Love the pic, but you need a large pipe and a leather bound book to complete the image.







I am not taking a piss on you. I am merely adding my insanity to the artistic statement you have made.


... also lower the lighting intensity and make it more directional from the short side, leaving the short side to go into deep shadow.

I was messing about with the wireless flash feature to see how well it worked, so I wasn't really thinking of light placement and such. I'd bring out the heavy duty studio lights for shots like that. :laugh:

It looks like Wireless works kick ass for exposure.

Now, are you interested in finding if wireless can do "creative?"  Once I had (back in the old days) several slave flashes that had 1/3 stop settings, I found that auto-settings could actually do some cool stuff.  You just have to learn the right lies to tell the flash units.


I had a string I used to set them up quickly. I had knots tied in ONE STOP distances (anywhere in between it is possible to interpolate - using the square root of two and its reciprocal) and measured things with that "master string."  It made it easy to get all the settings right, first try.

I don't want people defending the non-existent insecurity I have over my weight. ???

I am a fat cunt, but I've better things to worry about. Have the man-tits, double chin and belly to prove it. A couple of jokes is hardly going to annoy me.
Maybe so, but you're not even half the size of that other guy. You look tired.

GA is transitioning nicely

I like to think so, thanks :)

The perm is nice.
You are getting more pretty all the time, Ace.
NOT my type, though, so take my compliment as one a brother might make.

Thank you. :)

The 'perm' is actually my natural hair style, I usually straighten it, but my Mum and sisters decided that I would look better with curls.

Maybe I've had an aneurysm or something, but Schleed doesn't look overly fat to me.
Well you do tend more towards having a stick in your ass than having a sense of humor.

Posted someone's video of the protest on facebook if anyone's interested. It's about 10 mins long I think, but you can see where I live and me walking around looking like I dunno what I'm doing   :autism: (I was near the front - with the kids lol - so I'm in it quite a bit I think)

What's the issue with the incinerator?? is it just a case of "not in my backyard"?? or is it an all around bad idea??

We don't want it here first and foremost, but against them in general, from what I've read about them. I'll admit I'm far ffrrom being an erxpert on the subject, but the only sources that point to anythig positive seem to ber VERY biased (for example in our case, the company trying to get planning permission). Most people in my town who are strongly against it are parents concerned about their kids' health
