My desk smells of coffee
My leg smells of coffee
My bin smells of coffee
The floor is damp
My mouse drips

Ooh, the kids have just come round and said the cables are down – time to grab a camera and go and have a look
Update: It wasn’t the hardest problem in the world to spot…
I had been wondering why I don’t seem to be drawn to photography magazines very much – I had assumed that sites like Flickr had quenched my desire to look at other people’s images, and unless I had a large amount of spare money, equipment reviews tend to loose their appeal after a while.

Do Sensors “Outresolve” Lenses?: http://luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/resolution.shtml

Lots. In other words it’s a great read for an Engineer with some really interesting figures and maths that I’m going to have to go back and re-read a couple of times, and it may actually influence future lens and camera buying decisions.
But it tells you nothing about how to take a great portrait.
