Getting things in order…

Posted on October 5, 2018 by Guthlac

  The golden hour, oh how we photographers bang on about it.  The golden hour – the time around dawn and dusk when the light is at its best!   That is of course when the weather forecast is correct.   A … Continue reading →

A good dollop of RAM…

Posted on September 26, 2018 by Guthlac

Completing the theme….

Posted on September 16, 2018 by Guthlac

Continuing a theme…

Posted on September 15, 2018 by Guthlac
