I would never have guessed that an artichoke flower would look like this! I’d love to see a field of these all in bloom.

The more I use the Tamron 18-250mm on my Samsung GX-10 the more I like it…

Picture #54 – Collioure and those three boats
Posted in Photography, Photos, Samsung GX-10 on June 21, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
This is just another picture of the Notre-Dame-des-Anges church in Collioure (South France) but it’s got those three boats in the foreground. If you’ve been to this area I think you’ll know what I mean. Every artist in the area seems to have painted views of Collioure and most of those have three brightly coloured [...]
Picture #53 – Red sky at night

I went to close my curtains last night at about 9:45pm and noticed that there was an incredible sunset taking place. It was fast disappearing so I grabbed my camera and ran up the road to where I thought I could get a decent shot. I didn’t have time for a tripod so I used [...]
Picture #52 – Lechwe Antelope

I’d like to say that I tracked this antelope across the plains of Africa but it was actually taken at Newquay Zoo in Cornwall. It’s another one using the Tamron 18-250mm – I don’t think this lens will be off my camera very often.

Here’s the first posted picture taken with my new Tamron 18-250mm zoom lens. I used the lens for the first time last weekend and so far so good. It’s quite a bit bigger around than the kit 50-200mm lens and feels a bit heavier but as a walkabout lens I think it’s going to be [...]
Picture #50 – Collioure boat carved in stone

Collioure is one of my favourite places when we visit the south of France. It’s incredibly scenic and I could spend hours there taking photographs. There must be countless photos taken of the Notre-Dame-des-Anges church which is a converted lighthouse. This one is a little bit different as in the foreground is a boat carved [...]
Samsung GX-10 – I need a walkabout lens
Posted in Photography, Samsung GX-10 on June 5, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I’ve not posted for a few weeks because of a combination of too much work and a very pleasant 2 week holiday in France. The holiday in France has convinced me that I need a walkabout lens with a bigger zoom range. Unfortunately neither of the 2 kit lenses, the 18-55mm and 50-200mm, are suitable.
I [...]
