Here are some of my best HDR photos from my travels. HDR is a technique of taking a photo over multiple exposures (or extracting them from a RAW file) then recombining them in a program such as Photomatix. By doing this you can bring out the detail from the multiple exposures creating a powerful image.
My first is of St Chads Church in Shrewsbury.
I really like how the HDR technique has brough out the detail in the stone work.

This next one again is from Betws Y Coed.
All of my HDR photos can be found on Flickr.

At the other end are the very expensive providers that I don't want to fork out for. Then there are the providers that throttle traffic at certain times to one degree or another.
Somewhere in the middle fell the provider I decided to go with - Plus net, for

With all the hype over the new 3G iPhone as announced by Apple last week that we have a new website launching today dedicated to videos of the iPhone.
The site is constantly updated with the latest videos of iPhones, iPhone tutorials, iPhone unlocking and iPhone Adverts.
In its first 24 hours available, EIGHT people -- six Americans and two from Europe -- bought "I Am Rich," a seemingly useless iPhone app that has since been removed from the App Store, for a penny under one grand. I am dead serious.
