The Light of Spring
2023-03-27 14:05:11 UTC
The clocks went backwards by one hour over the weekend. This disruption to our sleep pattern has made no difference because the clouds on Sunday morning was a blanket smog of nasty grey. That was yesterday. This morning, I was greeted with with the Light of Spring. Oh glorious spring…

FV | XF 23mm 1.4 - A Fuji Masterpiece
2023-01-04 23:44:35 UTC
The 35mm Frame is a gorgeous Canvass to work on. In my mind, the 35mm Frame and The 35mm Lens is a perfect partnership for creating images. This combination cannot be beaten simply because they have been designed to work together in symbiotic harmony. Yes, it is a Wide Frame…

35mm CF | Layers Part 2
2022-07-31 12:56:05 UTC
From the moment I got off the Bus, I started to see it; multiple subjects and stories. It has always been there - I have always seen it. What’s interesting is I was not aware of this context; Shooting in Layers. My Camera is set to give me good depth…

35mm Classic Frame
2022-07-30 17:13:01 UTC
The Classic Frame of 35mm is the perfect Canvass. If I could start my photographic journey again, I would stick with this and nothing else for a year. My thinking is based on how my eyes work. I see wide so between 28mm and 50mm, the classic frame of 35mm…

35mm CF | Humans & Environment
2022-07-29 12:10:06 UTC
I am expanding this study of the classic frame with a new context; Humans and Their Environment. I find this to be an interesting focus for my training. Here is how I will approach this. First and foremost, I will be seeking a good compelling background. And then, I will…

35mm CF | Honouring The Frame
2022-07-26 12:06:43 UTC
The Classic Frame is all about seeing the content and arranging the elements perfectly. I can already feel the importance of having clean edges. This means getting it right in Camera. I try not to crop after the fact. The 35mm Frame is a beautiful Canvass. It inspires me to…

Contemplation: Context is Decisive
2021-03-23 20:09:44 UTC
The Frame of 35mm is everything. No more. No less. It can only hold so much. My Camera is not Full Frame so using the 23mm gives me the classic field of view of 35mm. So, with this Lens, I see the wide spectacle of this amazing Frame. It really…

Contemplation: The Classic Frame
2021-03-22 20:43:51 UTC
This new study in Contemplative Photography Focuses on The Classic Frame 35mm. My Fuji journey began with The X100T. This Camera was fitted with a 23mm F2 Lens. In Full Frame terms, this equalled 35mm. I am returning to my roots and shooting with this Focal Length again - I…

2020 Vision | 35mm - The Classic Frame
2020-09-23 10:44:15 UTC
I am learning more about creating images within the Classic Frame. The #xf23mmf2 is vintage 35mm wide but not too wide. Just wide enough for a context driven narrative. This field of view is great training because it forces me not to waste my 16 mega pixels on my sensor. …

2020 Vision | The CC Battle of The X-Tran
2020-06-17 18:45:47 UTC
The image above was created this morning using my XPro1. I attempted to create a Classic Chrome look using the camera because Classic Chrome is my favourite Film Simulation. I love the muted colours with deep shadows thrown in for dramatic impact. I can only achieve this look using my…

2020 Vision | Candid or Asking
2020-05-21 19:22:56 UTC
Candid moments can be a truly awesome expression of life. Disturbing the scene to ask permission will not work. I rather capture the moment and apologies after. Some of my best moments however came out of a conversation and then asking. I saw this gentleman sat proudly in his obviously…

My Daily Motor Show
2019-08-09 23:45:39 UTC
I really love my neighbourhood. It has a sense of peace and calm tranquility that makes living here a great blessing. Maida Vale connects with Warwick Avenue which leads into Little Venice. This means I am treated to a daily extravaganza of photogenic opportunities. My Daily ritual is creating images…
