Did any UK peoples watch the first programme on TV ? Very eye opening insights - they take 3 professional photographers and give them a digital camera and they have to take 3 pics: one industrial, one urban, one landscape. The cameras they give are: to one photographer: a Nikon D2X, to another a Canon compact S70, to another a mobile phone camera. Now that is a challenge ! I think it was a bit cruel to give Joe Cornish the mobile phone the poor guy works almost exclusively in large format view cameras but he produced some amazing images even after he had 'accidentally' dropped the ****** thing off a pier onto the beach 30ft below :D. I hope they put the pics up on the web site for you all to see - for those in UK the exhibition at Tate Britain seems a must, for me definite.And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies
live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to
sea in a Sieve.
