I love square pictures
These are 33x33 printed on A3+ paper
Dr Johnson who lived in the very same square
The sculptor posed him seated as he was a man of words, not war
A disc insulator from a high voltage electricity pylon in the morning sun

The frame is wood with PVC not glass
The frame cost €18 and the print under €2

Alien snapped in Paris streets.
A strange figure was noticed in the streets around St. Germain des Près today. Over 7 feet tall and moving briskly, one coffee drinker got a snap of it (see picture). Last seen arguing for a discount in Muji.

I have a new printer that can do gallery grade prints up to 13" x 19" for €1.50 a print!
I dumped the execrable and utterly shitty HP OfficeJet for the Epson ET-8550.
ET means Eco Tank, so ink costs plummet...
HP: €3000/litre
Epson: €140/litre
I now have ink in tanks not cartridges! 😋

Photography is about controlling your camera
Yet letting the picture kinda take itself
Trust the mistakes!
Over-exposure needs to be managed
A setting sun reflected in the sea?
Forget about it...
Just let it swamp the pic of the fisherman about to cast his line

I went to the park to take pictures of a friend
When I got home, I had four unexpected white frames
I crushed the exposure by 5 stops to extract these images
They are random art, no?
I didn't take them; my thumb did...

"Aretha Franklin: Soul Sister"
It was directed by France Swimberge for ARTE, the French/German channel. I think we worked on it in 2019.

I do try to engage back with everyone, and there’s a special core who keeps returning... you know who you are!

It's curious, the details in a photo that emerge are often surprising. The fingers on their left hand look strange, and the dog-with-log seems to be missing a leg. The wonders of a 1/20s exposure!.

Rivulet reflections on sunset beach.
This feels like it could be a huge river delta at sunset, yet it is barely 2 metres across.

OK, last sunset pic... promise! This is what you get after the tide goes out. Rivulets carved into the sand that reflect the sunset sky.

Although I'm loath to dispute you, Bombo, there is another...
Meet the goat's cheese and hot pepper crisp. It can strip the inside of your mouth in moments and actually has a government health warning on the packet.

A sailing boat at sunset from Bare Bum Beach near Hossegor on the south-west coast of France. I waited until the mast and sails cut the clouds in half. Not sure quite why but it seems to work.

In France, Christmas is mostly celebrated on the 24th or le Réveillon. Yesterday, we were five for dinner. We ate a delicious meal and drank and laughed a lot.

This morning, I took this picture with my new Laowa 12mm autofocus.
I gestured to these Chinese tourists that I wanted to take a group picture. They happily obliged.
I'm trying out the Laowa 12mm as a street lens. Keep people in the middle you get loads of background info.

Took this with my Laowa 12mm. I recently had an exchange with someone on my timeline about autofocus. He said that with a 12mm the depth of field is such that autofocus is redundant. I disagree. If a subject comes close, the background goes soft. Not so here, though
