It looks like we're in for crappy weather over the next few days and I want to do some shooting.
Forests/waterfalls are nice in rainy/heavy overcast conditions.

True story. That reminds me, I need to go out to Lal Lal falls and take a peak around.

Speaking of remotes, the Nikon ones are priced very high, how do the Pearstone Wireless ShutterBoss & Hahnel Giga T Pro rate?

Anyone have any luck in the Better Photography awards this year?

I know that chamellieon and Aramis have a number of images that have placed well, but anyone else?

My girlfriends mates boyfriend got an 1100D as his first camera earlier this week (completely ignoring my suggestion of a second had XXXD and lenses), now im not saying that my camera is the best, but that thing feels like a toy.

Is this how people with XXD (or XD for that matter) series camera feel when handling an xxxD series camera?

The 600D and 550D don't feel that much of a toy... got some weight to it, has some rubberish gripping which is neat...

I had a 400D as a spare and that felt like a toy...

If you're going to go with yongnuo then get the RF603 model, each one is both a transmitter and receiver, I have four of them and they work realy well.
