Regular readers of AS-V may know that I am a big fan of David duChemin, the Canadian photographer, writer and traveller. He always writes the kind of photography books that I like to read, and takes photographs of the quality that I wish I could take. Despite his obvious success he always comes across as … Continue reading See the World by David duChemin

Out and About – Stratford On Avon
The basin in Stratford today was frozen over. The commercial barges that lay at berth were locked in by the ice and the ever-present ducks and swans looked bemused as they ambled about wondering why the water which hitherto they had floated on, had gone hard. The sun was bright, and obviously showing-off, but it’s … Continue reading Out and About – Stratford On Avon
Infrared?
I’ve been smacking the photography demons away from infecting my brain lately because they keep whispering, “Try infrared, try infrared”. I actually would really like to give it a go and have even gone as far as to look at camera possibilities and companies to do the conversion. The Nikon D70 is a good camera … Continue reading Infrared?
Why did I take that photograph?
I’m sitting here at my desk currently going through RAW images that I took in June 2014 and wondering why on earth I took them.

As … Continue reading Out and About – Hatton Locks.

Out and About – Black Country Living Museum
Today I was in Dudley at the Black Country Living Museum. A great place where you can see how people lived and worked in the Black Country from the start of the industrial revolution. The museum recreates a black country industrial town of over a hundred years ago over 26 acres, which include shops, houses, … Continue reading Out and About – Black Country Living Museum
Out and About – Charlecote Park
I had the idea last year that I would try and remember to write an 'Out and About' post every time I went out on a shoot. Here’s the first one for 2015. It’s been a rough start to the year so far. Both Mrs M and I came down with the flu (it WAS the flu, … Continue reading Out and About – Charlecote Park
