Light Painting

Thanks to looking at this site I have found a new way to play with my camera.

Take a look at the photo’s below, basically in a dark room setting the shutter to over 5 seconds, I used bulb most of the time on these with my remote shutter and running around with an LED […]

Political Gain

There was a very brief time in South Africa when the same feeling of hope that Barack Obama has instilled was floating around. It was, of course, marred a little by the fears of civil war and stockpiling of baked beans – but as a young schoolboy I believed in a system. Dare I say […]

Breakfast In Bed

I have never been one for eating breakfast (unless of course it’s at 4am and I don’t know what my name is). The reason is simply because I have always had trouble waking up in the morning. Since my very first schooldays, even though my mother tried her hardest to get me out of bed […]

Facebook Plugin

I have just added a new widget on the blog which allows you to use your Facebook login to add comments and receive notifications. By registering you are doing your part to help yet another corporate get one step closer to world domination, and more importantly help yourself by adding comments anywhere you want without […]

Be My Friend?

My wife asked me an interesting question a few days ago. She wanted to know if I would ever add someone that I bullied at school as a friend on Facebook. Something about being mature and all adult like.

No really, I did

I said no, mainly because she had already started making […]

Google Knows You

And probably better than you know yourself. As you very well know, Google is the supreme being who knows the answer to any question you have ever had. Surveys show that the average Internet user visits the single fielded site and asks a question no less than five times a day. I don’t have to […]

Credit Card Fraud – DRI*ELEMENT5.COM

Update: If any of this has happened to you, please leave a comment at the bottom of the page and let me know which state you live in, this seems to be happening especially to people who have paid traffic fines in NYC.

I had the unfortunate experience of having a fraudulent transaction posted to […]

Leaving Las Vegas

Not an original sign

Ah Las Vegas, Sin City and the Entertainment Capital Of The World. It is the iconic city of debauchery, nudity and gambling. Supposedly where everything and anything goes, which is partly true – if you can afford it.

To be fair to the countless people that have been to […]

Blu Ray Review

It’s time for the big review. This one is going to crush your dreams I’m afraid, but at least I’ll save you some money.

To start off with a disclaimer, I want to stress that I am not a video/sound professional, I have never worked during my high school holidays at an electronics store and […]

Time Lapse – Reception

So here’s my second attempt.

One of my gifts from my wife on my birthday was a night in a really beautiful bed and breakfast. We had a room looking over the courtyard and there happened to be a wedding reception going on.

200 frames (0.8″ exposure, f/3.5), played back at 15fps. I stopped just […]

Cheap Trips

I have heard from more than one person that my mother raised a very well mannered young man and that she should be proud of how I have grown up. They’re probably all right in saying that, I do have impeccable table

Is that a Rubiks cube?

manners, I hold doors open for […]

Tow Truck Tourist

To whom it may concern,

I have just returned to Florida from New York City. This was my fourth trip to the wonderful city that I have grown to love as a tourist.

As we have previously, my wife and I stayed with her brother in his house in Queens and even though the weather […]

Flying School

On Friday night, (30th Jan 2009) three of us went to a Trapeze school in New York for our birthdays. It was a complicated gift giving between my wife, her brother and me.

There’s not much to say, other than after 2 hours we slightly looked like we knew what we were doing. No injuries, […]
