Yep definitely, very popular Explored photos for me used to be hitting 1k ish, on Monday one of mine got 4500 (and over 100 faves) in a single day without being in any groups and just with about 6 tags. About 10% of views are coming from unknown sources these days, much higher than previously...

Forgot about that site, cheers. 4k views now, amazing what an Explore does, not really sure how it got there as at the time it was in the middle of a 12 photo upload, was in no groups and only had a few basic tags.

1500 views so far today, going up at a rate of about 100 every 20 minutes at the moment, so I assume it's been explored recently... Westbury White Horse Sunset by Harry_S, on Flickr

A couple from a nice evening up on Salisbury Plain... Westbury White Horse Sunset by Harry_S, on Flickr Westbury White Horse Sunset by Harry_S, on Flickr Westbury White Horse Sunset by Harry_S, on Flickr

A possibility, hoping to try something else next weekend though... Westbury White Horse Sunset by Harry_S, on Flickr

Camdiox ones on eBay are cheap and apparently pretty good (much better than Tiffen in terms of colour cast), big thread on Talk Photo about them...http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/threads/excellent-cheap-10-stop.520613/ Also here: http://srb-photographic.co.uk/camdiox-nd1000-filter-1069-c.asp

Baaaah... Whaddon Sheep by Harry_S, on Flickr

I've only used the Sigma but it's a good lens for the money, I certainly had no complaints with it. Just make sure whichever you get has an AF motor built in, as the D3200 doesn't have the internals to drive AF by itself.

Its a hard thing to get 'right', in my opinion. Offering up as little as possible but still telling a story, good use of negative space etc. I have a few ideas but no idea if I will nail them in the next 3 weeks!

Did you enjoy the High Line? One of my favourite places in NYC now, really want to go back for an evening stroll one day.

The wife is obsessed, bags, mugs, key ring, make-up bag! She went shopping whilst I went taking photos for 3hrs one day last November...

Just playing with my Sigma 35mm ART. f1.4 is insane on a FF body, needed f2 for this just to get more than a tiny bit of lettering in focus... Big Brown Mug by Harry_S, on Flickr

Fantastic photos, love how every single person who goes to NYC comes back with completely different styles of photo.

Yep I've got no excuses with those two lenses, things don't get much better than those so I will have to step my game up!

Canon 20-35 was knackered, returned and replaced with a Sigma 35mm 1.4 ART, happy days :)

The postie dropped off some L goodness today... - Canon 135mm f2 (needs no explanation) - Canon 20-35mm f2.8 (discontinued lens, about 20 years old and pretty rare now, £200! Absolute steal, apparently sharper than the modern replacements, solid metal too, they often sell for double that so...

Or buy some close up filters and bolt them onto a 50mm 1.8. A Hoya Close Up +4 gets in very close on a 50mm, nice cheap way of experimenting.

I think if I bought the 24-105 I would forever be wanting the primes, so heading that way. Need to settle on something and stick with it as we've got a little one on the way in September and finances won't quite be so flexible then!

The Crumpler Singapore Sling is very nice to use, and it attaches by the side lugs, not the tripod mount, which personally I feel is a big advantage. Walked around NYC for 5 days with a D600 and 180mm 2.8 hanging off of it and barely noticed.

Erm, may have bought a 5D MkII today ;) Bit stuck though, ideally don't want to spend more than about £800 to nail everything below motorsport focal lengths (i.e. 24-120mm), big gaps are fine as long as I have something around 30mm and something around 100mm, used is also fine when factoring in...

The people carrier moment was a rare insight into just what that much power means in real life, it was travelling a fair bit quicker than the P1, then it instantly went backwards as soon as Harris hit the throttle. Bonkers.

Entry Illuminating Lacock Abbey by Harry_S, on Flickr

Exactly the same situation with mine, I'm fairly confident people scan these wallpaper sites (which are nice high resolution) to sell on without royalties etc. All of my photos have been fully unlocked and downloadable from Flickr and my Smugmug in the past, but the only one that has really got...

My insurer seems a little bit confused by this... I have 3 'normal' places of work in my job as we are a multi-site business, however I only ever commute to and from one of them in a day, i.e. we never travel between sites during a work day. For whatever reason this seems to be a weird grey...

A brand new 60D would be in budget and a massive leap up from your 300D in terms of features, high ISO etc. that's the only obvious upgrade in my opinion... http://www.digitaldepot.co.uk/canon-eos-60d-body-only.html?pid=1756

Beautiful day today, flew around my local country lanes for a few hours... Mango by Harry_S, on Flickr Mango by Harry_S, on Flickr

I've owned the Samyang, great lens. I was very concerned as it my first manual lens, but as it's a fisheye it's almost impossible to take an out of focus shot with it, even at fairly wide apertures everything more than about 2ft in front of you is in focus anyway. That said, the Nikon 10.5 is...

There is only $200m ish in the vault! Even using the cheapest possible team and using the obvious approach it would be impossible to get more than about $35m. I took the obvious approach, didn't drop any gold but used a reasonable team who took a bigger cut, $20-30m is the average score.

Oddly I've literally just this second completed the story, only 62% complete though so plenty to do yet. Had it since release week but don't get much time for gaming, really enjoyed it though. Highlight by far was the bank heist out in the sticks (with the military gear), great fun. Next on my...

Stick it in manual and scroll to 30sec, bulb should be next. I'm positive it will have a bulb mode, I'm not aware of a DSLR that doesn't. The good old Nikon ML-L3 will be your best bet, cheap and cheerful but gets the job done.
