Ever since the release of the Fuji X Pro 1, in 2012, I’ve been an avid FujiFilm user. Fuji’s retro design and the filmic style images their cameras produce has always resonated with me… and now 10 years on we are given the spectacular Fuji X-T5 ….I have to admit, I haven’t been this excited about a camera release since the introduction of the original X pro 1. Despite owning both the Fuji X-T2 and Fuji XT3, I never felt compelled to write a review as they handling was pretty much the same as the X-T1, albeit some minor improvements. I even bypassed the XT-4 upgrade altogether. I did however r ..read more

I’m excited that a client I have been working with for the past 3 years has finally released her debut album ‘Beach Noir.’ I first met Erin (aka Nire Bird ) through the wonderful Heather Stewart Whyte who was acting as her creative mentor… I instantly clicked with Erin when she expressed her love for David Lynch… her experimental sound and haunting tones echoes of his influence… Nire Bird has shown both passion and conviction on her musical/art journey and her album is testimony to this. Here are just a few images and video clips from our creative journey together; from Margate to Miami: Beach ..read more

In addition to street photography. I also took some landscapes shots whilst exploring the UK. The location, lens and exposure can be found under each photograph. I mainly shot these with the Fuji X-H1 as it tends to be the most Robust out of all my cameras. I do believe Fuji has recently released the the Fuji X-H2 and the Fuji X-H2s both of which I’ve yet to research…For now, the Fuji X-H1 continues to be an honourable companion on many of my adventures.

‘The marvels of daily life are exciting; no movie director can arrange the unexpected that you find in the street.’ Robert Doisneau As photography work was scarce during the lockdown/covid era. I found some solace in street photography. I find something meditative and therapeutic about walking around, observing and capturing random moments in life. My preferred camera for hitting the streets is my Fuji XT30, which as of October 2021, has been upgraded to the Fuji X-T30 ii. Despite the ‘new improved’ model being released so soon I couldn’t quite justify the investment due to one: the poor trade ..read more

I have been using Rotolight now for just over 6 years and was extremely excited when they announced the launch of their new AEOS 2. As a big fan of the original AEOS I was impressed to learn that the overall lux output on the AEOS 2 would increase by over 60% going from 5750 lux (with the original AEOS) to an impressive 9230 lux. What’s more is that in continuous mode (my personal favourite) the power output would increase by 140%. All this without any increase in weight or size. Another handy feature was the inclusion of digital filters (2,500 to be precise). As a fan of coloured gels this w ..read more

(Note: originally I was going to write this as a review of the Fujion XF100-400mm lens but I will give my brief thoughts on that and any technical aspect at the end) After a short stay in Delhi I headed for Madhya Pradesh to visit two of India’s National Parks. Kanha National Park and Bandhavgarh National park Madhya Pradesh is best know for being the inspiration behind Rudyard Kipling “Jungle Book” So my imagination and enthusiasm and was already on fire… “This is a brief life, but in its brevity it offers us some splendid moments, some meaningful adventures.” Rudyard Kipling Getting to see a ..read more

The start of my trip to India was not ideal as not only did I have a severe head cold  but flying into Delhi during Diwali meant that air pollutants were at an all time high and the air quality had been put into the ‘hazardous” category…seeing and breathing in the thick smog with the sun looking burnt out in the sky reminded me of the post apocalyptic cities you see in Sci-fi movies… Yet despite all of this there was a vibrancy about the people going about their everyday lives. Even the excessive tooting of car horns seemed to be done with positivity and not aggression. Here are some of my sho ..read more
