I'm delighted to have a camera again and this one is a beauty.
I just hope I can develop the skills to do it justice.
Photos coming soon.

..... for my new camera.

I haven't taken any pictures in a couple of months and I'm getting serious withdrawal symptoms.

Come on Leica.

Today is the first day of my new website. YIPEE! Hope you like it.

I haven't been doing any photography of late as I have sold all (yes - all) of my photography gear. I was using Nikon D3 and had a good selection of lenses, but my recent success/failure (whichever way you decide to look at it) in making the semi-finals of the Nikon/PM UK's Best Photographer (I never liked the title) has caused me to re-evaluate what it is I'm doing. I decided that I would go back to basics and get myself a rangefinder and a few manual focus prime lenses so that I can concentrate more on my favorite subject - people. Hopefully I will have a new camera in a month or two or three depending on how soon Leica can manufacture them. There is something of a waiting list at the mo.

This was my entry for the semi-final. The task was to produce 3 images on the theme 'My Hometown' and present them in a creative way. I made them into a DVD, but also made them available here on Youtube.

I have also been fortunate enough to make the final stages of the Digital Camera Photographer of the Year 2009. I'm in the 'World in Motion' section - Last image on this page.

The main page is here - http://www.photoradar.com/news/story/digital-camera-photographer-of-the-year-shortlist-announced

Don't think I'll win somehow. The standard is very high and there are some awesome images in there.

Thanks for checking in and hope you come back soon.

Cheers
Bob
