Growing my other limb

This blog is set up to document my photographic experiences (or rather, experiences that I photograph, as it usually is that way around) as I develop my portfolio and hopefully move on to bigger and better photography-related things.

My cameras are as follows:

My D-SLR baby, acquired in 2008, is a Canon EOS 1000D SLR that came with an 18-55mm lens. I also have a 50mm prime lens and a 75-300mm telephoto lens.

As of the end of 2011, I have started shooting with my Nikon D3. This is a much meatier, pro' camera with 18-55mm, 14-24mm, 105mm prime, and 70-300mm lenses.

In November 2009, I bought a Sony Cyber-Shot DSC HX1 as a halfway point between a point-and-shoot compact and the full kit (geek bag and all) of my D-SLR cameras.

My point-and-shoot compact digital camera of choice is a usually a model from the Panasonic Lumix range. I bought a Tz10 in June 2011, and before that had an FS15, which in turn succeeded my FX33.

An Amazon list of some of my kit can be found here.

Photography Quotations

The camera doesn't make a bit of difference. All of them can record what you are seeing. But, you have to SEE.
~ Ernst Haas, Comment in workshop; 1985

To the complaint, 'There are no people in these photographs,' I respond, 'There are always two people: the photographer and the viewer.'



It's difficult to hold a camera and bath a rat. ~ Eve; 2009 As the camera clings to the common thread, Beyond all vanity, Into a gaze to shoot you through. ~ Elvis Costello & Diana Krall; 'Narrow Daylight' A photograph is always invisible: it is not it that we see. ~ Roland Barthes
