The Joy of Balloons
We made it down to Bristol for the last dawn ascent of the Balloon Fiesta. We had tried for the evenings previously, becuase let’s face it, who gets up at five in the morning to watch balloons? Ok fine, but not me, generally. The evenings had all been cancelled, because of the apparent turbulence up […]

A change to my photo portfolio
You might recall, my lovely reader, that I was musing a little white back about why in these times I still have a vanity web site and to what use I should put it. I said at the time I might focus a little on my photography – a key part of my day is […]

Wandering thru Not-UpFest 2021
Now I’m not posting as much to Flickr I thought I’d start adding some gallery pages here. Yesterday, we tentatively wandered, masks at the ready, through North Street to look at some of the #75wallsin75days that replaced the covid-postponed UpFest this year. Obviously, only a handful and the ones that took my fancy at the […]

Learning Long Exposure
I experimented the other week with some long exposure shots. It’s not something I have done a lot in the past and in doing so I realised I didn’t fully understand all the details of ND filter photography. Still, for the sake of later comparison here are a few shots taken as we walked down […]

Sony A7Riv : Bluetooth Link
For an electronics company, the way Sony works its bluetooth connection on this new camera is pants. This post might never be needed – maybe it’s me that was being stupid – but for anyone else scratching their heads as they try and connect their A7Riv to their iPhone via Bluetooth… and I can’t speak […]

From Canon to Sony : Lenses
The move from one camera system to another comes not without some trepidation. It’s not the investment in camera bodies – they start out expensive and rapidly decrease in value. The lenses however generally retain or even enhance their value. I have shot Canon for a long time, so there are a fair few decent […]

Photography is changing…
This is really a blog post for me. It’s going to get updated as and when I feel like it. Read, and comment as you please. I suspect it will get picked up in Google searches on this theme… I’ve made the leap, and possibly into interminable darkness. After many years of being a loyal […]

Pepper Porn
Of course, now it’s behind the curtain (so to speak) the blog can take it’s gloves off… My daily blip on blipfoto today was an abstract based on the last tiny green pepper I rescued from the greenhouse before it got its pre-winter pressure wash and polish. I may have lied about the polish. Even […]

Arsenal (not the team) Pt 3
I can see, amongst the barely noticed pages of my irregular blog, that there’s been a fair bit of interest in my articles on the Arsenal AI camera add-on. Ok, so it’s probably time to admit how little I’m using it, but how useful it is being when I do. To recap, the Arsenal was […]

Arsenal (not the team) part two
Inevitably, I was going to shave the plug end. If you have no idea what I’m waffling on about (join the club) then click here. So, a little judicious filing away of the black plastic and wala… whalla… oua’la… how on earth does one spell voilà!? 😉 I’ve kept nuclear power stations on the bars with short […]
