This image was again taken at Lincoln cathedral and again it was taken with the Olympus E-410. Walking around the cloisters I lost sight of my wife. I turned to take a photo of the opposite cloister and there was this person looking at me out of the darkness. It made me jump and it … Continue reading MMX: Watching

MMX: Waiting
Taken with an Olympus E-410 in the cloisters of Lincoln Cathedral. As might be expected there were a lot people around the cathedral, and it was difficult getting shots that didn't include brightly arrayed tourists. However, as I walked through the cloisters I turned to my right and saw this gentleman just standing there evidently … Continue reading MMX: Waiting
MMX: Flowers and Altar
Taken in Lincoln Cathedral with an Olympus E-410 at ISO 400. As I walked through the cathedral I was struck by the way the light fell on the altar which due to its stone gave it a different hue to the rest of the stonework. I love the way the carpet leads you up to … Continue reading MMX: Flowers and Altar
MMX: Three Menus
Taken with an Olympus E-410. I was struck whilst sitting in a small café in Lincoln with the olde-world charm of it and the view outside. The two menus on the tables anchor the shot and the sides and top are framed by the curtains. The eye then drifts out of the window to the … Continue reading MMX: Three Menus
MMX: Snow, Beach and Sea
This image was taken with an Olympus E-620 on a freezing cold Skegness beach in January. The composition immediately fell together because of the horizontal lines separating the snow, sand and sea sitting virtually on the thirds of the picture. I took several images without the two people in the picture but as they walked … Continue reading MMX: Snow, Beach and Sea

Janette was looking at something on the … Continue reading MMX: Pyramid and Birds

The book contains both colour and black and white images, and is meant to be representative of the … Continue reading MMX Book Cover
Er…it’s another bag.
So what’s the excuse this time Marshall I hear you cry? Why another camera bag?Well it’s all to do with the National Geographic Earth Explorer Medium camera bag that I reviewed last time. If you remember I placed the small version of the NG bag that I had bought previously inside the medium size and … Continue reading Er…it’s another bag.
National Geographic Earth Explorer Medium Shoulder Bag
In my blog of the 11th April, I did a review on the National Geographic Earth Explorer Small Shoulder bag. I said how I thought it was a really good, well made small bag for carrying one camera. I also stated that I was pondering the purchase of the medium sized version of the bag. … Continue reading National Geographic Earth Explorer Medium Shoulder Bag
On one leg
We have another VDCC meet coming up on Saturday (weather permitting) and I have decided that I am going to use the monopod that has never even been outside. Two of the club members and I went up to the Peak District two weeks ago and did a 5 mile walk up and around Mam … Continue reading On one leg
