The tops of things

A history of modern cameras leading up to this week-end's Birmingham NEC ... which we shan't attend. #830. Monday Post (11 March 2019) - Have you lost interest yet?

The weekend of March 16th to 19th will see the UKs biggest camera and photography show, imaginatively titled “The Photography Show“, held at its regular venue in the heart of England at the Birmingham NEC.  It has been through different organisers and names, but the formula has remained basically the same – stands from most of the major manufacturers, lots of stands for everything photographic…

Street Portraits: Don’t be Afraid to Ask

Hello! I’m Adam and this is my first article on this site. If you’d like to know a little more about me, then you can read this interview that DearSusan conducted with me by clicking here.   For 2017 I set myself the challenge of street portraits. I’d been shooting street for a while, but never really gelled with the idea of going up to complete strangers and asking if I could take pictures of…

I just returned from Cuba, where our group had the opportunity to photograph two premier Ballerinas, at a wonderful old mansion in Havana.  To say this was an extraordinary photographic opportunity, would be an understatement.  I told my wife, it was likely the most fun I’ve ever had making images. The setting was perfect and the two Ballerina dancers beautiful. This type of photography is very…

We’re Art Geniuses

Or at least our reflections are.

This was a truly wonderful show at NCMA. 

We’re always there for inspiration, and if you didn’t know, you can go to all ‘normal’ galleries for free at NCMA all the time.  (It’s only special shows you pay for. )

What a gem... and I should know, I’m a genius.

A Nifty Fathers Day to You All

Nothing I like better than a family walk. I hope these little things are what my kids remember about me. And that I made them laugh...

My best to you fathers today. High five for doing the work, caring, taking the time to notice what’s up with your kids... being in a young person’s life.

And if you didn’t have that sort of relationship with your Dad, I hope you find healing. Our church did a great job discussing both the challenge to be a good dad (not perfect, just present in our kid’s lives), and some realistic insight into those folks who are hurting. Check that talk out HERE.

Now, you’ll excuse me while I run out for some ice cream with the kids... New place just opened up by Southpoint. Maybe there will be photos ;-)
