Mine is https://Instagram.com/chrisdavie23 I've had it for years but only recently started to post stuff to it.

I think we should question everything, don't take what you are told as gospel! Some people do tend to take the conspiracy stuff a bit too far though! Keep an open mind but also apply some common sense :-)

I have owned the canon 1.8, 1.4, 1.2 and the sigma 1.4. Out of them all I was most impressed by the sigma. Compared to the canon 1.4 I found the sigma to produce much nicer images. I'm sure its quite subjective though, but I preferred the bokeh and contrast of the sigma.

I seen a friend light a match, flick it out then ping it 10 feet and the wind caught it and sent it right up a girls nose. Total freak accident but I couldn't stop laughing for months/years after it. I'm sitting here giggling now actually...

Nothing strange about it at all! I know a lot of 60+ gamers on both consoles and pc platforms.

If you want it you are probably best just biting the bullet as you might be waiting a long time for a substantial price decrease!

I was thinking about this a while ago too. I might start printing off the very best of my work onto Silver Halide so it lasts well after I snuff it so my great grandchildren can laugh at my efforts! I don't trust digital backup at all now, and would rather have something I can hold and look at...

It seems there's no real easy was to search for a large batch, that's a shame really! Would have been nice to drop hundreds of small images into a folder and hit a big button lol. Ah well, if I get bored one night I might have a wee search using the google image finder. Cheers for the replies.

Hmm, so tempting to move over to the "dark" side now that I have shifted some canon gear. Maybe if the 7d sells I might look into the D800 :naughty:

I was just curious how people go about finding out if someone has used your images. Do you check everything one by one via the google image finder or is there a batch program out there for checking multiple images? I would quite like to see if any of my photographs have been used for anything...

I heard the later ones are good too.

If fuel isn't THAT much of an issue then I think these look to be amazing value for what you get. (They look £50k+ imo) I have seen these going locally for 6-9k so I'm sure you would find something in your price range! http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3656626.htm

Why not pay a clued up friend or mechanic to go with you to the local car auctions, theres some bargains to be had if you know what to avoid. The last car I got from the auctions lasted me 2 years trouble free motoring and I actually sold it for a profit!

I don't think it's possible in this country to live of that amount if you take fuel/power usage into account. Even if you did manage to buy cheap beans and bread, by the time you toasted it you would be well over your £1 budget! Maybe if you went to the hills and made a makeshift home and...

It's starting to get a bit crazy here too (Just outside Glasgow). I drove past two stations, one has ran out of fuel and the other had about 40 cars in a queue waiting on the road to get in to fill up.
