I popped out for a quick lunchtime walk, the first image I made was of a Christmas Wreath on a door so then I got sort of locked on and made more! All of these were made within about 10 minutes of each other! Chatter: Canon 5D with 50mm f1.4

Single Shot… Yellow Rope
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 Below is from my recently failed out-of-date roll of Kodak Colour Plus that reminds me of a quote I remember but can’t remember who said it or where I read it!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”
