The photo shows two of my vintage cameras – they still work but I’ve not used them since 2016, when I switched to my Sony A6300 – and I am very pleased with it, but also take snaps on my iPhone Pro Max, which is surprisingly good.

Photography and photosets

I have taken pictures since 1975 and would describe myself as an enthusiastic amateur.

Lockdown presented an excellent opportunity to scan hundreds of slides and rolls of film dating back to 1975. It will take a while to process and gradually get them ready for viewing, so expect new sets to be added regularly.
