Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
I spent the day on Sunday taking photos of the Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon. The Half Marathon didn’t start until 1pm, but I got up early and had hoped to get some photos of the lake as the sun rose. Unfortunately it was shrouded in mist and fog and I couldn’t see anything at sunrise!...
Well done to all those who competing in and completed the Llyn Vyrnwy Half Marathon yesterday. Hope you all managed the times you were aiming for and more importantly enjoyed yourselves. My photos are now online ready for all to see: Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon Photos 2009 Here are a few as a taster, but...
I got up early this morning and whilst messing around with my camera before my little photo assignment at the Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon tomorrow I snapped this photo.

As part of my ‘getting back into photography’ effort I’ve been meaning to photograph a mountain biking event for a while now. I quite like the idea of having a particular ‘assignment’ rather than just wandering around on a photo-walk and hopefully all of the participants in such an event will want to see photos...
My Snowdonia Enduro Photos are now out ready for all to see. Here are a few as a taster, but the link above takes you to the whole album. They are ordered and titled by rider number so you should be able to find yourself fairly easily. Hope you all had a good time, it...
I’ve set myself a little photo assignment for the weekend and decided to treat myself to a tripod as I’ve been meaning to get one for a while and it will come in handy for this assignment. So, which is the best tripod? Well the whole point of a tripod is to hold the camera...
