  1. Scottish Sunset: Mountain Peaks from Neilston

    The light nights are here! The kids are in bed and I still have daylight to play with. Tonight, I decided to nip out with my camera.

    Knowing when to let go of a product you love is never an easy decision, especially when it comes to something as personal and important as photography gear.

    Some shots from September 2022 to January 2023 shot on my Ricoh 500 G with Fujifilm C200.

    Breathing new life into an old iPod Classic with Rockbox is a great way to give your old device a new lease on life.
