With the colour scheme, I've sort of postponed it for a few days, a photo comp closes in a few days and I have to sort through my photos to find the ones to print. Will get back to you though when I fix something up. As a matter of fact, I might post about it on my blog.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>DavidAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10926083515508779822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051370101596909325.post-16852322372309014562008-04-10T20:47:00.000+10:002008-04-10T20:47:00.000+10:00Hi JJ,Isn't it interesting how different parts of ...Hi JJ,<BR/><BR/>Isn't it interesting how different parts of the world have different skies? At one stage I thought the sunrise would be the same all over the world, until I started seeing other peoples sunrises on their blogs. It's great to be able to share these experiences with other people through the blogosphere.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>DavidAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10926083515508779822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051370101596909325.post-47405098517791213272008-04-09T04:21:00.000+10:002008-04-09T04:21:00.000+10:00David, lol, you liked it so much (your sky watch p...David, lol, you liked it so much (your sky watch photo), that it becamed your icon - cute.

Most people prefer compact cameras, but I find an SLR is *much* easier to use when you want manual settings - instead of wading through menus, you can just spin a knob or flick a switch.<BR/><BR/>My label cloud is essentially the technorati one. I think I actually got it from another site though, I'll try to look up that site and the instructions for you if you want.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>DavidAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10926083515508779822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051370101596909325.post-59293190725410956872008-04-07T12:02:00.000+10:002008-04-07T12:02:00.000+10:00Hi andree,Thanks for visiting.
