Playing with the One Spot Colour option on my Lumix TZ90 on Southend Pier yesterday - though, given the overcast nature of the weather, I could probably have got the same look just shooting in colour!

I’ve had this Olympus XA for a long while now, but I lost it in my house and have been looking for it. Last night, I found it - it had somehow got under my armchair (I can only assume I knocked it off my side table and forgot about it.

It’s been a little while since I posted some older pictures, so here are four from #irphotography shots from Greece in 2024. All taken on a home converted Lumix TZ20 compact camera (now, alas, deceased) and edited in Snapseed

Not sure what this plant is called - I got it in the local Lidl in the spring as a ‘bee and butterfly friendly plant’. It’s been flowering since I planted it, but it’s really come on strong in the cooler weather (when the bees and butterflies are not around!)

Bargain lunch! The Marmite added a nice touch to the cheese. M&S has a bit of a thing with Marmite - I had the Cauliflower Cheese with Marmite yesterday and it was rather good. Marmite and cheddar go together well.

As I’m starting to head out a little further (hopefully to improve mobility in the right leg), here are some new pictures from Southend yesterday - taken on my Lumix LX7.

Here’s another batch of past pictures, this time from my mini-break to Newcastle, and taken on various cameras (the b&w ones are from my IR converted Lumix G3)

In case anyone was wondering why I’m posting old pictures I’ve taken - I’ve been laid up with a broken ankle for the last couple of months, and haven’t been out with any of my cameras for quite a while, so I’m posting some of the least worst pictures I’ve taken until I can get out there again.

I’m posting a few more pictures from my many and various photographic devices. These were taken at the Geevor Tin Mine in Cornwall back in 2021 on
My LUMIX GX9 using the 12-32mm ‘pancake’ lens.

Another day, another selection of my old pictures! Taken on a variety of cameras; the sparrow on a Lumix TZ60, Hadleigh Castle in an IR-converted Lumix TZ20, Brandi Clark on my iPhone 12PM, and the blossom on my Lumix TZ90.

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night! Another few pictures from my various trips out with an assortment of cameras. This time, one of my favourite film cameras, an Olympus is-3000, using Kentmere 400. Basildon town centre.

I have paused my Disney+ subscription. If they restore Jimmy Kimmel and his entire staff, I’ll restore the subscription; if not, I’ll cancel it.
Paramount is an annual subscription, but that’s getting cancelled, regardless of how much Star Trek I haven’t got to yet.

In a former life, I hosted a podcast about the world of non-sport trading cards (called U.K. CardCast).
A couple of years ago, I revived it as a YouTube channel, releasing a couple of short videos about one card per episode, entitled “One Card At A Time”.

Bored sitting around with a broken ankle, so started to take pictures of stuff around the house on my LX7.

The slow, long term, conversion of the front patch of overgrowth is ongoing. Shane about the wasp nest in the tree stump…
