Has anyone here joined up to last.fm? If so i have created a group for the photography section of boards.
Last.fm is a useful little tool for ones to share and discover new music. I’ve discovered alot of new bands over the past year or two and would highly recommend it. Check it out and if you think you’d be interested then join the group and discover some great new music.

Something to bring some joy and glee to your mind (which is a welcome relief from doom and gloom).

Nice one - I went looking for a new card reader on Sunday but was let down by the cheap plastic type ones which were in store - were price reflects quality.
( i once bought one in Argos a few years ago, when i opened the box the card reader was in half )

Alright.

I've had enough. And not one IBTL post.

Calina · 10-03-2009 12:52PM

What a wholesale waste of a significant post.

Anyway dog sledding from The Big Picture at the moment, plus the guy who runs it has an additional blog here.

strobist guys, do you have meetings that don't feature models? I saw some great work done with a shipwreck on flickr and would be interested in playing around with that.

Calina · 10-03-2009 12:53PM

also, new one on me, Sports photography blog from the Boston Globe.

It is absolutely fantastic. I am just in awe.

Just in case anyone suffers from insomnia, Boards.ie has a scheduled downtime from 1am to 8am tonight/tomorrow. ((Probably be back before 8am but don't plan on it))

Sorting out some corruption they say. Hmmnnnn..... Does that mean brown envelopes will be in alphabetical order in the morning

Nisio · 20-03-2009 05:54PM

Boooo, the FM2n I borrowed got 24 exposures through the first roll of film before jamming. On holidays in Barcelona. It's at the shop now; hope it doesn't cost much to repair

Calina · 20-03-2009 08:32PM
