Well I don't know if I'd call myself a photographer yet...but I've just passed my second year in photography..
I got my Nikon D70s on June 7th 2006, 2 years ago last month. I had some cameras before that, an old Olympus mju 35mm film point and shoot and I got my first digital camera in [...]

Definitely time to build a new computer, now I process a lot of NEF/RAW files from my camera...I spend half of my time waiting for loading and filters to run.
It's a reasonable length I've been using this setup too, I find 18 months to be a regular upgrade cycle for the core components of my [...]

The last few pics from my trip to Minehead back in August last year, the weather was pretty overcast so I went for Black and White conversion and a couple of HDR thrown in for good measure.

May - Archives
May was a pretty happening month with a good variety of different types of events.
My quest for decent Siao Loong Pau started and still continues to this day.

After our walk I suggested we headed up to the top of the hill to catch the sunset over the bay, here I captured some of my favourite pictures of all time, including my number 1 all time favourite!

Well after lazing around on the terrace all day we went for a walk along to the harbour and down towards the beach (the opposite direction from Butlins!) to get away from the people and get a bit of fresh air and exercise.
It was a nice walk, along by the harbour, the lifeboat station and [...]

Yes my beloved 3 month old Nikon D70s is gone..gone I tell you.
It was supposed to be a good weekend, good plans, good company, good food..
I'd just done my research, asked around, saved up and bought a new SP AF90mm F/2.8 Di Macro 1:1 lens too on Saturday afternoon, I was excited to go home [...]

Ah finally back from Dubai, my sleeping pattern is a bit screwed though because of the 4 hour time difference and the 7 hour overnight flight..
It'll get back to normal soon enough I guess..
Well yes, finally I'm back! Dubai was...hot and sandy and it makes me fat as you can order everything under the sun [...]

So after the cathedral I had a walk through the deserted streets of Worcester City center.
There weren't many people around as it was a weekday afternoon and it was getting towards the time when the shops close...yeah 5.30pm
Shocking eh!
I had a walk through the oldest part of Worcester near the city wall, Friar Street. It [...]
