29 Aug Dignity And Impudence
I'm sorry Folks. I just couldn't resist it - the title of Sir Edwin Landseer's painting just leapt to mind when I saw the Fujifilm and Olympus cameras side by side on a product table at the Murray Street shop. I know, I know...
28 Aug The Silver Queens
Is it just me or has the camera market rediscovered the chrome camera body? As a young photographer I lusted after a blue camera. After saving up for 4 months I sent away for one...
27 Aug King Of The Urban Jungle
Well, the box was plain enough. No trumpeting the contents there. But unwind the ribbon and lift the lid...

14 Aug Wandering With Wandrd
My weekly wander and wonder through Stirling Street was rewarded with the Wandrd backpack. It instantly attracted me with the fact that there is a variety of colours on offer. Black, dark green, and the blue you see here. Colour is a little thing for some...
13 Aug Plus Me Up, Scotty
