I have been interested in photography since very young however I was distracted by video a few times along the way before I realised I really prefer still photography.
The quest for a compact motorcycle travel tripod.

I think this site has three main elements; Travel, Motorcycling and Photography. The later I have not posted so much about. (maybe poor grammar is my fourth element ha-ha) After a 30 year hiatus I am again a Canon user. Last Canon I owned was the EOS 650 back in […]

Read MoreGoPro Hero 5 Session Vs Polaroid Cube
