    Taking "better" pics

    Oh, I see. Apologies :oops: I don't really understand cameras so much, but I've had this happen and I thought I could help :) But yeah, I guess the fact that I don't use SRL's so often speaks for itself :)

    London Riots

    Absolute insanity has taken over the country and it's spreading fast. Now that it has reached Birmingham, I don't think there will be an obstacle for it to spread through the Midlands. Yet I wonder why all the country's leaders have decided to cut their holidays short just yesterday or today...

    Courier Service

    http://www2.parcelforce.com/ I always use them, maybe cause I'm not familiar with any other less popular services, which might be better. Or did you send it already? If you did, do tell us what you used and how much it was.

    Taking "better" pics

    It might depend on the camera. I mean I'm not familiar with this module, but my camera wasn't really fit for macros and they never came out as good as I had hoped. It is fit for macro, I would also suggest fiddling manually with the settings and trying what looks how. Since we don't know what...

    MACRO SHOTS OF TINY FISH AND SHRIMP IN NANO TANK

    Yeah, I thought it was an orchid, but I don't really understand flowers, you see :oops: Love the way it hangs, yeah, and the blossoms are particularly nice. Would've bought this for home if there was any sunshine getting into the bloody house (or is it fine with less light?). I should look it...

    10 planted tank myths

    Good article, my dear sir. Happy to see this online and happy that someone has challenged the existing myths when it comes to tanks. I had only 2 bulbs back when I had a planted tank in my flat in Paris, but admittedly didn't really grow too many plants in there (had troubles with dedication...

    Anyone got advice for working in an LFS?

    And it's also pretty depressing, as you see or hear about so many fish dying on a daily basis because of ignorant kids/parents/whatever else. And most of the customers don't care about the proper hygiene and rules etc for a tank, they just want to see the little fishes in there and don't really...

    Thinking of Buying a Road Bike

    I agree that buying a second-hand bike would be your best bet - that way, you can get a pretty decent one for those money. My friend had to sell her pretty decent and quite new bike, cause she had to move country, so it's not necessarily old bikes that get sold on eBay and such. Cycling is a...

    New Website

    Cool website, kinda reminds me of this magazine: http://www.behance.net/MattRumbelow/frame/993853. And you have some nice work on there too. NeilW, love that last page you've suggested, really good stuff on there, worth seeing.

    MACRO SHOTS OF TINY FISH AND SHRIMP IN NANO TANK

    Some really impressive photos there, robjarvisphotography. I'm guessing from the nickname that's a practiced skill you have anyway :) Cute fish, too. I love the tank and the flower next to it. What flower is that? My sister is a plant fan, so I'm going to recommend her to get one of these, it...

    Solar roof panels

    We've been wondering whether to get solar panels or a thermopump (seeing they are becoming increasingly popular in Germany these days) for our house in Berlin and are torn between the pros and cons of both and the opinions of users. I mean solar panels' dependence on the weather can be compared...

    Wasp and Bee Macros

    Love the pictures, pest control. This week we had loads of wasps on the balcony of the office and some of them even got to the conference room! People kept saying they like bees, but they dislike wasps and I was thinking like 'Where do they see the difference?'. I think it's more of a...

    Do you trust Bristlenose and Plecos in a planted tank?

    I guess it depends, really. I have a lot of friends who had trouble with theirs, but my best mate had no hassles at all. I remember when I was staying in Amsterdam, my housemate used to put driftwood in the tank, I believe, cause it helps their digestion or whatever and it keeps them away from...

    Jobs; What do you do?

    Best job by far there, Simon D. :) Joecoral, office monkey over here, too, no worries. Not perfect with my Journalism degree, but eh, gotta earn a living. I'm prepping myself mentally to have a glamorous job and have all my friends jealous. Soon...

    What/who are you listening too?

    I love love love Coldplay. Didn't manage to disappoint me even once. Can't wait for their new album to come out in October! I also like Landon Pigg, very romantic, and recently grown fond of Lady Antebellum, because of all the modern country sounds.
