Edinburgh Street Photography Meet Up 1, Digital

“Street Photography Meet Up”, a photo by Sibokk on Flickr. Sunday, 20 May, I met up with a few guys from Flickr for a street photography photo-walk in Edinburgh. Street photography is something I’ve been trying my hand at the past year or so but I still don’t see myself as a street photographer though [...]

Digitally Encased in Urbanite P&S

Running themes, motifs and a mini stupid rant, I think that’s what you could call this post. With my family away up north for the week I feel I can slowly meander home without worrying about being late for tea thus taking a different less direct route. I actually had four cameras with me yesterday [...]

Casio-Yeah!

Inspired by using the R72 filter on my GF1 and reading some bits and bobs online about converting digital cameras to see in Infra-Red I went at the Casio Exilim hiding in a drawer. This is probably the worst camera to do such a task with because every photo almost seems to come out differently. [...]

New Year

So far so bad, day 3 of 2012 has guaranteed a big kick in the bank thanks to the crappy weather but before that … Happy times with the FED 3 loaded with Ilford HP5Plus, 400ASA … Anna abusing our New Years guest. … then this, shot with the GF1 using a Lumix 45mm – [...]

Neutral Density: Achievement Unlocked

My stupidity is often impressive and occasionally astounding. I forgot to cancell an order with 7dayshop.com for two ND filters that were out of stock at the time of purchase and bought another two from Amazon. I now have three ND8 and one ND4 filters, and guess what I did? Yes, I tried out some [...]

Those Hills out Back

I initially started this photography blog to investigate how forgetful I’ve been with regards to the photography classes I took at school and art college and to cover my interest in street style photography. The past 4-5 months I’ve managed to be working on sites that will almost totally guarantee I’ll be no where near [...]

Photo-Weekend

I had high hopes this weekend to shoot lots of film and start developing black and white, turn Coke to Pepsi and finally make world peace a reality. Well, I’m managing to do the first part ok but still no developing yet I’m afraid. I do have my packet of ID11 developer, Rapid Fixer, a [...]

Low Light/Long Exposure – GF1

Lately I’ve been trying a lot of low light experiments with the external digital shutter-release of course with mixed results at first but I think I’m getting near to something interesting now. I went out and about and in and around, mostly using the ghastly manual focus on these Lumix lenses which is always unpleasant [...]

Hoya Lens Filters, GF1

As I mentioned a couple of posts ago I came across some lens filters/add-ons or whatever they’re called. Again I went mental with the GF1 shooting up the place like Rambo at the end of First Blood Part 2 (without the muscles). I really stuck with the +4 this time taking some seriously close portraits [...]

Zoo, GF1 like an Uzi

For Anna’s second birthday we decided to take her to Edinburgh Zoo to see some “guckie’s” (Monkeys) in person. I took with me the following cameras: – Polaroid OneStep, PX600 Silver Shade – Zeiss Ikon Nettar, Ilford HP4, 400ASA – Halina Viceroy, Ektachrome 100 Plus – FED 3, FujiColor Superia 400ASA – Panasonic DMC-GF1 with [...]
