RAW here. Apart from Timelapse snapping, I haven't found a use for JPG yet :)

Lovely

So when the whole country is private land, but allows public access, you'll still defend the private land owners? I would encourage anyone to fight against this trend, not just defend it like you are doing. There's no logical reason to allow the public access, but then deny them the...

What EOS JD said above. Lightroom not only provides 99% of my pic editing needs, it's cataloguing, keywords, rating and export functions are superb for managing a collection of images. My image collection exceeds 100,000 now and Lightroom handles this with ease. :)

Definitely added an adjustment brush to those eyes and increased the exposure by nearly a stop. Easily done in Lightroom.

Why only Canon or Nikon?

Agreed on all counts. :thumbs::thumbs: Pathetic Guff indeed!!

That's correct :)

I would disagree about that, but it's beyond the scope of this thread to discuss the largely, IMO fabricated scaremongering about 'Terror' Sure, but people taking photographs is not suspicious or out of the ordinary behaviour. it's perfectly normal behaviour. The very fact that...

Good reply 'admirable' - I must coment on your point #3 and agree Indeed. I wouldn't have let a police officer delete my images or destroy my film. I would actually physically resist them from doing so as I know the law and they have no right to do so with out a court order. In this case I...

yes I agree about conmen sense. Common sense dictates that it's stupid to place sensitive information in your bank building that can be snapped by photographers You're demolishing your own point. Where's the difference between someone snapping these areas for purely photographic purposes...

The only people that made security look bad, was the security. I went to canary wharf two weeks ago, which is exactly the same sort of banking area. I went to take pictures, I DID NOT go with any agenda to provoke security. I got exactly the same reaction from 'security' as the people on...

Why will it be better?

You should watch to the end. The police turn up at the end and are completely on the side of the photographers and agree that they are perfectly within their rights to take photographs. Result :)
