Re: " ... and always take me there, the place I love." (Ferr

Good ones, Birma and Zeb. : ) Zeb, nice urban shots. I like the toad story as well. Very fitting resemblence and analogy. The second one of yours speeding away reminds me of the contemporary power boats that the Swedish pilots are also very good at driving. Thanks a lot Yildiz! A cold day with a bi...

Re: Birds 2012

Well, I'm not that much of a bird shooter but this Easter I really got me a treat. I have never before experienced something like this in the wild, to be able to see such a beautiful bird up close from only a few meters distance :D Kudos to all of you who spend hours in forests and around lakes to g...

Re: SQL errors

I have had the same problem for a while.

It is probably because the hosting provider has several customers running in he same MySQL-instance and the total number of connections aren't many enough to serve all customers at peak time.

Re: Gasoline prices getting you down? :-)

Gasoline price in Sweden is about $2.23 per liter now, I think that equals about $8.46 per gallon.
We have very high taxes on gasoline here, close to 60%.

What's the current price in the states?

A big welcome from me as well! :-) Is this the "old" Tammy 70-300 you bought or the recent USD-version?

Re: 41 MP camera...

Here's a 32MB download (.zip) with three full rez images, I think it looks pretty good - but this is of course in broad daylight.

Re: A700 vs A900 vs A77 autofocus

I have the A700 too, and two youngsters of the age two and five. Definitely sound to me like there might be a problem with your camera. I don't have any really expensive glass though (see my sig). I've only had the A700 for about 8 months though so someone else with a 700 might wanna fill in their e...

Re: " ... and always take me there, the place I love." (Ferr

Nice deep blue water. Why is it called "the toad" ? In fact, the water is very dark - but the blue sky is reflecting itself nicely. Thanks :) Ok, maybe it won't make sense translated but I'll give it a try: The history says that the founders (around 1939) bought a "koster-boat" ...

What a nice thread :D Many very beautiful shots! Especially like the "Summer Queen" one, looks like a serene place :) Here's a photo of Gothenburg's famous tourist ferry "Paddan" (the toad): https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-iR0_fC_P704/TMFdE0-AN-I/AAAAAAAAilA/K-gziDxHtE8/s800/P...
