Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
Our busy weekend continued with a day on the beach (after re-visiting the moth traps set the night before). Morgan and I had a play in the sea, which gave me a chance to get my waterproof camera properly wet. It coped well and considering its size and durability I’m still pretty impressed with the...
If the weather is nice at the weekend, and it looks as though it should be, I might treat myself to a day at Lake Vyrnwy. If possible I’ll get there early and spend the morning taking some photos and wandering around the lake. The Lake Vyrnwy half marathon takes place in the afternoon, so...
Regular readers will know from a previous post that I set my self a little photo assignment a couple of weekends ago to photograph the Snowdonia Enduro Mountain Bike Event. I usually take part in such events myself and always look at the photos of myself that are offered for sale afterwards. Usually the going...
I’ve been meaning to experiment with HDR photography for a while but as with lots of my little projects just haven’t had the time to do so. I also didn’t have a tripod, but now I do, so the other evening I forced myself out to take some photos and give it a go. I...

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...
I always say that the best camera is the one you have with you, and since buying a little Pentax Optio W60 a few weeks ago this has proved to be true. It may not have quite the optics of my Canon SLR or the features and flexibility, but the fact that I can pop...
I haven’t had it long so this isn’t a full review, but my new digital camera arrived the other day so here are my first impressions. After some deliberation over which waterproof digital camera to get I chose a Pentax Optio W60 as a second, go anywhere camera to compliment my Canon EOS 450D SLR...
Finding the perfect camera can be a nightmare, but I’ve now come to the conclusion that there isn’t one camera that suits all circumstances. Which, of course, means that it is time to buy another camera! Well, you can’t have too many gadgets can you! I know it wasn’t that long ago that I bought...
