I am a relatively tolerant person and what doesn’t get stammered by that is quelled by the RB “Play nice Policy” BUT 260 favoritings by one person in a 12 hour period clogging up my “Favourites of my watchlist” feed is opening up a tin of worms in my head ! To put it in perspective…thats around 20 an hour or 1 every 3 min…

Consequently I haven’t been about RB much to gather those 3 favorites th…

Monday Musings #10
Recently I purchased a Macro 1:1 lens and although I haven’t used it much, very quickly the need for skill and patience required to use one effectively became apparent to me.Up until now I have used a zoom (200mm) to get “closeups” which from memory is 1:4.5.The latter seemed to me much easier to use, life changes dramatically at 1:1, you see things you didnt before and then capturing them (ani…

Lately I am so caught up in the complexities of life that my Nikon stands forlornly on a tripod in a corner begging my attention.Soon my friend…soon.
