    Last day of school prank...

    Senior School We set fire to someone for a laugh. Not a good idea thinking back. He was a mate though, we didn't do it out of hate or anything. Junior School We had a really strict teacher who used to come to school on a bike. We let his tyres down and nicked his pump. My...

    The Football Thread - Season 2013/2014

    I guess that's a bit skewed because of the Torres fee. Just like the 4yr United one is because of Ronaldo

    The Football Thread - Season 2013/2014

    Haven't the Liverpool owners come out and said there is a specific amount of money available for transfers this year. I'm thinking £50 million for some reason. Don't know if this money is on top of anything they can bring in as well. 15 million already in for Carroll. Suarez might being a...

    what to shoot

    There's a lot of good tips on this thread. I've just bought a 50/1.8 lens and my next lens will probably be a macro lens. I've downloaded the PDFs on the Going Candid thread http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=5595085#post5595085 and they contain some great...

    The Football Thread - Season 2013/2014

    I don't agree in the Europa League or FA Cup winners getting a Champions League place. The Champions League should be for the teams who have consistently performed in their domestic leagues over the season. You can win cups with a bit of luck or a favourable draw. The champions league isn't...

    best place to buy a lens

    I meant buying anything from the far east through ebay can be a bit of a gamble. I;ve head lots of stories of people being ripped off or been sent fake items.

    what to shoot

    I've got the chance to go out with a couple of professionals in a couple of weeks. I'm umming and arghing about it at the moment but I really should go with them. They're going around the canals and railway arches of Manchester. When I look at some of their work, some of the subjects...

    what to shoot

    That's just it. I don't know. I like looking at landscapes and portraits but also life many other types of photos. I'm not confident enough to do portraits and probably never will be. I'm painfully shy and lack in confidence. I like scooters and they are another thing I always end up...

    what to shoot

    As a beginner, the biggest problem with photography I have is actually going out abd taking photos. I must have had a DSLR for 2 or 3 years now. I'm always reading up on photography, either looking at photos or reading tutorials, online or in books. But whenever I take my camera out...

    Indoor football

    It's at the international futsal arena. So I guess it's the same pace. I'm very much a beginner so I don't have the best equipment. A Canon 450 with a 18-55mm lenses, a 85-300mm lens which I think is 4-5.4f and a 1.8 50mm prime

    Indoor football

    Not sure of the venue yet. It was only mentioned tonight as a possibility for some photos for their new website as the team are launching as a new name. They do have a tournament in Birmingham next month though.

    Indoor football

    It'll be 5 or 6 aside. Possibly 7. Played on a basketball size pitch. The game is actually futsal or futbol de salao, if you know either of them. The players will be under 14's

    'Instagram Wedding'...

    Love the tangent this thread has gone off on. If you ask for for a well done fillet steak, you are an idiot. Just the same as someone who is willing to spend hundreds or thousands of pounds on instagram style wedding photos. Unfortunately (or fortunately if you're looking for easy money)...

    Tutorial Everything you need to know about exposure theory but were afraid to ask 101.

    I've read all of that sort information before but you have put it better than most. I'm be printing it out next week and having a few reads of it over the next few weeks to try and get it to sink in.
