Yes. I've just bought a pocket tripod. I like to carry my compact camera when I walk the streets, in case I see something interesting. For instance, two years ago, I was crossing a footbridge over an avenue in Madrid, and suddenly I thought: "this could be a good night-skyline photo". So I leaned the camera on the banister and...

From 0 to 9, each number corresponds to a color. Rectangular panels correspond to whole numbers, and square panels to decimal numbers. Grey panels mark the beginning of a new series, which represents a statistic fact. For instance, at the following example the number of medical personnel in 2004 is 524,759:

my favourite photo I've taken in a long time. It's of a church near my house. I lost the original photo but I like this edited version more.

^^ Wow Zaqarbal, that's a fascinating building!

I went to Maastricht with a friend (Bart) today.
We expected more snow, but apart from that it was a very nice afternoon.
Took loads of pictures.

Thanks :)
A lot of people seem to like this one. I'd say it has some flaws, but then I'm overly critical :D
