Want to see some good looking pictures?

Top notch photo gallery featuring a nice introductory flash movie with sound ...


Looking at work like that, taken with relatively old-fashioned and simple, though not necessarilly cheap, equipment is like listening to live music rather than a digital recording. A wee thrill passes up and down your spine. It's real.

Sadly, we are cursed to live in a multi-megapixel age; filled with soul-less images, music, flavours and experiences. Do yourself a favour, listen to a live band or play one of your old LPs, drink some home made wine, cook a meal from scratch, give your mobile phone and satellite decoder a nice long bath ...

then try and take some pictures like this bloke does and fail; woefully and miserably. Like I do.

Nothing beats live music, that is for sure.
