BLOG A More Continental Look Ok, so this is in the middle of Worcester but you have to agree, it doesn’t look it.
BLOG Steampunk Fayre Pictures taken from Worcester’s first Steampunk Fayre at the Commandery. It was full of strange curious things and people wearing some fantastic costumes. I hope there was enough interest to do another one next year.
BLOG Worcester Commandery Just a couple of photos taken at Worcester Commandery. It’s one of those tourist attractions that you never go to because its on your doorstep.
BLOG Isles of Scilly A few months back, we visited St. Mary’s, one of the Isles of Scilly. I enjoyed it so much, I’d like to spend a week there and explore the other islands.
BLOG Freedom I know there’s a good amount of things wrong in this picture but I just like the serenity but also sense of impending adventure.
BLOG Spires and Coffee I bought some new filters for the PEN camera the other day. It was a set of neutral density filters and a holder from Cokin. I didn’t take these with them but I thought I’d upload them anyway as the weather was so nice. And a Fairtrade mocha,
BLOG My Little Friend! When looking at garden power tools, I really want to go for something that will leave a trail of destruction behind it, hence the motivation for this fine product. I call this fine specimen from Bosch, Hercules the Hedgecutter. Let all perish that stands before it. Say hello, to my

BLOG The More Rock'n'Roll Scott “I’m classical, he’s more rock’n’roll than me” said Ridley Scott once about his younger brother, Tony. I was shocked this morning to discover that Tony Scott has died, likely to be suicide. I always thought of Tony as being the high octane version of Ridley with

BLOG DLSR Mashup With Raspberry PI DSLR gets dollop of Raspberry Pi for future home-baked camera accessories http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/18/dslr-raspberry-pi-battery-grip/ I saw this and initially thought that there is no point in me looking at it since it didn’t relate to my camera gear, but then I looked again and
BLOG It's Nature And It's All Over Me! A couple of weeks ago, we visited the Butterfly Farm in Stratford-upon-Avon. The site basically has a mix of vegetation and the butterflies simply live in the space, munching on salads and landing on people.

BLOG Kidderminster Video So following our Kidderminster Film Roadshow, Alan has created a trailer to summarise the day. He filmed this with his trusty Panasonic GH2 and it really does look quite stunning in HD. The room was dark, but there’s very grain.
BLOG Kidderminster Film Roadshow Our event in Kidderminster was unique in our series of roadshows in that it took place in two venues. We held our cinema heritage project in St George’s Church and the film screenings and workshops at the Boars Head. It was also a part of Kidderminster Arts Festival. At
