Ah, ok, so it's Copenhagen, DK you're talking about. I thought Christiania was the old name for one of the OTHER Scandinavian capitals, possibly Oslo.

You're right Abstract, Christiania was the old name for Oslo from 1624 - 1877. I am however talking about the Free State of Christiania, Copenhagen, Denmark.

Clix, great picture. Even better when you described how you made it. Slinkies are great.

@BakedBeans; I want a little boy too, so that I can teach him about the delights of Thomas the tank engine & the fat controller.:) nice pic!
 
Going on holiday to the south of France for five days. Hopefully I will come back with some new material! So I am posting a pic that I think suits my mood.:) It was taken on a recent trip to Sylt.

^^That photo is very very soft. Is that because of the f/1.6 aperture setting leaving you a very small part of the flower in focus, or is it because you handheld it, or some editing?

Either way, I like it. :)

I don't think even I could make a photo look that soft at 1/1000 sec!

Its the lens, combined with teh 1.6 aperture.

Its one of the longer focal length ones for more working distance and more clarity. I convert these lenses to nikon mount now.

Plane coming out of Reagan National..if you look closely enough, you can see the individual stroble flashes from the wings and underbelly. :) I was really pleased with the shot.
