A trip to the wet ‘n’ windy coast. I love this shot, the coat is the perfect colour for this kind of processing, it’s so easy to pick out, especially in such damp, grey weather!

Retro Camera

I have had this for a while now and have meaning to write about it since I got it so here goes….

I am loving this Retro Camera app on to my HTC Desire Android phone. The app comes with 5 preset settings: The Bärbl, Little Orange Box, Xolaroid 2000, Pinhole Camera and the more recently added FudgeCam. My favourite, as you can see, has to be the Pinhole Camera. There are other similar apps out there producing similar styles of photo but I have not yet found another one with a ‘pinhole’ mode and none of the others I have tried have the same retro appearance about them. The only negative about it for me is the lengthy ‘developing’ time that it has before you can view your shot, when I first installed the app this was brief but has got longer since more recent updates.

Dyserth Falls

Taken on our Easter break in North Wales. I’ve been wanting to capture a waterfall for a while now and couldn’t pass up the opportunity when we stumbled across these falls not far from our holiday home.

Taken in the evening as the tide is coming in and the sun is setting out of shot to the left, creating the lovely red/orange glow along the sky and groynes.
