Just popping in to say I'm still in Cologne and down for this poo poo until the end of July, after that my timetable gets dodgy and I might pull a New Yorker on y'all.

It's been quiet in here for a while. What's the status? Is the camera currently in the UK or in Norway?

Hello everypeoples. Sorry, camera is still with me, I got back from Spain this week after a little holiday, with the upcoming bank holiday in the U.K. I should be able to snap off a couple of rolls and get the camera on it's way to Norge by the middle of next week.

So, I went to the Post Orifice today to post off the camera to Norge. Turns out the cheapest option was by 'Global Value' and would be £42, or about $63 US. So yeah, I'm just going to research some other couriers and will have it off by this weekend. Soz Norway, I will get it to you. In the meantime, the fear about whether any of the pics will be good begins...

She went to Oslo for a weekend once in that time, there was some kind of seat sale on one of the budget airlines. Her round trip (presumably with luggage exceeding that Pelican case in size & weight) cost something less than £100, I think. Maybe this goon project is an excuse for some of you to take some vacations?

While people are reading this thread again, I haven't forgotten that I'm meant to be uploading a bunch of pictures to the tumblr, I've just been having computar trubbles on the machine where I have LR and have been too lazy/busy to sort them out. I'll get it done before the camera returns to New York, promise.

I've previously looked at shipping costs for getting stuff to Sweden from England, those are also much higher than getting the same items to Denmark. It might be cheaper overall to first send it to someone on the main continent (and Norway/Sweden/Finland don't count for that) and have it go around from there.

Ok. I got the roll of film developed today. I've tweaked all the ones I wish to upload, but I'm having a noob moment. I can't see where to upload or email the pictures to the tumblr. I've signed up, but there is no obvious link. So, some tips would be great. I am ready to embrace your derision. Meanwhile, I uploaded them to my flickr. Here's a couple below. I shot one roll of Jessops 'diamond 2 everyday' 400, expired 3 years ago. So only the good poo poo.  CAW 3 by M Walts, on Flickr WHERE I LIVE  CAW 2 by M Walts, on Flickr   CAW 6 by M Walts, on Flickr This was a clandestine stretched arm shot of some local bowls. The guy closest heard the shutter go and I legged it, feeling a bit like a pervert.  CAW 9 by M Walts, on Flickr  CAW 15 by M Walts, on Flickr CWAC  CAW 17 by M Walts, on Flickr And bonus double exposure. The things I enjoy the most are a bit of light leakage, and whatever the off colour streaks were going vertically.

Acronym-based puns and a feeling of perversion - you have fully embraced the Dorkroom! Excellent! I can email the tumblr details to you if you don't have PMs. Send me a PM if you do, or email martinbrummell AT msn DOT com I'm keeping the post-directly-to-tumblr details secret because I don't want it to fill up with pictures NOT taken by that camera. At this point that's probably moot, but I'll keep to this system until it needs to change.

It's a regret of mine. What film did you use? I get a full on Hamish Macbeth (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-TSoDsSBPc) vibe from your pictures. (This is good) Sorry if that's a bit Scottist. I have also started to upload mine now as well. The Dorkroom truly is being treated today.

Thats probably my favourite of the shots just posted, but it's pretty common game typically popular amoung the older set in Commonwealth countries and also young people who want to drink cheap booze during the Summer in Australia.

Either way expect it in 6 business days or less. Photos unloaded from card but not processed, give that a couple days for my terrible snapshots.

Question for the masses: Now that two cameras are in circulation (Around The World!!!), do we want to put the pictures from the digicam onto the same tumblr, or start another one? I have no strong feelings either way (yet)

Whichever of those two replies first gets it. nielsm is in Stockholm. Frost is in Cologne. lovely Digicam PoS (currently with pseudonordic): Uh, somebody step up for this, please.
