Indecisive describes me best at the moment. i have like a fucking million photos on here so if u look through them u will, get a idea of who i am.

 

I Love Digital photography and i Love film its fiddy fiddy for me but i am getting back into film at the moment.

 

i use flicker to store all my photos as i have had a few accidents in the past so there is about 98% junk on here that is only relevant to me and i would say 2% that i would be willing to say was me being serious about photography

 

I develop my own film and my worst habit is that i over potatoshop everything.

 

My cameras are as follows -

 

Canon G7 - great tiny metal clad workhorse to keep with me at all times.

 

Canon 400D - got it brand new the day it came out - it has been round the world with me - taken photos of everest - been in a -30c snowstorm in mongolia and cycled round the south of taiwan - i have droped it more times than i would like to admit and it is scratched and worn to fuck but i love it soooo much i will never get rid of it.

 

Kit list for my Canon

 

Canon BG-E3 Battery Grip - i spent two and a half months in Russia Mongolia and China before i had to replace the two batteries in this baby and the extra controls and weight/size make the camera way more ergonomic

 

-Canon 18-200 IS a true all-rounder - a great lens to take on a trip where you need to take as little as possible - it has bad barrel roll but its easily corrected and it covers loads of the range and has a lovely large 72mm end to gather up loads of light and the "is" works a treat - a total bargain from Mongkok towers in HongKong

 

-Canon 50mm 1.8 prime lens - met a guy on a boat in china who had it and i got one after having a go- its build quality is shit but it takes great photos and was dirt cheap from Singapore.

 

-sigma 70-300 - pretty pointless apart from when i was in the Gobi desert i got some great shots of wildlife - then in Vietnam dropped my laptop and lost all the photos - the only set i had not backed up to flicker!!!

 

-sigma 18-50 - the lens i take into nightclubs - great lens cheap and strong and i have got some great shots from it - sounds a bit grainy now it focus's tho - think i got some sand in it.

 

Brownie - circa 1914 - i have edited it a little to take 120 film and put a few masks in it and flocked it but it takes some good photos so far. only picked it up a few days ago so have only done one roll of 120 nfilm so far

 

Two Holga 120 GCFN's

fully modded with aperture fixes, flocking ,new tripod mounts,bulb time exposure fix etc - one is modded with masks to shoot 35mm full frame and the other is just for 120 fim.

 

And the camera that game me a passion for photography in the first place -

 

ZENIT 11 with a Helios 44mm lens - whole camera made from brass - fully manual no batteries etc just a shit light-meeter and Russian language gauges - but it takes ace photos and its a real workhorse
