flickr

I had to pay for flickr this evening, my two years subscription ran out today.
The cost for this marvel of marvels? £23 for two years unlimited photo storage. The beauty with flickr is that the photos never go away they are always there (yes you do have to pay to see them but..)
Whilst there I looked at the blog and saw a new partner HP where you can print out your photos on a pdf that turns into a full colour cube which is kind of cool. you can also print out a full colour (a4) collage from your photos. If you have lots of photos and want to share them this is one of the easiest ways to store and share them with others.
A Christmas tip is to print off 100 Moo cards for gift tags or even gifts themselves!

flickr gets mashed

mashable has 11 (count em!) nice little browsing hacks for the greatest (so far) online photo storage site flickr.com
so browse away beware one of them is definitely not safe for work :)

Yvonne & Kev's wedding...

Just got back in from Yvonne & Kev's wedding at Cannock registry office with a reception at The Barns Huntingdon.
The sun was out and we knew it was going to be hot when we got into the car and the dashboard thermometer say its 25° exactly - phew!
If you want to see the photos please visit my flickr page
Oh and it turns out i was to be the semi official photographer! i had just (Monday) brought a new canon eos 400D camera and so the first photos (bar the 12 i had already taken to make sure the thing worked!) are Yvonnes and Kevins. Img_0013 is the start and Img_0400 is the end thats not bad, if i had played with it more (or read the manual) then i am sure we could have seen some more stunners.

The Tate Gallery

the tate has embarked on a new exhibition head over to flickr to see the group that they have setup or visit the tate online or in person and you could see your items at the tate
