    I like it man. Knew a few of those things, but mostly was new and valid for me. Awesome one thanks.

    My personal tip: buy a 4Gb flash card. Fill it up. No matter how poor a shot you are, you are bound to take a good one sooner or later. Delete the rest.

Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true ... they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so all are easier to fool." -- Wizard's First Rule

    Nice - a bit light on my system - magazine wise I'd do this to it. (sorry the quality suffers when re-jpegging)

    wow, im a fan of photography... thats sound advice right there.. great!!

    I think I have been inspired to get out there and take some more pics...

    my goal is to make a book of a whole lot of my pictures, and leave it in a coffee shop one day for people to find and look at and read and maybe write some comments in.. then come back and see what the result is.. heh...

    Big Dave, cheers mate, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge publicly on KB. Just have a few questions :

    What camera do you recommend? I know it's a bit like saying what tyres should I buy? Will depend on your budget as well but what brands are the better ones in your opinion? What type of SLR should you be looking at, if you're planning to buy one?

    I see you changed the angle of Sparkys pic aye? What programme do you normally use to edit? Mac?

    Do you have to buy and carry different special lenses to achieve good pictures? And what sort of distance should you be from the bike?

    Thanks and sorry for the no0ob photography questions but your pictures are awesome!!
