You may recall that we moved house a couple of months ago. The new place is great – a big house, great garden, nature reserve right next door. You get the picture. In fact, the only thing I can fault the place for is the terrible beer in the village’s one pub. Cossington (pop. 568) is…
A bit late with my posting due to the Holiday Weekend….Memorial Day here in the US. If I said this was the last image you would ever see of the Colorado State Capitol Building here, I’d be lying. So I won’t promise that. We revisited this location on a sunny day during Doors Open Denver.…
Well, I said they’d be some cheats, and seeing as I’m falling behind then this is going to have to do! I started this roll of film last summer and because the camera belonged to my Grandad Booth, I wanted to run family shots through it…and these things take time. But with a squeal of…
Welcome to the Roc, no, not The Rock (and now you all have Sean Connery’s voice in your head and you’re welcome), but The Roc, or Rochester, New York. While today the city is a far cry from the booming industrial and photographic centre it once was. The city still has a charm to it.…
Like some of you, one of my motivations in taking the 52 rolls challenge was to try to focus on using only one or two focal lengths to improve my photographic skills. And, of course, to combat the desire to buy more cameras or lenses. However that doesn’t mean refusing the generosity of friends of…
I have been really snowed under the last few weeks at work, working a six day week, which hasn’t left me much time to get out and take an photos. But yesterday I made my way to Brighton, just for a day out. I took my Ricoh Diacord with me and picked up a few…
ok a little change this week, still experimenting of sorts but not quite to the same extent. This week I went to The View from the Shard, a tourist attraction in London’s tallest building on the 69th & above floors. I thought it would be interesting to see how the Holga copes with the view.…
For me a rare (actually my first) mid-week posting. Just wanted you to have the results of my Twitter Survey and let you know: I’ll Be Mixin’ It Up!
I bought the Instax back for the Lomo Belair, even though I didn’t have a Belair, after seeing how people were modding it to put on the back of all kinds of cameras. @Jana had bought the Belair, and wasn’t happy with it, as were most people, and gave it to me. I decided to…
@theschlem was kind enough to lend me a pinhole camera made from a Republic of Tea can, and a 3D printed shutter he printed. It’s similar to his coffee can, but it’s made with a tea can. The pinhole is at the top of the can, not the side. This makes an anamorphic image. It…
More photographs from the Sam Weber band series – these were shot at the Gonzales Observatory. The first image is my favourite of the series. For more information about the photography, band and their new album check out the first in this series here.
I have a pair of studio strobes ( cheapy interfit 150 watt) and to be honest they very rarely see the light of day as if I need flash I use my Nikon speedlights. Just as a bit of a challenge last week I decided to dig them out and shoot a roll of expired…
