A camera you'll either love, or hate, or most likely both. What do I think? Find out within.

Lomo Instant Wide - First Impressions

January 10, 2016 in Results, Gear

After much deliberation...wait, who am I kidding, let's start again. After very little deliberation I decided to get myself one of the first batch of Instant Wide cameras from Lomography. This uses Fuji Instax Wide film, which I really like, and I was intrigued by the camera having seen some great results with the Lomo Instant, which uses Instax mini film. Here are my first impressions of using both the camera and film, along with some self reflection.

A snapshot of the Pacific Northwest

November 07, 2015 in Results, Travel, USA

I really need to post my photographs a little closer to the time when they were made. With that in mind, here are some photos from the Pacific Northwest from April this year. OK, so if we're being fair then this is hardly a contemporaneous post. Regardless, some photographs for you to look at and some words to read.

People of WPPD

July 26, 2015 in Results

You would thing that WPPD (Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day for those who have not been paying attention) would be all about pinhole photography, right? Well yes, but mostly know. For me this year, WPPD was all about the people. These are people I am delighted and privileged to be able to call my friends. These are people I ate, drank, swore, bowled, drove and photographed with. These are the people that make a lie of the fact that the internet stops you from making real connections. These are the people of WPPD.

Margins

February 14, 2015 in Results, Norfolk

To the west of Norfolk, where the county meets Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire, you find the fens. An area of flat, some might say featureless, land, much of which is below sea level. The fens are criss-crossed with channels and waterways, and retain much of the area of mystery they must have had before they were drained by Dutch "Adventurers". This is a story of a trip to the fens, and to their margins where land, sea and sky meet.
