It’s funny how the same questions keep coming up in photography and this is one of them. Which is the better camera the RX100 or the LX5/LX7? I see people arguing on forums, it comes up as a search term in the traffic stats for this sight and I even receive emails asking this. I … Continue reading RX100 V’s LX5 and LX7 – Part 1

Friday image No.008
Another image from my recent Yorkshire Dales trip. This was also taken on the first morning and is perhaps my favourite image from that day. I feel the quality of light is amazingly strong in this image. The light quality is often better in the morning than the evening as there is less dust in … Continue reading Friday image No.008
Bad Weather Photography
Last week I wrote about how I visited Blackpool to photograph the storms when the bad weather hit. In case you weren’t aware, the UK has been hit by a series of storms for some 8 weeks now (usually a couple each week). Each storm brings huge amounts of rain (for the UK at least), … Continue reading Bad Weather Photography
Friday image No. 007
Nothing too much to describe here. This is Twistleton Scar in the Yorkshire Dales and was photographed last weekend. I love the location and it’s not often I can get to it for dawn. I really need some time to perfect the processing of the image but I hope you like this early version.
An unexpected twist to the weekend
It was a rather unusual weekend. I was due to be out with a couple of friends in the Yorkshire Dales shooting the landscape which is famed for its wonderful Lime Stone. Unfortunately the weather definitely had other plans for us. We met up the night before and spent the evening looking at the weather … Continue reading An unexpected twist to the weekend
Weekend Image No. 006
It's a day early (because I have a hectic schedule tomorrow and over the weekend) but here is this week’s weekend image and it’s an odd one. The reason I say this is because I like the image when I first look at it and it even prints very nicely. It’s then when I start … Continue reading Weekend Image No. 006
Photography with an open mind
Yesterday was time for a walk in that it wasn't raining hard; at least not when I headed out. As is usually the case I picked up a camera to take with me but this time it was a hard decision. Was it worth actually bothering? You see the walk I was intending to do … Continue reading Photography with an open mind
Friday Image 006
In all my dashing around today I almost forgot to post my Friday image. I quite like the discipline of trying to create and post an image a week. I know others seem to manage one or more a day but I have too much else on to be able to make such a commitment. … Continue reading Friday Image 006
Contemplative Photography
For some reason, quite often when I tell people that I am reading a book on photography they appear surprised. I don't know why but it's just the general impression I get. I start by saying this as I am about to discuss a book I have purchased. Anyway, I was recently browsing the photography … Continue reading Contemplative Photography
Why you dont need a DSLR
One of the great things I love about my blogging platform is that it allows me to see how people have found my site. Recently I have seen a lot of traffic coming from forums where people have considered switching from a DSLR to Micro 43. Typically someone with a good DSLR such as a … Continue reading Why you dont need a DSLR
