Back from Holiday!

Well I've been back from holiday for a few days now and am still wishing I was in Scotland. It's SUCH a nice place!

If you need some convincing on whether or not the scenery is worth it, check out our Flickr Scottish Holiday group.

Below are a selection of snaps from the holiday

A day later than I wanted to but here are some photos I took while at the Saturday Muse concert at Wembley Stadium - the first sell-out show at the new venue in North London. They're also the first "proper band" to play there (George Michael is a solo artist).

Canon EOS 400D : Nikon E4600 : Sony Ericsson K800i

I bought my girlfriend a Canon EOS 400D a few months back and I'm impressed with every photo that comes out of it - but I recently wondered if that was just because I KNEW it was a good camera. How good is it really? I mean, my Sony Ericsson K800i has a FANTASTIC camera on it (considering its a phone) and the Nikon E4600 I have (and my girlfriend had before her 'upgrade') took great photo's considering its price and it was VERY rugged. How could I test this... So I took all 3 camera's out and took 2 sets of photo's with each camera. Guess who won?

Girlfriend + Camera = playing with fire!

After my girlfriend started showing an interest in photography I decided to buy her a new camera as a surprise. I chose the Canon EOS 400D and she has had it for almost 3 weeks now and already she has come up with some STUNNING photo's.

Her first shots with it were wildlife and nature based…

My walk home...

photos K800i cool

Last week (Thursday I think) I worked late and ended up walking from work (near Barbican Tube Station, London) to London Bridge Station (about a 35 minute walk if you know the back-roads). Putting aside the fear of being mugged down an alley somewhere, I quite like walking through London when its dark. The lights often look beautiful.
