The Big Smoke
Continuing with the photography theme. I recently took a trip to London, with the main aim of taking a few photos.
I ended up shooting more for the memories than to nail a really good photo, so I was struggling for a pick of the bunch, but finally settled on this:

I also shot in RAW for the first time (as well as JPG) so I have these stored to play with when I finally get round to buying Aperture!
I’ve also set my sights on my next lens, the well regarded Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7. Definitely the next item on my camera shopping list!
Also….2 posts in a day, getting in to this writing lark! I might write more about the trip itself in another blog post.
Making a start
Making a start on one of my aims for the year, yesterday I visited Croxden Abbey to take some photographs.
I took over a hundered photos and was pretty impressed with most of them, being the first time I’d shot with anything better than a point & shoot or my iPhone 4.
This is my favourite shot.

Quite happy with my first real shoot, a lot still to learn, but at least I’ve made a start…
