Quote from the article [ Some higher energy bulbs will be gone by January 2009, and all incandescent lights will be off by 2011.

The agreement is voluntary, but other countries have announced legal bans, including Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and the US.

Well at least UK based photogs that want to have have a go have a couple of years to perfect the shot.

Being the WORLD Photography Forum I did not realise this is a shot that some could not attempt.

Having broken flourecent tubes before, I do not fancy trying the ' smash a bulb ' with a low energy job. I guess they contain the same powdery stuff.
