Haha…....I didn't trip off that, good one, yeah, when my oldest was about 2, everytime I took a pic of her, she would do that.

Here's another I forgot, just edited:

The pedal is too close to the border of the pic, urking me…...

@jacoavlu:

alright now you feckers
critique sounds like a negative thing
when just discussing and comparing…

anyway, yes you can get into bokeh talk
much the same as discussion of Japanese denim and fades etc
it can get deep...

Cris understands, seeing lots of nice bokeh from your pics

[rocket]

whatever, great pics there finn and cris!!

[crisone]

@Giles:

Expecting some IHSH-53 bokeh very shortly…

Ask, and you shall receive…........

[Giles]

Finn,  from now on, please just assume I say "nice" after you post some pics.  Will save me typing…

[Finn666]

Wow Finn they're stunning, as are all your photos infact!

[Guest]

Nice shots, guys! Finn, I love how you seem to take your camera everywhere, something I should do far more often.

@jacoavlu:

Same to you Cris
If you're like me 95% of your pics end up of your kids

More grain…
This is Fuji Neopan 1600 shot at about 1250 and developed in Diafine

Woooh! Fellow film shooter! And Leica, too.  I'm really not as good as you are, but film just gives me more satisfaction than digital. Doesn't mean film is better or anything, it's just my personal preference. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of this!

Oh, and this is about photography in general, yeah? My personal hero:

He is not extremely famous, but dude's a monster. To me almost all of his pictures have a certain magic to them. Maybe some of you can dig.

Can anyone give me some advice on a decent camera to get started with please?  One that won't cost me an arm and a leg but still a decent piece of equipment.  Thanks

most important, buy the one you will carry with you all the time
if it's big and bulky you won't take it when traveling light
