Photography Blog
Photo Diaries, News and Reviews
Alongside making images, I have written a number of blogs about the process of photography. In many cases, my blogs are a visual diary of my journey in photography; maybe it’s a record of a particular trip or morning out with the camera or an update on what I’ve been up to. It also extends to include technical articles and reviews, all of which I hope you find useful in some way.

CINESTILL 800T IN NORTHERN FINLAND
On a recent trip to Northern Finland, I decided to shoot a roll of 35mm Cinestill 800T. Although the film is tungsten balanced, I decided against using a warming filter because I thought the films white balance would complement the snow and blue skies.
