Please take a look and let me know what you guys think?

I like it's clean look. I see you went with green... being from Boston and all?

You tempt me with a photo of a hot model on your blog, and then when I click on it, it doesn't enlarge.

Nice site, Tim. I like it better than your Blogspot site. Maybe instead of redirecting the blog link on your new site to the Blogspot blog, you should do the opposite and direct the Blogspot URL back to your new site.

thanks Mark. I'm def keeping timothyluc.com but I feel the blog section of my website needs some updating

So... I'm going to see Jim Gaffigan live at Playhouse Square, and I got some awesome tickets (1st row, and just off-center). I really wish I could bring my 5D3 and shoot with a lens in silent mode, with no flash. I really hate that they don't allow photography though, because I'm sure I could get some awesome shots.

We visited the Caves of the dragon or the Cuevas del Drach when in Majorca last week and it was killing me that I couldn't get the camera out to take some shots. The place is absolutely amazing!. They had guides that were really keen and were pouncing on anyone who took a shot.

Chewy734 · 05-02-2012, 04:11 PM

they wouldn't let you take a shot without flash either?

Most places find it difficult to allow non-flash photography and deny those who can't figure out how to turn off their flash, so they just prohibit all photography. Or else it's a case of wanting to sell the images themselves. Like Dave said about the Eye in London, they don't allow tripods because you could produce professional level night shots and make a buck that they get no part of.

I can't sneak in a 5D3 with a lens under my shirt, Tim.

Plus, how do you get through security without it being noticed?

The1 · 05-02-2012, 08:21 PM

MaximusJ · 05-02-2012, 10:11 PM

I would say $500.

I might be interested.

you would be easy to deal with being in Canada

But 500 is a bit on the low side

MaximusJ · 05-02-2012, 10:14 PM

Ok ill meet you halfway.

sorry, I think I misread that, did you say 1525?

Weebl · 05-02-2012, 10:41 PM

That's last years price for a very used one. You should be able to trade for a new T3i straight up.
