QR codes can be a great marketing tool, even if you don’t know what one is I’m sure you will have seen one on your travels. QR means Quick Response Code and is a two dimensional barcode which is very similar to the standard barcode used on general products. This QR code can hold a range of information which can be accessed using a QR reader, these readers are widely available (and free) for the majority of smart phones. Once you have downloaded a QR reader you simply take a photo of the code and the reader processes it. QR Readers ? Android : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?

An Introduction to Photographing the Northern/Southern Lights
Posted by admin on May 12th, 2012
The northern and southern polar lights have fascinated and hypnotised man for as long as we have graced the planet. The unearthly flame-like lights have been the inspiration of folk tale and legend for generations and since the invention of the camera a holy grail-like conquest for many enthusiast photographers. Image by Orvaratli Named after the Roman Goddess of Dawn (Aurora) and the Greek name for north wind (Boreas) the Northern lights AKA Aurora Borealis, are seen in areas that are within or surround the Arctic circle, for example: Norway, Sweden, Finland, Canada, Alaska etc. Equally the southern counterpart ‘aurora australis’ is visible from high southern latitudes in Antarctica, South America and Australasia. The mesmerizing wisps are actually solar charged particles reacting with the magnetic field as they make contact with the upper atmosphere gases.
