Caldecott Lake
Milton Keynes, 21st October 2018, Ricoh R1 using expired Kodak BW400CN film. Why post a picture like this? Big light leak on the right, processing mess, blur, lack of detail. But…I do think there is something that all that noise is giving back to the image. It was a very bright autumn day, where it […]
The Cardigan
My friend sent me this video of Imogen Heap demonstrating her musical gloves This is a good video and definitely worth watching all the way through. However, I remember Marillion doing something similar many years earlier, and so I looked that up on YouTube and sent that clip back to him for discussion. My mate […]

Some Boss MG-10 facts
From what I can tell, I get a fair few hits on this site from people wanting to know more about the Boss MG-10 amplifier, and since I have had one since they came out in 1989 (and now have three) I thought I’d post about what I know about the amp, starting with some […]
A Strange Collection Of Nostalgia…
…Which probably won’t mean anything to anyone else in this particular clustering. The Ladybird books factory Crazy by Icehouse Auf Wiedersehen Pet Walking home down Robin Hood’s Walk A Walk In The Black Forest Wytham Woods in autumn ’95 Cherry boiled sweets As I put this post together it seemed silly to just list these […]
Just Whatever It Is Right Now
Thinking about this time last year My neighbours bought an expensive new patio table But I don’t see them sitting in the garden much these days I still find myself thinking of you (and You, and yOu and, yes, yoU too) But mostly the thoughts are different now I thought I would be already doing […]
Cassette Minaret
It’s raining and I have the day off work. I am trying to make sense of this lot. I always knew I “kept all my tapes” but it has been a long time since I have dealt with them and making sense of all of these cassettes is quite something. There is the content for […]

Notes From An Evening Bike Ride, August 13th 2019
There would be plenty of evening left If it were not for this heavy cloud Going down the big hill Starting to get faster Brakes work Never done this before Oh my god! Thankfully there are no cars about! My face is itchy but I’m not taking my hands off the handlebars. That was fast! […]
Photo Chat Vlog, checking in, Konica Big Mini, double exposures and expired film
I wanted to check in and do a little update on some of my photography activity, because we’re getting over halfway through the year now and though you haven’t seen much here, lots has been going on. I’ve been shooting quite a lot of film, and I started off the year digging out an old […]
Wine Gummies No More
At 10p per roll, Swizzels Wine Gummies were a favourite of mine. Reminiscent of corner shop sweeties of yore, they were an almost-guilt-free lunchtime treat and just the thing to brighten a bleak mid-day hour out of the office. Earlier in the year I noticed they were missing from my regular near-work-supermarket, and figured it […]
Photo Chat Vlog – Pentax Espio and Olympus Accura
It would seem the last few videos on Photo Chat Vlog that have been a bit more philosophical have not been quite so popular, so let’s see if we can get some of our mojo back with some hard talk about pure camera facts. A couple of years ago I did an A and B […]
