Last week, I shared some of the images I captured on a trip to Cornwall. On my way home, I called at Wells in Somerset to photograph the wonderful Cathedral there. In a moment, I’ll share a couple of shots from inside the Cathedral, but first, I want to explain something about my processing. Regular … Continue reading DxO Lens Module Limitation When Developing RAW Files

My Panasonic G9 Surprise
Problems are never quite as simple as we think they are. When we look at a problem, we tend to think in terms of cause and effect. Something has changed, which has caused the problem. Find what changed, and we fix the problem. Except things aren’t like that in the real world. Real world problems … Continue reading My Panasonic G9 Surprise
Olympus EM5 Mark III High Resolution Mode
You may already know but I recently purchased an Olympus EM5 Mark III camera. So far, I’ve found the camera a joy to use, and I’ve been delighted by the images and colours produced. One disappointing area however has been the High-Resolution mode which I recently suggested was the camera’s weak spot. When used in … Continue reading Olympus EM5 Mark III High Resolution Mode
Forgetting the Basics of Photography
As I mentioned last week I bought a new camera, a used Olympus EM5. It’s an excellent camera and I love the colours. Last weekend I took it out for a trial and managed a few nice images but also ruined a few for reasons I’ll outline. Recently I’ve been experiencing problems with flare when … Continue reading Forgetting the Basics of Photography
What, No Heather!
Yesterday, I headed out to do a walk around Win Hill in the Peak District. I’ve done this walk in the past or tried to. It’s supposed to be around 6 miles but last time it turned into 12 because I thought I knew the route but didn’t. This time the weather looked promising, so … Continue reading What, No Heather!

The problem with the media is that they often use a circulated press release to produce their articles. They do this because they are short on … Continue reading A Question About Camera Equipment
Micro Four Thirds Delivers The Goods
Yesterday, I met up with a friend in the Peak District for some photography. The day before, I spent a lot of time wondering which camera should I take. The choice was to go with my Fuji XT3 which is the camera I use most often. Alternatively, I could take the Panasonic G9 micro four … Continue reading Micro Four Thirds Delivers The Goods
Higger Tor Frosty Landscape
Today’s post will be a short one. I’ve been laid up ill all week and haven’t been able to do much. Outside I can see that we’ve had the first real frost of this winter. As I haven’t been out, I decided to share a shot from the start of this year which was the … Continue reading Higger Tor Frosty Landscape
Coincidence Can be Amazing
I hope that you missed me last Friday. I didn’t post any images because I took the week off. I wanted to finish building some steps and I also went on a walking holiday to the Isle of Man. Whilst there, I shot this woodland image. Isle of Man woodland trail I spotted this as … Continue reading Coincidence Can be Amazing
Blue Hour on Stanage Edge
Yesterday after lunch, I headed over to Stanage Edge in the Peak District to meet a friend. The weather forecast looked good, and I was hopeful for a repeat of the great light from a couple of weeks ago on Carhead Rocks. After meeting up at Stanage, we spent an hour walking the edge to … Continue reading Blue Hour on Stanage Edge
