Making Mirrorless Work
This week, I headed over to Blackpool and met up with a friend for some photography. The weather looked very promising. I love the idea of photographing old seaside towns out of season, so this looked ideal. We met up around midday and grabbed some fish and chips for lunch (when we found a chippy … Continue reading Photographing Blackpool
This week, the weather has turned decidedly wintery, and I headed up onto the moors for some sunset photography. There was some truly spectacular colour, but I didn’t capture anything more than what I consider to be snapshots. Stand Edge Winter sunset, Saddleworth I’ve therefore continued to spend time editing some of the many images … Continue reading More Landscape Photography In the Peak District
Earlier in the week, I headed to the Peak District for some landscape photography. I love this time of year for photographing the landscape; at least I do when it isn’t raining. But if it’s cold and frosty, the conditions can be excellent. Sometimes, the cold weather will bring a freezing fog, but on other … Continue reading Spectacular Winter Light For Landscape Photography
Happy New Year. I’m not yet back in the swing of things following the Christmas and New Year Break, and I certainly haven’t been able to do any photography. It hasn’t stopped raining here since before Christmas, other than for short spells. I’ve therefore busied myself editing more images from my recent trip to Japan. … Continue reading Landscape Photography Processing
Christmas and the New Year are almost on us. But before I shut down for a break, I wanted to share a few snowy photos from the past.

Living in the UK, I’m never that far from the coast, and I love a bit of coastal photography. Now for the bad news. I live in the North West of England, which doesn’t have the rugged coastal beauty of somewhere like Cornwall. Despite this, I do have three locations that I return to repeatedly. … Continue reading My Top 3 Coastal Photography Locations
Last week, I published a post where I shared a few of my bucket list photos taken in Dubai. In that post, I also shared my thoughts about using my iPhone alongside a regular camera. This week, I’ll continue the theme of travel photography with some images from Japan. Whilst I would love to tell … Continue reading My Ideal Travel Camera Kit
If you regularly visit this site, you’ve probably noticed that I haven’t posted anything for over a month. That’s because I’ve been out of the country travelling. First to Dubai, which was then followed by Japan. Both locations have been high on my photography bucket list for years, so I decided it was about time … Continue reading Bucket List Photography With an iPhone
The weather for Wednesday this week looked extremely promising. The forecast was for localised fog with the sun breaking through later in the morning. I decided these would be the perfect conditions for photographing the woodland at Padley Gorge in the Peak District. I arranged to meet up with an old friend at 7:30 am … Continue reading A Day of Lessons in Landscape Photography
As regular readers of my ramblings will know, I have complained about the colours produced by my Panasonic G9. As a result, I even found myself buying an Olympus EM5. After some time with that, I felt extremely pleased with its colours and started using it instead of the G9. Then someone suggested on this … Continue reading Comparing the Olympus EM5 and Panasonic G9 Colours
