I've had enough of the festive season for another year. Put the decorations back in the box and let's move on. The dead time between Christmas and New Year is particularly useless. Normal life is moth balled.

Went into town, far too early for work and had to walk around killing time. The Christmas market was swimming in photographers. One gentleman even decided to offer me some unsolicited advice on a) my choice of camera and b) the possible results I might achieve with the combination of my camera and my subject matter. I think you could say he scoffed at my little Ricoh. I wasn't very impressed with his input. Frankly, he was lucky to walk away without me inserting his zoom lens right up his back side.
