Missing Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik

If you've never been, go explore it. In the summer. Preferably during the street festival. Today's warm weather made me realise I miss the Med (or the Adriatic, in this case). I had to dig out some old pictures. If I get even more sentimental, I'll let you know.

i *wep* for you (whatever that means)

From YouTube comments under the recent Lady GaGa/Beyonce video (which, unlike two days ago, is now available only if you prove you're over 18; you should perhaps also prove you can write):

Here's one for Photoshop Disasters

Look at the proportions on this poster, particularly Sandra Bullock's legs.

Are they blind or is there something wrong with my eyes?!

Campania

Yesterday's great weather made me explore London with my 50mm lens for the first time in a while.

And while I'm working on a bigger post for my 'proper' blog (www.dzierza.com) on why everyone should invest in a 50mm prime lens, feel free to come to your own conclusions based on the pictures below.

Oh, and Campania (in Columbia Road in London), is a fab place for some great Italian sausage, pancetta and eggs on toasted ciabatta. And never ask for a large cappucino there...

Conversation

"Conversation is a fascinating and frank look at the hidden judgments we habitually make about others based on their faces. In this cleverly composed and edited short doc, filmmakers Lenka Clayton and James Price explore the semiotics of body language."
