Seaworld

Just got back from San Diego for a boring conference about SD memory cards - those fiddly little cards that you use in your phone to store photos, video and toonz. Not much exciting to report there. To summarise - If you want to store a whole bunch of stuff then use a small thin block of plastic jammed into the side of a phone.

But I was stuck in San Diego for the following day, so we went to SeaWorld! This is Shamu...

Shamu likes to splash - spraying the first 14 rows of the stadium with water at regular intervals. This turned out to be a bit dangerous for those of us with cameras as it is not a light spray - those tails give a good soaking.

It turns out that Shamu isn't just one Killer Whale - it is a generic title for all the Orcas at Seaworld. Surely that must be confusing for the poor whale.

Snow in April

It's snowing!

This time last year we were having a heatwave.
This year the plants gave up on the winter freeze, and have decided to bloom. Poor daffodils... all confused.

Steve passed his MBA

Woohoo!

The London Photography Meetup Group

Went along to the London Photography Meetup Group yesterday. Once a month they meet at a small pub in Soho for a social chat. Members range from professional to people who are 'in between cameras.' There was a little bit of Canon/Nikon banter, but generally a nice bunch of people.

And, in addition to the drinking, they even get together occasionally for a bit of photography and technical workshops.

Let's see how this goes...
