thebeing i see that a bunch of people use kingston. hm... in my nikon manual, kingston is not an approved brand, and one could lose the warranty for the camera for using kingston memory card. that is stupid. i have a kingston miniSD card which i used with an SDadapter...

thebeing well, i didn't dropped mine. and it wasn't old. i was quite new, meaning it was purchased about 1 month before it failed me. i am quite careful with my gear.

hey, guys! got my d90 a couple of days ago. I upgraded from the nikon d70, and the changes are WOW! Unquestionable better image quality, the 3inches LCD instead of 1.8inches is really something, and the way it works with my lenses...

how can there be truth to religion, when "God's" message, if there is a God, has been corrupted by humans, for so long? I come from a "Christian" family, but one which has members on four sides of the same fense, if you will,...

thebeing the 10 commandments are from the OLD testament. The new testament brings NO new rules whatsoever. Maybe you should read the Bible more carefuly, before making statements about it. And the church was invented to control mankind, and to guide it only to serve...

thebeing hello! The colour is from lighting and background. In post production i only enhanced the saturation a bit, sharpened it a bit and cleaned up the photo (my sensor is quite dusty, and having the fact that i shot this photo at f/8, i had quite a few dust spots...
