@Amy_Walker Visited mexico few years back on hols. Thought would bring some tequila back. But too much choice. Amazing how many diff ->
@Amy_Walker tequilas there are. Did get some "silver patron" to try (still unopened) on flight back from NYC...
RT @snipeyhead: Keygen Available For Firefox 4…Wait, What? http://bit.ly/9SCJme #firefox #idiots #sheep #security
looking like a lovly day outside. Shame managed to oversleep a little.. must get out and enjoy
@Amy_Walker have a good day. Also heading to portsmouth but a more general look around and girls insist on hitting some shops :-(
@Amy_Walker expect a full trip report. May do the same at another point in summer. Last visit many years ago to "festival of the seas"
@noelrooney I had a sudden wakeup morning. Supposed to be up at 9.. woken up in couple secs daze whilst figuring out what was happening!
@Amy_Walker Could be great for pictures! I'll b wandering around camera in tow, but being nr coast will prob be lusting after 70-300 or more
@OzoneVibe I reckon mine's gone slightly slower (10%) since BT have been mucking around with cabs for FTTC. prob just moved wires to side
@aspender :-) sounds like you had a succeessful time!
@Amy_Walker I only have CPL - NDs would be nice for water but obv then need tripod. CPL very good though for lots water/sky
@OzoneVibe @amandagolding Or on holiday/anywhere "all inclusive" where ppl overload plates then waste. Really grates on me.
@noelrooney Why? Just to save money -- same provider basically, same adsl network
@noelrooney I'm looking forward to fibre (FTTC). Reckon Be will launch/trial first if either do .. and fibre is being installed nOW.
@EmpireSteve Honestly I could only afford/justfy a "regular" consumer lens so would prob me f5.6. The extra long 18-250/18-270 sigma/
@EmpireSteve /tamrom interesting for photowalks but concerned at optical comprimises, slower & focus issues. So nikon 70-300 prob next
@Amy_Walker though tripod/filters not necessarily brand specific, just depends on ring size. Could get stepup/down maybe.
@Amy_Walker biggest issue with tripod is carrying (esp with family) and being in right place/allowed to use I guess (what do I know)
@Amy_Walker Oh very creative. Are they on your tumblr? Will have to look later. Cool.
@Amy_Walker My daughter is getting much more interested in photography now. She fancies one of these http://bit.ly/bFszZC
@EmpireSteve am not expert, but *what* ! a f8-f12. Sounds like tripod/landscape territory only with manual focus (sensors tend to struggl
@EmpireSteve e - over 5.6
@noelrooney I've filled in trial too - I think I'd go for 30, but struggle with 40
@Amy_Walker I've seen some of your other photos just not those. Yes of course flickr too. Like ability to comment. use 2. Have as contact.
@noelrooney Duh! will have slightly diff sw though
@OzoneVibe you're really selling virgin to me. Mind you after a burst of responses no more replies to coverage emails. they get ignored.
@Amy_Walker I just use flickr currently, like idea of ppl commenting. still have huge f1/new york & other days out backlog. ..
@Amy_Walker Seen lots of ppl use tumblr though. though you don't get the feedback so much I think?
@pj_kent on what grounds. Was planning to head up to london for a photowalk sometime and wondering about getting stopped...!
@Amy_Walker Note to self - must comment more on friends pics
@jon_read I think the sigma/tamros xtra long 18-250/270 will be much much worse than even 18-200. I'd only use occasionally. need to save
@OzoneVibe @Amy_Walker @noelrooney @EmpireSteve @jon_read @angryjedi @amandagolding Extra #ff - good chats Being told to get rdy now! l8r
Wandering along the front at southsea http://post.ly/qn1x
Double take. Bright re sofa on front. This guy had brought on trailer to take photos... ! http://post.ly/qn3q
Bother. Wish i'd put more time on car. Girls may as well carry walking to gunwharf shopping!
I just earned the Ranger Pin on @gowalla! http://gowal.la/r/21p6R
@trebormints ok. Not the same tho posrtsmouth not too far from home. Barcelona is lovely. Went last summer on cruise and again next yr
@OzoneVibe some creative photography no doubt. Now if someone takes one for gen admission at silverstone that would be impressive!
@jon_read quite happy with 18-105 but need something longer.
Think our kids are too old! All looking a bit tired really http://post.ly/qnJB
Super music cheese. Its that ateam/twist track. Escaping rapidly
Looks busy in the park nr southsea castle http://post.ly/qngh
Not been to gunwharf keys for years. Impressive car park. Every space indicated red/green and spaces pointed out by area as driving around.
@hunni_h sounds like it was runt of the litter!
@Amy_Walker bit of a geeky comment. Almost took a photo but that might loose me friends... !
@Amy_Walker fully with you on that one. Saw a very pregnant woman last week smoking. Unbelievable
@sxa555 just going there to look now
@sxa555 ok. They dont. Expected 23 aug.
@MichaelxHell did you like it? My daughter keeps going on about getting one. Not that convinced about bridge. Have slr. May may be good 4her
Large gatherin around little doggie. Another family quizzing us on cockapoos..
Trying out zizzi. Sounds yum
Reallt nice around spinnaker/gunwharf. Southampton definately needs more tourist type plazas like this in portsmouth http://post.ly/qoXA
@Amy_Wass oh. Another chilli fan. I really enjoy hot chilli sauce/relish such as from naga. Picked up some yummy homemade sauces in soton
Really enjoyed the calzone in zizzi. Included salad was too small imo but minor issue.
Bit cold outside now. Lovely meal but time to head to warm car
@amandagolding braving it in the cold! Was there earlier but now getting a little cold by gunwharf...
Lovely day out in portsmouth. Photo editing or film...
@sxa555 who gets that wrong these days! And upper lower case. Please. Silly windows ppl
@sxa555 have to stand up for standards! dislike sloppiness/inaccuracies!
Decided to quickly sort through some pictures from today's trip to portsmouth. Just a small number. on their way to flickr
@MorganF1 Well just got back from zizzis and had one of their tiramisu's so there! Managed to get the craving after your post satisfied.
@Amy_Walker funnily enough today's "outing" was a toss up between portsmouth, arundel & brighton. Only stopped in arundul briefly b4 #153
Just uploaded 11 new photos to my Flickr "Portsmouth and Southsea Aug 2010" photoset: http://bit.ly/bGXkxT (Southampton #photowalk)
Just uploaded 1 new photo to my Flickr "Portsmouth and Southsea Aug 2010" photoset: http://bit.ly/bGXkxT (Southampton #photowalk)
Aahh - oops my flickr uploader still has the old photowalk annotation. sorry. it wasn't. portsmouth righ!
@sxa555 similar, but some tech worked solid - car, pressure washer, dslr, phone/gps, tv/sky/dvd, c.card - so some tech works!
@rachelclarkef1 thanks. feel free to comment on flickr. I took many more but don't upload all, just try and pick my favs.
@Amy_Walker similar. but you reminded me I have some to do from a mini london photowalk (work trip - from customer back to station).. am ->
@Amy_Walker <- planning to do london again if weather ok prob with @OzoneVibe b4 Brazilian GP beers! London photos =danger of arrest tho ??
PC descended into treacle mode. 7.5Gb committed, only 4Gb ram. looks like LR is killing it....
@Amy_Walker anything. if not working, not stuck in rush hour, weather good, london is such an amazing place to look around. Love it.
think I may have to abandon photo editing for tonight. machine bogging down & getting late.
Car park signing in gunwharf quays http://post.ly/qqW5
Led markers above each space.. Along with sensor to detect vehicle http://post.ly/qqWS
@Amy_Walker that? which one?
@Amy_Walker Yep, had to get it quickly before someone saw me. wierdo... ;-) #geek
