I was wondering if anyone knew who I need to approach to acquire a photo pass, specifically at Rock City. There's a few gigs I'd like to get a pass for but not sure on the procedure. Some years ago a colleague at my work place got me a pass for The Damned at Rock City and would love to...

I've got a Sigma 10-20mm but would like a Canon 10-22mm instead, I was wondering if anyone knows any good sites where I can part exchange my Sigma for a Canon?

Auto drives me up the bloody wall, it never works out for me so I permanantly have the camera set to Manual

For a long while I've wanted to photograph birds (and other wildlife), I was thinking maybe the Sigma 500mm f4.5 but thought I'd ask for opinions first as to the quality of this lens, its suitability and so on.

I'm hoping to get one before I jet off to South Africa in the next few months! :D I'm...

Hehe cheers, I had to scent the mirror to keep them interested in one spot! :D

I was thinking the other day "wouldn't it be great to make a poster out of one of my photos!" :P So would like your opinions on what picture(s) of mine would look good as posters as I just can't decide lol Here's a link to a site I've recently made where I've put my pictures up...
