You might have noticed that there was no Friday Image or posts this week. If you were wondering why, it’s because I took a much needed holiday. But despite the holiday I still took a couple of cameras along with me to capture the landscape. Here is one from the beach near to where I... Continue Reading →
At the end of a long week, I’m back to looking through my archive of images and spotted this one. This is Thirlmere in the Lake District. It’s captured using my Fuji XT-2 and Fuji 16-50 lens.

That’s precisely the situation I find myself in with the image I’m sharing today. This is Ogden, the same location as... Continue Reading →
