A Day at the Fair…….

I was testing out my new Sigma 30mm f1.4 and went down Porthcawl on a nice sunny day where I saw this couple sitting in the middle of the fairground. I took a few quick snaps but they looked so interesting I asked if I could take their portrait, they were shocked that someone wanted to take their picture but duly obliged.

Old School……….

I took part in the Cardiff Photomarathon event on Saturday and as well as attempting to take photographs of the topics provided I also tried to take some candid street shots.

I met a photographer using a film camera to document a “Naked Cycle Ride” through the Cardiff streets, we had a brief chat about the pros and cons of Digital versus Film before we were swamped with loads of Bicycles.
