The next trips to the area will be in late September and early October when they reposition to boat from Koh Tao to Phuket. There will be one trip that departs from Samui and ends at Songkhla and two trips (if enough people sign up) that depart from and return to Songkhla.

Love the site Randy, what setup are you using? I have a 50mm F1.8 but I find it a little 'too close' for every day use - brilliant for bokeh though!

Most photo viewers can display a image file's EXIF info. There are browser add-ons which make the same accessible from the right click context menu.

His camera model name contains '100'. Have fun finding the rest.

Thanks for the comments... :D

I use a Fuji X100 which has a fixed 28mm lens (actually 35mm when matched with it's sensor) It can't be changed so you have to get real close which makes street photography a challenge.

Picture quality is excellent though and it's nice and small for carrying around.

My trusty D70s finally gave up the ghost so it is time to upgrade. Went and got myself one of these babies: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikon-d5200 (Big Camera, Market Village).

This camera has more settings than the space shuttle, had a little play in the yard today and fired these off using the macro settings ...

Amazed at the difference in clarity and colour, DLSR technology has advanced a lot in 8 years.
