Made whilst out on a photo walk around Poole. I’ve photographed this more than once before! Below is from my recently failed out-of-date roll of Kodak Colour Plus that reminds me of a quote I remember but can’t remember who said it or where I read it! “Digital was the coming of age of colourContinue reading “Single Shot… Yellow Rope”

We’ve had snow!!!
A week ago I was out in glorious sunshine making images of the autumn colours. This week we have snow, and a reasonable amount too! I have always lived on the south coast of the UK, and whilst we get plenty of rain and wind, very little snow. I remember we had enough for meContinue reading “We’ve had snow!!!”
Autumn Colour
A couple weeks back while the autumnal colours were at their height, a free half hour lunchbreak coincided with a crisp sunny bright day. I happened to have one of my digital cameras with me – so I took a walk. Chatter: Canon EOS 5D with Canon 50mm f1.4
Not Quite Forgotten
A “single photo” type post. I’ve walked past this house before in the early morning and noticed they still have milk delivered in the traditional way from my youth! Yes, a milkman delivering milk in milk bottles! It still exists – this image was made last week! This particular morning I happened to have myContinue reading “Not Quite Forgotten”
Gone to the beach!
About 30 years ago my parents and I rented a holiday home for a week, in a small town called Shaldon, down on the south coast of Devon. This looks over a wide harbour, the other side of which, lies the town on Teignmouth. I’ve been here several times, and always liked the place. AtContinue reading “Gone to the beach!”
Bolivia: The end of film…
… for a short while! I’ll explain. Back in 2005 I found myself in Bolivia, as you do! I’ll be honest and say that I was a little apprehensive I’d heard stories, drug cartels, violence, on the US dangerous to visit list etc. I found the people wonderful, saw no demonstrations, fights or violence, inContinue reading “Bolivia: The end of film…”
Scotland
Almost exactly 15 years ago I went to Scotland with a good friend. We went to a Buddhist retreat on the shores of Loch Voil. Above is the view from Creag An Tuirc. It was interesting experience, one that mostly I enjoyed very much. On the journey up we stopped at Kendal in the LakeContinue reading “Scotland”
Single Photo: Kings Life Guard
A member of the Kings Life Guard, at Horse Guards Parade in London. I made this image with my Canon 5D MkII, I can tell from the meta data that I chose to use 400 ISO, f5.6 at 50th second. I can also tell you that the image was made at 2:42pm (but who cares!).Continue reading “Single Photo: Kings Life Guard”
Breakfast at Aroma
The building that once housed the local Witherspoons, (Budget Pub/Food, something like Denny’s with a pub attached!) is now one of a small chain called Aroma. It’s been completely revamped and recently re-opened it’s doors. I went and had a traditional English breakfast a few days ago – and very good it was too! InContinue reading “Breakfast at Aroma”
Lydford Gorge: Colour
A couple of posts ago I wrote about Lydford Gorge and how it’s been split in two by the raging waters of the winter. This post is “the other end” which was once the main start point for a walk through the gorge. A new bridge (above) now spans the river Lyd, to take walkersContinue reading “Lydford Gorge: Colour”
