Photography & General Ramblings…
Turning of the Tide, Sidmouth
Nikon D600, NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8 Ai-S, 10s, f8, ISO 100
What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
12 years ago it was this seascape at Sidmouth in Devon, using (I think) an ND 3.0 (10-stop) filter to lengthen the exposure time.
Editing this pic in Lightroom reminded me (again) of how dirty the sensor on the D600 used to get… definitely the worst camera I’ve ever owned for that!

This is definitely at Panther (made by Phelon & Moore in Cleckheaton, Yorkshire) and I believe it’s a 1961 650cc Model 120.

We spent a very enjoyable week in East Lothian in September, staying a two minute stroll from Port Seton Harbour. We had a wander down there every day, sometimes to beachcomb, sometimes for fish & chips…

British Railways 16-ton Mineral Wagon

This former British Railways (BR) 16-ton mineral wagon is on display at the Prestongrange Museum in East Lothian.
Prestongrange Museum was originally founded as the National Mining Museum Scotland (now sited at Newtongrange in Midlothian) but is now dedicated to the area’s other once significant but vanished industries – salt boiling, chemical synthesis, soap making, glass making, potteries, industrial ceramics and bricks. It’s well worth a visit!

I’ve not felt like blogging much of late… or photography… or pretty much anything else really but as we approach the end of the year I’m doing my best to motivate myself to get out and about more.
Spending just a bit of time outdoors with a camera does wonders for my mental wellbeing, I just need a push to get me going again…
