Think of me like Yoda,
but instead of being little and green,
I wear suits and I'm awesome.

Blue one is a simple led torch, bright white one is my Mountain bike night light.

The mix of colours is excellent. Great photo too. Even without the lights it would've been cool.

That is a prick of a corner that one, I remember it well.

Here are a few of the kids from my impromptu worm rescue lecture today. I get a kick out of children enjoying their natural environment. Difficult to zoom in when your worm and subject are both in motion.

They are really really easy to do, just need a tripod/sturdy thing to rest camera on.

That was on a 5mp panasonic point & shoot. I took a series of overlapping images and stitched them together using panoramic software

Fucks sakes I hate this sites image rape. Not only does it squash the image but it does it's own shitty compression.

Image is a lot sharper and in focus that what it is showing here.

photoshop cant do what ptgui can do in terms of huge stitching jobs. PS just shat itself with my 44 photo pano, PTGui lapped it up and did a awesome job.
