Bee Happy

by

So that’s too corny, but what do you do. Decided to spend some time with the residents of my garden today. Useless models though…

Anyone for Cricket?

by

So I was lucky enough to be taken to the Cricket at Lords today. I used to be a huge Cricket fan in my youth and followed both Glamorgan and England through highs and lows. As ever, you acquire responsibilities and other occupants of your time and you lose track of things that were once …

Leadenhall Market

by

I really like Leadenhall Market. It’s a wonderful place to go and pretend you aren’t really in the City at lunchtime. The market itself dates back to the 14th century. It primarily sells fresh food; among the vendors there are cheesemongers, butchers and florists. Originally it was a meat, game and poultry market. The ornate …

Southbank Centre World Map in Lego

by

Finally, these are rubbish photos (IMHO – all taken by me) but I think the idea of inviting the public in over several weeks to build a world map from Lego is brilliant. I would like to point out that sometimes my son gets to play with his Duplo once I’ve finished with it… E-M5 …

Shooting near London Bridge and Monument

Lots of tourists, lots of people exploiting the tourists (had to dodge the pickpockets but the Ice cream sellers were fair game) …

Exchange Sq and Liverpool St with Oly 75mm

by

This lens is mindblowingly good. I’m honestly wondering if it can resolve more detail than the sensor can manage. Before you accuse me of being overblown, look at some of the shots I took today! Note one of the pictures was with the Oly 12mm WA lens. Anyway, I’m still sore that I’ve not been …

Rentamob

by

I saw these guys preparing to set up a protest outside the station I commute to in London, assumed they were for real with their protest for a 4 day week and snapped a few shots. I then looked closer at the photos and noticed the web address on the cards and placards for something …
