Google Plus: A (very) short review
In short, bye bye Facebook I have pretty much stopped using Facebook since Google+ came out and I am quite happy about this change in the social networking landscape.

Pentax Film SLR’s
I decided today to dig out my old Pentax K1000 for an upcoming photo stroll and thought it a good opportunity to take some pix of all my old film SLR’s. My Dad gave me this camera, which was his backup camera, many years ago. So long ago that I don’t actually recall when. I [...]

My Reading List
My photographic reading list is starting to pile up (and has been for quite some time). One might think that having an Apple iPad might make it easier to knock out the ebooks at least, but fiction has taken precedence. Here is what is on my list to read (in no particular order): Within The [...]

My First Time Lapse Video
I’ve recently took a trip to Berlin and I took my tripod this time to work on some techniques that you really cannot do with just a hand held camera (or a monopod). This time lapse video was shot with my Nikon D700 using the built in intervalometer and shooting 1 frame every second for [...]
