  • Zooming My Way to Something New

    You’re probably surprised to see me back already with another post but I’ve been in a very photography orientated mood recently. There’s also the slight boost you get when you receive new gear that makes you want to shoot more although that’s not usually long lived. Despite that, you need to make the most of…

  • My Wedding Ring for Smile on Saturday

    One thing I really like about Flickr is the groups and their weekly challenges. One of those is Smile on Saturday which had the theme of “Rings” this week. In terms of the actual image, it was taken with the Sony Alpha a7C II and Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DN Macro. You may wonder what the…

  • Living the 85MM Life and Loving It

    Recently I’ve been using my 85mm lens a lot more, not just to get more use out of it but also so I can become more accustomed to the focal length, so it feels as natural to me as a 35mn lens. Every single image in this post is taken with the Sigma 85mm f/1.4…

    Keeping it Casual and Chinese New Year

    It’s been some time since my last post and although I don’t have a huge amount of images, I thought it would still be worth doing an update. There’s nothing too groundbreaking in here but just some casual shots as I’ve taken while going about my usual routines. Making Use of a UWA Ultra Wide…

    The Sony Alpha a7C II Has Arrived!

    Last week I purchased the Sony Alpha a7C II! We had a really good sale which was essentially 20% off the price so it was too good to resist. If my cashback requests goes through too then I’ll be getting the camera for even cheaper as well. I’ll share some impressions of it so far…

    The Sigma 50mm f/2 DG DN Has Arrived

    Last week I received my Sigma 50mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary lens. This lens will be something small I can carry around with me when I don’t feel like dealing with the added weight of my 35GM or 85mm Art. Also, once I get the a7C II this lens will primarily be used with that…

  • The iPhone 15 Plus

    I Got the Apple iPhone 15 Plus!

    After 4 years of owning an Apple iPhone XS Max, I finally upgraded. Like anything I thought I’d share some images of the new phone which I took with the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DN Art. This is now my go to product photography lens and it’s continuing to impress me. Below are the actual images…

    A New Record I’ve Set Regarding My Gear

    Welcome to another blog post. This one is a bit funny based on the title. It’s mostly regarding my Fuji but before we get into it, I thought I’d share some other images which will add context to the parts later in the post. Below are a few casual images I took while I was…

  • Fujifilm X-S20

    I Finally Gave in and Bought a New Fujifilm Body

    I have some exciting news as I am the proud owner of a Fujifilm X-S20! I sold my X-S10 back in May as soon as the new body was announced and was waiting for some decent sales. Those sales finally arrived and I’m sure if I waited until the end of the year they would…

  • Lego Bonsai [28/52]

    During Christmas last year I got the Lego Bonsai Tree as a present but hadn’t found the time to set it up. As I needed something for this week’s entry, I figured it was time to make it. I used my grey background with natural light coming from the window to camera left. The gear…
