Friday Image No.147 August 18, 2017
The heather is out. I captured this last Sunday in the Peak District using the Fuji X-T2. It’s processed in Lightroom using the Provia colour profile (set under Camera Calibration in the Develop tab). As usual, it didn’t take more than a couple of tweaks to finish the image. That’s what I love about the... Continue Reading →
Sony – Setting the Record Straight August 15, 2017
Regular readers of this blog will recognise that I haven’t always been complimentary about Sony and their customer service. Please don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t like Sony, it’s that I’ve always had problems with their products and service. Despite this, my Sony RX 10 and Sony A7R excellent cameras. The Sony...

Friday Image No.146 August 11, 2017
For this week’s Friday Image, I want to share a shot from a recent trip to Formby. If you want to see more of the trip I posted the video on You Tube yesterday. When I visit Formby I usually seem to come away with some shots I like. This time though things seemed different.... Continue Reading →
And the Next Book is… August 7, 2017
On Friday, I shared a fairly traditional image of the Elizabeth Tower in London. Some people also know this as Big Ben, although Big Ben is the bell inside the clock-tower. Then over the weekend I was working on my next book (“Mastering Photoshop Masks”) and decided to use the image for one of the... Continue Reading →
Friday Image No.145 August 4, 2017
Last weekend I was an out and out tourist. I visited London with my wife and we spend 4 days doing the tourist attractions including Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament and had an amazing afternoon tea at the Corinthia Hotel. We also visited friends that we don’t see often enough. It now seems strange... Continue Reading →
Upgrading Exposure August 1, 2017
I have finally taken the plunge and upgraded my copy of Exposure from Alien Skin. This is a great all-purpose piece of editing software which I tend to use as a plug in to Photoshop. What I really like are the film simulations. I already owned Exposure and was resisting the temptation to upgrade. What... Continue Reading →
Friday Image No.144 July 28, 2017
I captured this image last weekend in the Peak District. The day had started with fog then turned to sun and then finally rain. There didn’t seem to be much point shooting so we wandered up to Stanage Edge. Despite visiting the area many times, I have never been to Stanage Edge. I’m now certain... Continue Reading →
Returning to the 18-135 Lens July 26, 2017
When I purchased my first Fuji camera (an XT1 which has since been sold), I bought a used 18-135 Fuji lens to accompany it. At the time, I was apprehensive because a lot of the lens reviews said the lens was poor and not of the usual Fuji quality. Despite this I pushed ahead and... Continue Reading →
Friday Image No.143 July 21, 2017
It’s been said that a picture paints a thousand words. Sometimes though I think it’s enough not to say anything. Just empty your mind and let it drift on a sea of nothing and marvel at the expanse before you. That’s enough rambling for a Friday evening. The weeks work is over and I can... Continue Reading →
Camera Colour Profiles July 19, 2017
Over the past few months, I’ve been contacted with increasing regularity by people looking for Camera Colour Profiles. In case you’re not familiar, these are the profiles that allow Lightroom to convert RAW files into colour images with accurate colour. Although Lightroom comes with a default colour profile (Adobe Standard), this can be improved upon.... Con […]
