Sony Ericsson C902

To take pictures for the "Life Captured" project each winner received a Sony Ericsson C902 phone. The intention was for each participant to take pics of their daily life that would then be put together in a short film by Mike Figgis. The C902 seemed to be a natural choice as, a main feature of the phone is a built in 5 mega pixel camera.

The C902 is also James Bond's choice of mobile device for "Quantum of Solace". After watching the advert below I was surprised that the marketeers seemed to think that face detection was a key feature and ignored some of the other features that I thought are key to the device.





Other features include:
BestPic™
Activate BestPic™ to take nine pictures in quick succession - with one press on the camera button. Keep the ones you like, delete the rest.

Accelerometer - auto-rotate
Enjoy your pictures in portrait or landscape mode. To move between modes, simply rotate the phone and the picture follows.

Wirelessness
Forget cables - wireless is the way forward. Connect to other devices with Bluetooth™ to sync, share and send. The phone connects to the new bluetooth watch range.

Fast download speed
Enjoy the mobile Internet at broadband-like speed in your phone. Download large files and email attachments in a snap. Get Web sites and news feeds to your screen in seconds. HSDPA takes 3G a step further.

Video & image blog
You get your own personal blog site with your phone. So why not add some moving pictures to it? Shoot a video clip, and all it takes to upload it is a few clicks.

Great touchscreen interface
In camera or video mode

Hi rez camera
5 mega pixels - that's higher resolution than my first digital camera.

Flash
Built in flash that is actually useful, unlike previous versions.

Compelling ergonomics
To switch to camera mode you slide the camera out of the case.

Secret authentic alley (Lumley Court) off the Strand, London

Lumley Court WC2
UG: Charing Cross
Bus: Any to Charing Cross/Strand

Off the north side of the Strand, about 310 yds from Charing Cross ML Station, between Bedford Street and Southampton Street and just past Bull Inn Court.

When Richard Blome drew his map of this area in 1686 there were six alleys leading off the Strand between Bedford Street and Southampton Street; four of them continuing through to Maiden Lane. By 1746 this number had increased to ten, but still only four connected with Maiden Lane. From shortly after this time, periodic redevelopment of the site has forced the demise until today there are but three remaining; Exchange Court, Bull Inn Court, and Lumley Court. The first two of these courts are, in their entirety, originals as they were constructed in the 1630's, i.e. they both connected the Strand with Maiden Lane. Lumley Court, although dating from the same period, was one of the cul-de-sacs that extended northwards from the Strand for about three-quarters of its present length. Presumably the way was blocked by a building restriction enforced by the Earl of Bedford whose house was only a few yards to the east. The Court was extended at roughly the same time as Maiden Lane was widened, in about 1872.

Lumley Court is little more than a crack in the wall; it is partly covered and rather spooky - certainly not the sort of place for the claustrophobic to explore in the dead of night. Approaching the northern end of the Court there are a dozen steps raising the level to emerge via a covered exit into Maiden Lane.

A little way to the east of the Court, in Maiden Lane, is the Roman Catholic church of Corpus Christi. It too was built at the same time as the Court was extended and the consecration took place prior to a High Mass in October 1874.

Enticing entrance to Smollensky’s Bar and Grill on the Strand, London

Smollensky’s Bar & Grill is a cosmopolitan London bar & restaurant concept offering great food, superb cocktails and a party atmosphere second to none

Smollensky’s is one of the great names in grill restaurants and has been at the forefront of the London bar & restaurant scene for over 20 years. Smollensky’s Bar & Grill continues to operate with the same values that Smollensky’s flagship restaurant, Smollensky’s on the Strand, began with back in 1986; namely fantastic food, superb service & great value for money.

With a fantastic site now in Canary Wharf, as well as the flagship site on The Strand in Covent Garden, Smollensky’s Bar & Grill is one of London’s favourite bar & restaurant destinations, perfect for all occasions.

I recommend the Doubled up Smollensky’s burger made from ground rump steak (170g)
