On my wish list:
The Sony A7ii or A7Rii Full Frame Mirrorless body.
(hmm One day)...
Photography is a hobby and also a neat way to express the world as seen through my eyes.. I am always looking to catch the available light and freeze frame a moment in time.
I do tend to photograph anything that forces me to take a second look, this is great with a digital camera because you can almost check the results instantly, however I do also like to sometimes pause for breath and take my time to carefully frame each shot (as if I have only got... the 24 or 36 frames per roll of film).seriously with digital you can soon find you have 40x shoots off the same image and most look the same.
Then again you can sometimes zoom in on your taken image and realise there is more in the picture then you first realised.. (a micro spider or a fancy lady bird bla.bla..) Of course I will always take the credit for anything I manage to photograph by default..
I consider myself a little outspoken at times but not insensitive to others feelings. I Certainly have got a cheeky S.O.H.
Not really a fan of Twitter or Facebook, but this friendly Blip community rather appeals and somewhat inspires me.
Thank you all for sharing your pictures and comments.
Enjoy the light….
And Thanks for stopping by… RCH.
