Well done Hamish!
Looks a nice place & I'm sure I'll pop over from time to time, not that I know much about photography. I've just got a little point n squirt so maybe a place to pick up a few tips etc
Hope it's a success mate!
Cheers, alfie.

Great Hamish
Looks like you have done a grand job. No doubt I'll gravitate towards the site at some point. I used to fancy myself with my Olympus OM1/10 and used to develop and print in B&W. These days it is find a subject (hardest part) then just point and shoot and digital photography does the rest!
Look forward to future visits - Well done.

I'm not sure it'd be wise, my little spankee monkee, given some of the people who've recently joined
Don't wanna make things awkward for certain parties there, and least of all Hamish.
See? I'm such a considerate big bastard!

...that, and the fact you've only got a tiny one. Still, it's not the size that matters, it's what you do with it that counts - some great photos taken on tiny compact cameras.
Joking aside, all points fair, and hopefully RPF will take off big stylee.

Oi, Matilda, don't divulge the secrets of last night's webcam session!!...that, and the fact you've only got a tiny one.
Aye, happiniess is a packing a wee 'point and shooter'.....Still, it's not the size that matters, it's what you do with it that counts - some great photos taken on tiny compact cameras.
We'll certainly be doing all we can to make that happen. I'm having a think about how AOS could best help achieve that aimJoking aside, all points fair, and hopefully RPF will take off big stylee.
