Valencia, 2013 (10/06/2013)

It's been ages since my last post... Well it's been a hectic few weeks, processing photos from my trip to Valencia, scanning many rolls of film, and a trip to Istanbul, and that's on top of catching up with work.

Well, after weeks of processing, editing and curating, finally here are some images of this great city; one which was under the control of many peoples and influence of cultures such as the Romans, Moors, Germanics, and Aragons just to name a few.

Tales on Film: Isle of Wight - Part 1 (15/05/2013)

I spend this Easter visiting the Isle of Wight, England's largest island. It's a beautiful little island and considering it's size (it's only about 150 sq miles), there was plenty to see.

Here's what I saw...

My London of Film posts are some of the most popular posts on the blog and I truely enjoy sharing them, but what about film photos that aren't shot in London?
Well, now I'll be posting these in a new set simply entitled "Tales on Film".

For the first episode I'll take you to Bournemouth, September 2013. A close friend's (the baby on the right in the last photo) stag weekend.

Welcome to Miami: Street Photography (10/12/2012)

During a recent work trip to Miami, Florida, I was able to spend a well deserved couple of days shooting the streets of Miami Beach (and of course the beaches). It was a real treat going from 5°C in London to 27°C in Miami. The streets, beaches, bars, and shopping malls were a feast for the eyes (or lens as the case may be).

From a photography point of view though, my problem was that I'd never shot the streets in the States before and was weary of waving a camera in someones face, especially on the beach. It normally takes me a few days to get acclimatised to shooting in a new city or country, unfortunately those were a few days that I did not have. Nevertheless I did try and shoot as much as possible and was exhausted by the end of my trip (Who was it that said a street photographers most important toll apart from his camera are his shoes?).

I don't think this series of photos will do Miami justice, as there's so much going on at all times and I was not as comfortable on the streets as I'd like to have been. But they're a start of hopefully a new project in this fine city.

All shots were on the Olympus OM-D E-M5 + Panny/Leica 25mm f1.4, my newly acquired Oly 12mm f2.0 and 45mm f1.8 lenses:
