Things have been a little quiet here of late, I’ve not had much enthusiasm for photography, or anything else really… But we’re now approaching my favourite time of the year, autumn, and hopefully that will make me feel a bit more enthusiastic and productive!

Anyway… here’s another image from a trip to Calke Abbey last August.

Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8, Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter and Negative Lab Pro plugin with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

An image from a trip to Calke Abbey last August, an image I wasn’t confident about at all… hand-holding the camera at 1/30th second with the lens wide open at f/3.5!

An image snapped while waiting for one of Coffee Boo’s delicious burritos to arrive one lunchtime a couple of months ago… The reflection in the table top caught my eye.

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

17 years ago it was cyclists at the National Cycling Centre in Manchester during a Nikon ‘Solutions’ event…

These images certainly highlight how poor my panning technique was but I remember it being a fun day out nonetheless!
