My work is being exhibited in the Tunnels at the Old Vic Theatre in London in February if anyone is in the area. 12th, I believe.

Food and rink available, prints for sale, etc...

Massively stoked about it, The Old Vic Tunnels were opened by Banksy and held one of his exhibitions. Awesome bragging rights.

No money involved, but I do get to sell my work there, and 3000 people are expected to attend, according to the organiser, so it should be good. Main thing is seeing my work on a wall though, that's a major buzz.

Congrats sir, I love exhibitions, especially if it is my own work :D

If I didn't live on the other side of the country, i'd definitely pay a visit. Good luck!

Got something a bit different to contribute here:

http://ow.ly/i/5I40

A photograph of a product I'm currently shooting for a client. It's a tricky on. It's the white cock shaped thing on the table. It's a massage stone that he's designed, and he's about to launch it through his company.

Only problem is, I'm having huge problems shooting it in a way that doesn't make it look like a cock.

So yeah, one of the many problems faced during commercial photography.

The failure will be if I provide him with a shot that just looks like a well-lit dick. He never mentioned any phallic similarities, so ostensibly, I will be to blame should that those similarities become apparent.

Tricky one.

Also of note is the tube of Pringles on the farthest light acting as a snoot!

600mm F4 IS to shoot Bald Eagles with if there are some clear days during my vacation.
Won't be buying one anytime soon though - its about $8000.

i've always wondered: what's the handle-looking thing for on those long lenses? is it actually just what it appears to be? (i.e. a handle :tard: )

You attach that part to the tripod instead of the camera body. Moves the centre of gravity forward and takes the stress off the lens mount. Also, the larger lenses like that have a mount that rotates, so you can move from portrait to landscape without having to fuck about with the tripod.
