I’m on the lookout for an entry-level digital SLR. Yesterday I asked for your recommendations on Twitter, and here are a few of your most popular choices (thanks very much, by the way).

As promised, here are a few select photographs I took whilst on my recent holiday in India.
India is a fascinating country, and the people were very friendly. I’d love to return in the future to see more and meet some fellow blog authors.

In this post I showcase a number of creative ways to display the English alphabet. Some fascinating works of art.
