Third Roll

These were taken a few weeks ago actually, while we went to visit my granny me and my dad went blackberry picking so he could make some jam.

These photos were taken with my Canon A-1. :)









We got several pounds worth in the end. Hope you like these photos, until next time! :)

Cameras - Part 1

This will be a several part post, the first I will show you the cameras I used to get into photography, after that I will show you some I have collected over the past months, I tried to make the photos a bit more interesting, hopefully it doesn't look like a boring catalogue! :)


On the first day of 2009 I got a bridge SLR camera, a Fujifilm S5800. For a starting camera I couldn't fault it, some of my most popular photos were taken with it. Here are a couple of examples Cannibals Breakfast and Poison, both got Daily Deviations for which I am very proud! :)

Sixteen months later I got a new camera, hurrah! I got a Pentax K-X, interchangeable lenses... ah so much better. Since I got the K-X I have been exploring my skills as a portrait and fashion photographer, while I have worked with quite a few brilliant models so far, it seems to be quite a slow process to get into the field. However I find it very enjoyable, meeting people though photography is great! I will keep at it! :D

Digital photography is truly amazing and probably taken for granted, however during my brief photography course at college I really fell for analogue photography... It's hard to explain but there is something about the way the photos turn out, it just seems to have more character.

During my course I used my dad's old Nikon F, it was quite damaged by fungus but it was still enjoyable, even if the photography course was not! I would very much like to have the use of a dark room again though... maybe someday I will build my own. :)

A few months ago I found a camera in a second hand shop that had particular relevance to me. When I was about three years old my mum took me to a boot sale and she bought me a camera to play with, over the years I lost that camera. However I found it at that second hand shop! It seemed a lot bigger back in the day though.

Above is a photo of me at my third birthday (I think) showing my new camera to my granny. I thought I was Mr Cool, I was obviously correct! :D

In the next part I will show you some photographs of cameras I have recently added to my collection. I hope you enjoyed this blog post. :)

Until next time!
