I've just returned from a fabulous week in London! One of the highlights was meeting Abiola Lapite who blogs at Foreign Dispatches. His mind works so fast that even the preflash can't fool him:

stupid preflash
My stupid camera should have the option to disable it, but doesn't. Argh!

Good to see you're back safely
How was your night out on the West End? Sorry I couldn't accompany you, but we old people have to get our sleep you know :-)

Wenn der Vorblitz dieser Kamera wenigsten funktionieren und etwas gegen den Rote-Augen-Effekt tun würde. Wahrscheinlich hat Abiola das geahnt und fix alternative Maßnahmen gegen den Rote-Augen-Effekt eingeleitet.

know that the preflash should serve as a red-eye-reduction-tool... *turns red*. One day I will learn how to remove red-eyes with photoshop. There are lots of tutorials on the web but none of them suggests certain colour settings. My edited eyes always look so "plastic".

@abiola: Oh.. I had a couple of good converstations that night.. ;D
