You can lightly hold over the shoot button on the D5100. Should make it focus when in AF mode, and it'll double beep when done. If you just aim your camera and do that in the conditions, the camera should be prepared for any photo you take shortly after...

My father has a tattoo which is basically of me, the meaning of it being that no matter where he is, my presence will always be with him.
Now, I sent this page a message and they said that my dad will go to hell for having this tattoo.
It has pissed me off and has made me quite upset.

The word "bronies" has reminded me of the word "brownies", which has reminded me that I'm hungry and I don't have any brownies right now.

Seriously some especially in America are really passionate about their beliefs and try and force it upon people who doesn't share their beliefs.Is it any wonder people want nothing to do with Religion with Clowns like that around
It seems like it's going to be a case where you can type Christians Against [INSERT SUBJECT] into Google and you will find groups like this. Just did a quick Google search and Christians are against the band Slipknot and dinosaurs.

The last 3 events I've been to I've had four or so fellow enthusiasts following me around like sheep for the full do when I've made it perfectly clear I don't want them following me as I'm doing my own thing.

On the same token, just because we have a few scumbags in the UK, it doesn't mean everyone should give the UK a sideways step.

There's more than enough room for everyone, and thankfully there's no requirement to socialise with people you don't want to.
I tend to go to as much events as I can, but I try and keep myself to myself on the most part.
You'd be surprised how much more you get to do and see when you're out by yourself!

Though I do talk to people if I see them, I am not ignorant, and wouldn't ignore people who talk to me unlike some I have met in the past(nobody off here btw, everyone I have seen from NEB has always been happy to talk to me)

I'd say going out on your own is still probably the best way especially if you are after photos as your own photo goals my be different to someone else's. I do like going on my own outings as I can go where I want and I can get what I want to eat and when I want to eat it and sometimes you have to accommodate times for other people to meet their connections and such.
That said after being at some of the rallies this year and on a few outings I wouldn't mind the odd outing with some of the members of this forum [emoji2]
