Taken down the road at SWAM (South Wales Aviation Museum?)

Wanted to shoot these for a while but the car park is always busy so went when closed so it was clear.

Hi Gareth, you really are nailing the shots as of the last year or so .
The improvement is night and day and is telling not just technically but artistically also.
love it and keep going as this is good
Best of luck Flan

Love it. That is a great capture Gareth.

The mono version is perfect.

Getting older and grumpier. Taking longer to decide which lens to use today.

A collection of manual primes to keep me in touch with the pleasures of doing it old-school.

Blimey. The wheels aren't clamped. It's a wonder nobody has nicked it. ....... Seriously, great picture and it shows the value of black and white, in its place, very well.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Well worth it. The BW shot is the star of the pair in my eyes. K.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Be well, stay safe, but most of all, invest in memories

Ah thanks guys!

I blame uni! When I started uni I was focussed around landscape photography. Street worried me and it didn't interest me so much and documentary photography was off my radar. Now I don't shoot nearly any landscapes and I'm shooting genres that I once never did so my photography has done a 180!
