Is anyone else a fan of HDR photograph? For those that don't know, HRD or High Dynamic Range photography is the technique of allowing greater range between the darkest and lightest areas of an image.

Tommy Sheridan, former MP and leader of the Scottish Socialist Party, has been jailed for 3 years after being convicted of perjury. STORY HERE.
