Apparently, I am reserved builder.

I use the Flickr Quick Comment Tool

I am the admin of:
Stitched but no panoramas - for your program stitched pics that are not panoramas.
Västkusten - pics from the Swedish west coast (Västkusten).
A4 - any pic with at least one A4 paper on it.
Scale figures - for pics that use humans as figures to give the sense of the real size an real life object.

Here is large mosaic with my pic (not my icon!). Can you find med? Hint: I am somewhere in the light green leafs to the right of the tiger. I am a line of ppl with black sweaters or turtlenecks. Did you find me?

My pics on Flickr Explore.

My cameras:
- Sometimes I post scanned printed pics taken by Chinon CM4s with 35-70 original zoom with built-in macro. It has been seen since the light meter decided to fade out.
- All other pics are taken with a HP PhotoSmart 935, 5.3MP (2608*1952 pixels) and 3X optical zoom. It is a point -and-snap camera. As such not much chance of controlling the outcome of the picture. Sometimes it keeps on thinking about the pic for several minutes after the pic is taken (and shown on the LCD-display). Even when the batteries are removed this keeps on for 15-30 seconds. Odd, isn't it?. Quite heavy for such a small camera. The on-off button was flawed when I bought the camera so I had to remove a small piece before it could slide properly. It sucks battery like crazy, at least with the LCD-display on. The batteries that camera with the camera ran dry in no time flat. Now I have 2500mAH batteries that can survive a whole day (ca 100 pics incl some with flash, although not with LCD on all the time) and still have some juice left for the next day.
- A while ago my HP went myopic. All pics are fuzzy! So it will take a while until I get a new camera (I guess fixing this one will cost the same as buying a new one...).
- I now own a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7. Have not yet taken it out on a snapping frenzy, but we will see ...
