Vintage Camera Collection

February 14, 2012

Just thought I’d share some shots of some vintage camera’s Daniel and I have purchased over the years on eBay. This one is a Yashica 35mm film camera and is not particularly highly regarded for quality, but it does look pretty cool. What makes it unique is the design of the removable flash on the top of the camera.

Bit of fun – ‘Shtuff People Say to Photographers’

February 13, 2012

I had to share this video – I think it’s hilarious…”Such a good photo, you must have a good camera”… “can you do that thing where you make everything black and white except for my hat?”…brilliant!

New Frames Are Here!

February 09, 2012

The new Nielsen frames have arrived and below are a couple of samples to view.

The EcoCare frames from Nielsen Bainbridge are made from sustainable wood alternatives and reclaimed plantation woods, which do not contribute to deforestation.  The frame finish is waterbased and free of chemicals and solvents and include an acid free mat.  The black (mocha) frames are made from the wood of rubber trees, and the natural frames are made from bamboo.

Reportage for Church Online News

February 08, 2012

A couple of weeks ago I did this reportage for Church Online News (www.churchonlinenews.com) in South London of the ordination of four new Pastors at Vision for Zion Ministries Church.  I love attending these kind of events as it lifts my spirit and is always unpredictable!
