away from the computer.

080109: Placeholder! This picture is a 'before' shot. In a few months I'll add the 'after' shot and upload this one...

090109: A very cold outside from my bed. Mucho fog.


More to come tomorrow. Too tired to resize...

My Canon is going to cost £180+VAT to fix . I can’t afford that now, so I’m just going to have to manage and ignore the box of lenses looking pleadingly at me from across the room.

160109 : One of the HMS Ark Royal from today.

Just a quick shot as I edit the days photos. Splashed out on a new shutter release button for my D700. £55 :/ Very annoying but it does the job. Got some long exposures at Ark Royal. Anime in the background is this weeks Bleach. Kenpachi going to town on an Arrancar.

Glad you liked it vix your car seems to have a man where the engine should be. Flintsone conversion?

I really fracked up the numbers so I'm back to #13.

Meh. How do you write about depression without sounding like a bit of a whiney woe is me emo type? How do you get the message across to people that just don't get it? The past week has been really meh. There are good moments with friends. I have a laugh, enjoy things but after I'm dead. Its been a hard week with all the fighting and negative comments on forums. Sure there aren't a great deal of them but for me 1 negative comment at the wrong time outways everything I've ever done. Its stupid. Its annoying. Its just the way I am and I have to wait it out before I get back to work. Someone will say something bad and it'll get to me, and then I'll recall everything bad this week and it all gets to me. Then I think about everything else thats bad and that gets to me. Its dominoes. I can flip like a switch and I'm gone. I have no way back. I don't just cheer up and while I appreciate everyones nice comments all I can do is wait. Its not just feeling down. Its feeling numb, empty, pointless, worthless, rubbish, broken. Thing is, this isn't even a bad day.
