Grats Marac - I've got it and love it to bits. It's a fantastic lens and really quick. It'll be amazing on a 5D or full frame but I love the semi distorted results I get on a 1.6x (my 30D). Enjoy :)

EDIT: This just in - France24 published the story about photographers and the new Met Police campaign...

You have to book them for a time slot. I have booked for 15:30 on 16th March, and got a 10% discount by booking online. Now just got to hope the weather is fairly good, but either way it seemed like a great way to round off the day:)) |

Ah! The old "bum bag" versus "fanny pack" debate! Takes me back a few years to my my faggot-eating and rubber-wielding days of English versus International English misunderstanding. Best wipe me face with a serviette and get dinner from the fish and chip shop... |

I had a bit of a giggle in California when I asked for a jug of water - the waitress laughed hard and suggested I asked for a pitcher of water...

Ah, yes, thanks for the reminder. I need to work tickets for Tuesday. Jelena, I'll be heading down sometime in the morning - we'll work the details later, 'k? I'm quite looking forward to all this, even if you will be giving me a hard time about language barriers and such. Oh, and Natalya - you just need to tell me when your train is coming and to where, and I'll meet you there. Assuming I can find "there"....

| Speaking of German, I tried practicing my "Es ist meine Hobby" on some women I took a picture of today when they asked me what I was taking pictures for - they responded in English. I really need to practice more. |

I'll have a small language gift for Deb, as well, and Deb, we can practice all you'd like on the day (of course, I'm rubbish at it, but still).

Hey Guys!!
Do you know what Sunday 16th March is??
It's St Patrick's Day Parade in London!! Could be very interesting? |

Sounds cool.
I'll probably come by car now, a fellow student from the photography society is giving me and one of our models a ride if things go as planned. |

Steve, do you know what route this is?
Crowds are NOT good for me in the chair so I might need to rethink my attendance if we'll be near to this :o( (don't worry, I'll pass the name badges on to Deb) ;o) |

Nope, but I'll check out the Metro paper tomorrow. I think they gather at Trafalgar Square either at start or the end. So, we may have to deviate slightly if things get too busy, but don't worry I have had plenty of practice getting chariots through crowds!! There are loads of bruised ankles to prove it!! |
