    Tatoos or not tatoos

    Is this really a tatoo? It uses no ink, it uses no needles, it is not permanent, but you cannot wash it. It’s a sun tan drawn using a special shirt to make a nice pattern.

  • New year, new style

    As you can see, I enter the new year with a small variation of the style design of Roumazeilles.net. Out are the light reflections on the front of a primary lens (I’m sure that you did recognize this in the circular figure that was ilustrating the top left of this site before, didn’t you?) Here…

  • Brit women prefer Internet to sex

    I always thought that our neighbours of the United Kingdom could be stranger than most aliens (not people from other countries, but beings from outer space, mind you).

    Sony Alpha 200, to replace ageing Alpha 100

    During quite some time people have been speaking of Sony Alpha 200 as the name of the new high-level prosumer digital SLR camera. But when Sony presented it, the name was Sony Alpha 700. We should have been listening a little more to the rumour. The Alpha 200 name was actually real, but it was…
