I have nothing against fur (so long as it's still attached to its original owner) - I'd say just ask the yeti, but he's not on here...
But I still say it looks like black dye from his trunks running down his thigh!
Have a great dinner - and give her a hug from me please?
I am usually able to get decent shots of people who don't like being photographed partly because I know my camera well enough to not have to fiddle around with settings too muh, and partly because I can keep up an inane banter for long enough to get the person to forget about the camera and concentrate on the babbling idiot instead
However, I don't like taking pics of people much...
Which is why I've started making a point of going for a walk with my camera every lunchtime and photographing bits of London, including buildings with cctv cameras on them (actually the real challenge would be to take a picture of a building that didn't have one on...)
For reasons I'm not going to go into here, some of the BT buildings near to where I work are future targets.
Diverting into a rant here...
The police in London seem more interested in targetting photographers with SLR (DSLR) kit, on the grounds that terrorists need photos of areas they're planning to target. Now I'm not a terrorist, but if I wanted to take pictures of targets to bomb or whatever I'd either use a mobile like the countless hordes of tourists, or I'd use a small compact to quickly take the shot before moving on (maybe I ought to rethink my lunchtime technique... hrm...). I wouldn't want to draw too much attention to myself by using a sodding slr and tripod.
Diverting into more of a rant and more off topic (what am I doing now? Ranting about the increasing similarities between the UK and a police state) - the Met (I think - a UK police force anyways) put up posters encouraging people to report their neighbours to the police if they thought the neighbours had too many mobile phones. Too many mobiles?
I know quite a few people who I am relatively sure aren't terrorists who have three different phones and sims - a work one, a personal one and a spare one they can give to people they're not sure of (arranging meet-ups on the 'net and the like). There's people I work with who, because of their job, have been known to carry around 4 or 5! And all these legitimate reasons aside, just how much prying and curtain-twitching do you have to do to work your neighbour has more than mobile phone, let alone "too many" of the things?
Anyway - can I have ZCP please? With extra chocolate and extra ZC?
