The only green thing in this movie should be Kermit!

I am sorry to say this but there are some fucking retard people in America!

I thought that calling the Muppets "Communist" was a stupid thing but just watch the 2nd part of the video below and see it for yourself

Priceless Smiles

Today we got a gift from a Swedish friend in New York.

It was an advent calendar by Jacquie Lawson and it is alot of fun making your own digital tree and watching little snippets of fun Christmas themed clips.

This is a clip from last years to give you an idea

If you would like to see more or get one for a loved one (and if they love Christmas then there going to LOVE THIS). Check out this LINK.

Happy Street EP Launch plus Video

Some of you might remember a while back that I help shoot a music video. I have talked about it a few times and its also where I 1st got to play with my nice new shiny camera (the Canon 7D).

My friend who's lived her whole life on happy street realised the video and is now on YouTube! but as I have been ill the last few days I have not posted it yet.

Well now is the time and I am posting the Video below, I will not say much about the shooting as I wanna leave some of the magic intact but if you enjoy the music then you might want to check out her page (HappyStreet MySpace)

Oh and one last thing, Klara Kjellén is hosting her EP Leanch on the 7th Dec in Camden that your more then out come to come by and check her old live (facebook LINK)

If you like the track and want a copy all to yourself her EP is on iTunes on this LINK.

Spits (20111130) PLUS 7D

Today was Tuesday... And you know what happens on Tuesday SPITS!

Today was a nice night, It was nothing mind blowing but I had something new to play with and to make it even better,

A Friend lent me his Speed-Light the 580EXii (AMAZING FLASH!) and with it I can take some of the images that I really love shooting.

Here are some sample images but there are more on the site, check out this LINK.

A Video I wish to share

This is a funny blog to post but tonight I have been thinking and feeling very much that there is something very wrong with the world. I have my eyes open and am awake to see what it happening around me. The promises made and then forgotten, The hope of my childhood was that every one was equal no matter of colour, sex or class.

There are things happening in the world that I think are so impotent and then I flick on the news and not a peep of info about it. With Russia trying to pass an anti-gay bill to America trying to copyright the web. The 1st step to suffering is fear, The 1st sign is to take the freedoms away!

I have seen the ways in witch things have changed, In my life time and with everything that has happened to me. Something needs to change before we end up going backwards instead of forwards. Riots, Protests and the stamp out of free speech and this is all within 3 months!

Thank you to the people that have talked to me, Opened my ears and my eyes to the world that THEY wish stay hidden to everyone! Wake up and see it for yourself before we cant stand up any more. Stop watching the x factor and being part of the dumber fife masses, take an interest in what's happening in the world, we live in a world with unlimited information. We have no reason to not be aware and no excuse not to know.

Thank You:

Ylva, Karl, Emma, Eric, Lewis and Ian and to the men that have guided me through my life to do the right thing and not just the easy one, John Bruce and Bill

SOPA!

For the people that dont know, Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) is bill that might be put through in the US to censer the internet on the right of IP protection. To find out the full details check out this LINK.

Now I only just herd about this and as Jim said above,

This will turn the US into metal gear solid 2. If this law is passed then almost anyone with a site that deals in reviews or blogs that use freedom of speech are going to be raped up the ass by SOPA!

THIS IS A BAD IDEA!!
as Fluff said - "This makes the US into China!"

The Canon 7D!

Well I have had it for about 3 days and I am loving it.

Now I have not really been out with it yet but as I have been working I have been very busy and slowly getting used to the set up. As I am going from a different brand its going to take a little while to get my hands and head around it but with only 3 days I have got most of it down.

The Good!

This camera is FAST! I mean really fast, the focus is amzing and quick but sometimes it does like to focus on something other then what I want (my fault as I need to get used to the AF areas)

The ISO performace is amazing and i have been shooting at 6400 without to much noise at all but at 3200 its almost noise free!

8FPS = Shooting 8 frames per Second is just mind blowing, Its like Kia said on one of the DigetalRev vids "This is the essence of man"

The Bad!
This comes down to the lens more but with the battery grip and the 24-70 f2.8 this set up weight is over 3/4KG (Will check when I get my scales fixed)

The Lens does not have IS but having an 2.8 max app its kinda muted as a bad thing.

Now I will be having a shoot soon and I am looking forward to seeing just what I will get. There are still a few things I need to get before I can really let lose on my style of photography like a Canon Speedlight (SB580 exII) and a few other little bits.

Now I will post some sample images that I have got so far, There nothing great and they will get much better after a week or so with the camera. Check my site for details or I will post a link later

The Turing test?

Tonight I am watching a doc on Alan Turing.

For the people that don.t know who he is do me a faver - Look at your computer screen, your mobile phone, your TV and your lights above your head.

Now thanks Alan Turing for all of it!

This is the man that came up with the idea of the modern computer, all computers in fact.

The idea of zeros and ones comes from this man, Cracked the Enigma machine code as well as being one of the smartest people at Bletchley Park During world war 2

Any ways back to the point as I could go on about him for a long time as he is a GOD to anyone who is remotely into tech or computers... Now the Turing Test, Have a look at this image...

The idea of this test is to have an AI so good that it can fool a judge to thinking that the computer is a human. Now I love this idea and the fact he was coming out with this idea before modern computers were even invented. Now this is still being tried today and with the new iPhone coming out (with Siri) I think we are slowly getting to the point of solving the Turing Test.

Guys were living it the biggest jump in technolorg. Lets help it along and lets keep this going without the fears or worry's from movie's and ignorer people.

Chains for Change?

Today I watched a vid from playpoi and saw something that I really liked the look of...

Yes the heads are really nice and maybe I will get a set one day, But what I really liked the look of was the Chains.
Now I found them on HOP (HomeOfPoi.com) and at only £32 I dont think they are to bad... dubble swivels and single loop and thats great for me as I love my orbital (LINK)

Some good num nums

Tonight fluff made me some really nice soup and a side of cheese on toast on olive bread.

Thanks babe, it's really hit the spot!
