Photography Tips #14: Moving to Mirrorless
**Sorry for the no show I’ve had so much happen (all will be revealed) *** I haven’t really been posting photography related things recently, mainly due to the combination of working very long shifts and being in the awkward waiting transitional period of graduating and continuing my life as an adult… Camera equipment can beContinue reading “Photography Tips #14: Moving to Mirrorless”
Canon EOS 7dii Review
What an amazing outcome. After the untimely (but fixable) death of my Canon EOS 6d, I managed to acquire, one of the arguably best sports cameras Canon produce the Canon EOS 7dii. This update from the 7d has all the features the 7d had but is augmented to a modern platform. My review of theContinue reading “Canon EOS 7dii Review”
Visiting Bamburgh in Winter
A weekend away with no internet and good friends is something everyone should do throughout the year. Last time I was in the foggy Lake District with good friends and a rabbit.

Gold Beach Landscape Photography
Gold Beach stretches along the Normandy coastline, famously harbouring Port Winston in the Second World War. And also of course being a British Landing Beach for D-Day. I love these beaches not just because of their incredible history, but also of their eerie stillness, flatness and their failure to not shine golden in the sun,Continue reading “Gold Beach Landscape Photography”

IContinue reading “My Holiday in Normandy”
Sheep In Hand Photography
When I first got a bit more serious about equine and show photography, admittedly I brushed off the idea of photographing sheep and cattle shows. I put this mainly down to my ignorance of not exactly understanding the showing of these animals, and definitely not understanding how one sheep is better than another sheep that looksContinue reading “Sheep In Hand Photography”

Being used toContinue reading “How to Take Photos of Rugby”
