Personal Blog

With my professional work I find myself taking fewer and fewer personal photos due to lack of time and other commitments, and that eats away at me inside. Ever since I bought my first camera I have found taking photographs a form of release, often retreating from other stresses and difficult periods into the world of the camera, filtering the world through the viewfinder. For many of those photographs, they never see the light of day; they served their purpose purely in the process of crafting the exposure, and their existence is often forgotten about for long periods of time until I chance upon them when sorting my archives. With this blog I hope to share some of those rediscoveries, open them out to the world and share the joy finding them gives to me. I will also be making an effort to take more photos in my free time and use this as a platform to share some of the things I like to photograph when I'm not working to a brief.

Wild camping in the north of Scotland

September 13, 2015

I recently bought a Fujifilm XT-1 that I use now pretty much exclusively when I'm not working. Its such a nice camera to use, it reminds me of using my old Pentax sp1000 and its size, simplicity and quality brings a lot of the fun back in to taking photos. The in camera jpeg conversion is good enough for me not to edit the majority of the photos. I've never been one for digitally converting to black and white, all my previous B+W images came from 35mm or 120 film, but the B&W settings on this have been fun to use.

Reka and I spent the bank holiday weekend finding some remote beaches around Ullapool and Gairloch and setting up camp. We didn't sleep the first night for what sounded like hail stones on the tent, but that didn't matter when we found the beach and Clachtoll the next day.

On the drive home we stopped at the Black Isle on the off chance we could see dolphins. I've been before with no luck, but this time they appeared 2 minutes after our arrival. We couldn't have been luckier! Sadly I don't yet have a long enough lens for the XT-1 so the 18-55mm kit lens had to do.
