Well I figured this camping thing needed its own thread :) So stay tuned for some photos of me doing what I love. Here is Tank enjoying shade under the car on a hot day in the middle of nowhere.

Well thinking tonight I have decided to buy a Nikon FM camera. Along with 5 x 36 rolls of film. Some people may ask why, my reasoning is that I love the feel and look of film. I also like the fact that I have to think about everything and nothing can really be fixed in post. I hope this makes...

Well I have decided that this time off I am going to test myself. I am going to cover the rear LCD on my D800E and see if I can take 36 good photos with out viewing them afterwards. I think this will be a good test and will make me think more about composition and lighting that what I normally...

Well sitting here at work with only a few more nights to go I am getting itchy feet to pack up my car and go camping, I will be looking at going somewhere with no people and the only company I will have is my two dogs. Now the hard part is deciding where to go :)

Well I thought it was high time I started using some features on LR that are there, one being the Publish service. Here is one that I just published to FLickr, the good thing about this is that you just drop and drag it into the Flickr section on the right in LR and you already have your...

Well my 4 Bay NAS arrived today and I have just set it up. Wasn't too hard although I could not find it by connecting it to the modem so had to connect direct to my iMac and share its ethernet port as internet. But all in all it was very straight forward and I now have 3TB on a Gigabit...

Here is a quick video demonstrating that even on a breezy day like today you can still take a macro.

Hey guys I am after some input regarding diffuser shapes for macro, I have sourced the material which is light weight and a great diffuser but also quite sturdy. Here is a design mock up that I did last night, I am going for max spread of light but also leaving a nice catch light in the eyes of...

Well today I went up in this. I could have been greedy and went by myself, but I invited two work mates along.

Was asked by a mate if I could take a few photos for him, he had this idea for mothers day. So early this morning we went down to the park and shot some pics. This rendition is what he had in mind. These will be printed on canvas squares.

Well it is that time of year where we start fires to burn away the spear grass that has grown 10+ft in some places. This provides a bounty of food for whistling kites and black kites who as it has been told will pick up a burning stick and drop it where nothing is burning so that the insects...
