    Second body for Wedding

    I have a 5DM3 and a wedding to shoot in June, I'm going to need a second body and I'm loathed to buy another 5DM3... Not because I don't think it'll do the job, it's because it seems old and boring.. I am interested in the latest technology and ideally I want to be using it (but not so much...

    Ricoh GR - 28mm

Also has focus snap, so you can define the focus distance - so built in zone focussing! Here's a selection of some of my stuff over the last couple of...

    Comic Con

    I wanted portable lighting, so that I could make portrait photos in the busy halls of the comic con event. Last time I went I had my wife with me, and she held the softbox - this made it a lot easier, this time she didn't come so I had to do it myself - see attached image.... Full set here...

    New found love - 35mm

    I started street photography 2-3 months ago, everyone raves about 35mm - I tried it, and hated it. I suppose when you're new, you haven't developed techniques and you have to get that close to people it makes it a very daunting prospect! So over these 2-3 months I shot with telephoto lenses...

    Voyeurism

    I was reading some threads, one post which suggested anything over 50mm was not street photography - it was voyeurism. Albeit, tongue in cheek - but some people seem to be really opinionated about focal lengths. I have only recently started to try my hand at 'street photography' or 'voyeurism'...
