Can you print an image with the cheapest Micro Four Thirds camera I could buy?
The idea was to buy the cheapest Micro Four Thirds camera from MPB and see if I could get an image good enough to print out. So I am now the proud owner of a Panasonic Lumix G10 and 14-42 kit lens - all for under £100!
What I wasn't counting on was the first named storm of the season coming for a visit at the same time!
So, come join me for a visit to the shores of Derwent Water in Keswick as Storm Ashley makes it's presence felt and see what I managed to get with this little bargain of a camera!

Come join me for a wander around taking in the glorious scenes in one of the most fantastic places for photography, to say I filled my boots in an understatement but there's a little taster of what I managed to shoot in the video - just ...

Surprise Misty Sunrise Conditions - Moody and Glorious!
Переглядів 32621 день тому
After stopping off en route to another location the mist was far too good to pass up before sunrise at Cromford in Derbyshire. A small stroll waiting for the sun was rewarded with some very spooky images and when the sun finally appeared (not how I was hoping I hasten to add) it was just the icing on the cake! Come join me for a very quick wander in this freezing fog wonderland and see what I m...

Why I don't adhere to single photography genres - diversify, adapt and improve!
Переглядів 730Місяць тому
There seems to be a growing trend these days that you have to fit into a specific box or are seen as a bit of an outcast. For photography the majority of UA-cam channels seem to revolve around having a landscape photography box to fit in, which is fine, but what if you fancy a change? I've always felt that covering a range of genres actually helps improve your photography in all areas rather th...

Just a quick chance of pace this week but come join me for a coffee at Starbucks!

Do you have a favourite shop that you like the interior of? Maybe try snapping a few phone shots like I have and see what yo...
Kingfisher photography - the holy grail of birds and a lesson in patience!
Переглядів 6162 місяці тому
In wildlife photography there's one bird that always gets more attention than most - the Kingfisher! Maybe it's the fact that it's so elusive and spotting one takes patience and being in the right place at the right time, or is it that it's such a striking bird? Either way, it's always a treat to capture one so that's what I set off to do this week at Severn Valley Country Park in the midlands....
Can you shoot in any weather? Wet and Windy but Glorious Photography!
Переглядів 3532 місяці тому
You know sometimes you get the urge to do some photography but the weather is against you? Well that's what happened to me in the Lake District at the beginning of August. The wind and rain made any kind of real photography nearly impossible so between showers I took a stroll down a lane in St John's in the Vale near Legburthwaite and had a wander around a little picnic area next to a stream. I...
