Single Photo: Baseball

Being English I never played baseball, in fact I tried my best not to play anything at all most of the time, sports wasn’t and still isn’t my thing. When I couldn’t get out of it, the closest I ever got to baseball was “rounders”. I have no idea what the similarities or differences areContinue reading “Single Photo: Baseball”

Phoenix II

Harman have released another colour film. Between version I & II there was a redscale effort, but frankly, who’s interested in that? Obviously they had some version I to shift! Version II however seems to be a good step forward. Let me start by saying that I support Harman’s attempt at a colour film. It’sContinue reading “Phoenix II”

Wings at “Wings and Wheels”

On the “Wings” side of things – all the planes were small and light, it’s that type of show. The sort of planes that you or I may own and fly if we could. During the course of the day many flew in and out – most taxied to the display field, at 1pm itContinue reading “Wings at “Wings and Wheels””

The Flower

I’d venture a guess that we’ve all purchased a bunch of flowers, and at some point between the shop and getting them in a vase broken one off. I did just that the other week, it was such a lovely bloom I couldn’t bring myself to just dump it, so I popped it in aContinue reading “The Flower”

Knowlton Church

A couple of day’s ago I wrote about the Church of Wolfrida, that sits within the Parish of Knowlton. Knowlton Church is not only Norman and ruined, but stands within a henge. The henge is believed to date between 3000 and 2000 BCE, and there are several “barrows” very close by. These days sadly thereContinue reading “Knowlton Church”

Hood Ornaments

In this small selection of images made at the “Wings and Wheels” event, I concentrate on hood ornaments. All of these images were made with the Canon EOS 30, the 40mm STM lens and on Delta 100. I developed the film in Crawley’s FX55.

Church of St. Wolfrida

In 961 a Benedictine Abbey was founded in the little Dorset village of Horton. Wolfrida was the first abbess. I’ve read two versions of the churches history – one says that in 1539 during the dissolution of the monasteries the priory church became the parish church. Another version of it’s history (that I think isContinue reading “Church of St. Wolfrida”

Wings & Wheels 2025

This weekend just gone I went to this years “Wings and Wheels” show. I remember going to an early one, maybe the 2nd or 3rd, and I’m amazed to find out that this year, 2025, is the 25th! It takes place at Henstridge Airfield, which in itself is interesting. Although it seems like it’s atContinue reading “Wings & Wheels 2025”

Canon EOS 20D

I don’t often write about digital cameras here, that is because my main interest is film photography. There are some exceptions, and the Canon 20D is one of them. Why? Well because I had one, it was my first digital SLR, and it made an impact. Over the course of three trips, I went fromContinue reading “Canon EOS 20D”

4K and all that

For years I lugged around a Sony DSR-390 (left), it was a terrific beast. With the “gain” up, it could see better in the dark than I could! In fact I used it’s “eyes” to get back to my car more than once! It had a Canon lens on the front that was superb, andContinue reading “4K and all that”
