Cheers guys, soaking it up is one thing, but regurgitating it as something meaningful is another matter. I believe creativity can be learned - upto a point, I need to learn how to see more creatively. I see Central St Martins have a huge number of short courses, but picking the right one is...

Not sure which thread to put this in - mods please feel free to move. I'm shooting products for my own home accessories business, and I'm quite happy with the general results. I can set up the lights, camera background etc, but I am having real trouble designing a set. I can take the product...

Just to say that I ordered the Sigma 150mm OS from DigitalRev last week and arrived safe and well this morning - many thanks Julia for the priority Very pleased with their service and will definitely use them again:thumbs:

Cheers Jeff, to be fair Tori, the officer has been very helpful and did suggest that if goes back up they can have a word with them if I wish. Hi Gramps as I said earlier I would be uncomfortable having a full-time policeman coming round, but it was the community support guy and he took a walk...

Camera has been removed, strangely enough almost as soon as the community officer left!! Spoke to him this morning and confirmed that there was not much the police could do, but he did comment that he was seen as he left my house yesterday "a fair bit of curtain twitching" was his words. So...

Just had the local community support officer, he's had a good look from the upstairs window. He agrees it is very strange but nothing they can do if its pointing into the garden, however he's going to have a word with his sergeant as the case could be made that it is also pointing into the...

Hi guys, I've spoken to the police and the local community support officer is coming round this afternoon - will keep you informed.

Hi Suz, don't really want to look too much, who becomes the snooper then?

Wow! lots of replies & lots of views, I have no problem with a camera facing into their own garden and ours still being in the frame, but having it facing directly into ours is a bit strange, considering it has been perched on a box so that it has a clear view and is not just been left on the...

Cheers Craig, just don't want to go off at half-cock, wife's convinced it's dodgy but I'd like to know more.Can anyone ID this, its hanging outside the window??? Sorry for the quality

I thought about that, but it has the usb plugged in and is sitting on a box to point over the window frame & its still in the same position since mid april.

I had to take some pictures of the back of our house back in April as I was selling something on eBay. One of the shots I had also included part of the neighbours house - no big deal until I noticed a camera in the 1st floor window. I don't know what style you call the windows but they protrude...

Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated. Will be giving them a go shortly.

I've seen digitalrev advertising on here, and just wondered if anyone has used them. I'm looking to buy a new Sigma 150 macro and their prices are the best I've come across. Cheers
