This picture, a few months old, (and along with the rat from today, see posting below) illustrates what a boon compact, always-with-you cameras can be. Something I've not often exploited in my life, but I'm starting.
These signs by the way are not a joke or a mistake. They were what the city deemed necessary to inform the public of roadworks. Sign of the times? Like excessive labeling, over-communicating in lieu of good communication?
"over-communicating in lieu of good communication?"
ReplyDeleteCertainly.
Are you sure it wasn't an open air museum for road signs / roadworks section ?
Another anecdote which fits into this issue:
At the check-out of a supermarket I wanted to pay by direct debit.
I was asked to put my signature underneath a block of some 10 centimeters of small print with detailed information about the supermarket's business rules.
Had I read through all of it the already long queue would have extended even more, impatient customers stamping their feet.
As to an "always everywhere" camera: Minox still produce their tiny spy camera (I also have one), I wonder when they will come out with a digital version.
Have a good start into the new week.

You can get credit card sized digicams, but they compromise on usability and quality.
ReplyDeleteBut cameras like the Fuji F10 and the new Nikon P series (with image stabilization!) fit in a pocket, and they take full quality pictures. I print them up to 30x40 centimeters in perfect quality.
