Unfunny comedy really annoys me! - Russell Brand - Little Ms Joceline - Peter Kay - The Office - umpteen-million american teen comedy movies etc

Beastie Boys - The In Sound From Way Out

For me it's pretty much riding and taking photos, although saying that I'd call myself a food fan nowadays. Always trying new and different things in different "authentic" places. Starting to get into urbex too.

I'm a full-time bum and freelancer. I should really get a decent design job though, I need to make me some money.

Porcupine Tree - Even Less

Contrary to what everyone has said, it's not the GPU. It's worse, it's the screen. It's pretty easy to tell the difference in problems between the two, the photos you show clearly display analogue display problems, as opposed to digital display problems that the GPU would churn out. Also, as it gets worse over time this is another clear sign that this is an analogue problem rather than a GPU problem. If it was the GPU you could get it replaced, but unfortunately while you can get the screens on laptops replaced it's usually as expensive as buying a new laptop.

Men Without Hats - Safety Dance

Most of my family live in / come from Bridgend and don't want to kill themselves. Although saying that I just found out from my cousin that we do have some kind of depressive gene running in the family... How strange.

Pink Floyd - Breathe

Still up as I've been bored all evening having spent most of it chaning the colour profile on stacks of photos. Now I just CBA to go to bed.

I remember doing that years ago! I don't remember a thing about it though, sorry.

I read that too! Be careful!

Worst moment in life? Graduating. Well ok, I didn't actually go to graduation as I was sunning it up 3,500 miles away with the Red Sea lapping at my feet while sat at a bar on the beach. But the fact that I was no longer a student, it's seriously such a sodding easy part of life!

Degreaser? Or just go get a can of spray mount.

DN Forever? I thought this was released a few years ago? Shit, this seriously has been the longest game in development ever. Must be coming on nearly 10 years by now? They've even changed the engine twice... Hence it's taken so long.

Stitcher is good, or just use Photoshop... Does a fairly good job and you can fine tune it by keeping the images as layers and editting the masks between them.

Now now...

2D or 3D?

Yeah, why the hell did they get James Blunt on? Maybe it's because he's local and they couldn't get anyone else.

ARGH! 33:30 when High Contrast comes in... f**king awesome! It's all sooooooo good. :D

I always find that funny too, saw a clip from a past olympics event on TV the other day and as soon as the starting gun went there was about a million flashes in the crowd. Back to flash at gigs... I've even used wireless flashes left dotted around the stage before whilst shooting, so that I could get a shot from anywhere and guarantee it'd come out fine.

No flash at gigs? Haha. Gig photos generally look better without it, but depending on lighting (and lack of) if you've got to get the shot then you've got the get the shot...

I gave up with them a long time ago. They f**king suck, and that's putting it nicely.

www.MikeDeere.co.uk or www.MTBphotography.com Restructured all the galleries so that they make more sense, and included a load of new photos (as well as getting rid of a load!) I'm also working on a photoblog to include the site as a way of having regular updates inplace of the fairly mediocre "media" page. Good idea? Cheers!
