Made a quick 13 second movie at The Mendip Hills today. Haven't made a time-lapse since film in the 1980's!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9IFsiB2yZU&feature=youtu.be

No landscapes, but moo

2 hour walk over the top of The Mendip Hills yesterday, hoping for some good light in amongst all the showers. Unfortunately the only thing that happened between the showers was driving rain and 50mph gusts that were hard to stand up in!
So..., the landscape photographer had to revert to contingency; just shoot something else. Luckily I had good company

I love Cows, as this page hopefully shows: -

A moody sky usually makes for good dusk shots, so I took a quick drive to the local beach. The spring tide was very high, the rain came down but I still managed to get a few good shots before it got too dark at 10:15pm. Weston-super-Mare can even look Mediterranean in the right light!

Devon & Cornwall with the Nikon D800E camera

This new camera is very versatile, and nice and easy to use. You need the very best lenses and good technique to get the best from it though. Any slip-ups look terrible, and I've made quite a few already! A quick trip down to Cornwall is a joy in May/June time - not too busy, but nice warm weather - or so I thought. I headed down in my sandals and shorts, got to Cornwall and quickly changed back into long trousers, socks and a fleece!
