About Me

My photo
Flint, North Wales, United Kingdom
The business of photography has become tougher every year and this is not just down to the financial crisis. Everyone now considers themselves a photographer, even though they have no idea of the market they are dabbling in. This has destroyed business for the professionals and many can not survive and make an honest living. I have reverted to taking images for myself only and have to tend to a day job in order to continue my photography. This is the space I share my images, gripes and experiences.

Full Frame

Had to dig out my office today.
By pure coincidence I came across my very first full frame Polaroid!
Not a 'real' one though. Its a fujifilm instant image.
However, its the first I took that filled the image pane fully, without cropping!

Its a new Dawn

Got myself into trouble again!
I spent some serious money on a Carl Zeiss lens for my olde Nikon FE and now I am 'In the Dog House' with 'her indoors'!
My digital cameras are getting dusty. I'm just not motivated enough lately to shoot on digital. I've leart to love film. The use of a fully manual, non-electronic lens is much more exciting than fussing around with the 'big guns'. I spent thousands on the most modern D-SLRs and I am having more fun shooting on TMax 100/400.
This space will excibit the results when I get around to processing my negatives.
Just have to wait until the wife has calmed down.

Waiting.....


Still waiting......


Well, maybe not today.
