I will do that post about how to buy camera gear eventually, I promise! In the mean time,...
Learn MoreSorry folkaroonies, there isn’t going to be a post today. For those of you who don’t know, on the 24th of August Nikon is making some kind of worldwide announcement and this makes me so excited that I’m going to have to call up the dictionary people and tell them to paste my photo over the definition of “giddy”. I hope they use this photo: I...

Learn MoreIf you have been following this blog for the last week or so, then you would remember me mentioning I would make my own light painting gallery, and here it is! It’s nothing fancy as compared to the work featured in my post on light painting here, but I am pretty proud of my angry nocturnal fire-breathing poolside flower monster. The colored flower piece was done by...
