Stepping back in time at Chromefest at The Entrance. A spot where my parents would take us for holidays.

Went to Sculpture by the Sea yesterday with my Canon EOS R + the 35mm lens, three charged batteries and.......... no memory card. No spare either, because I didn’t take my usual bag. Amateur-professional, apparently.

So I had two choices: go and buy a card, or see what I could do with the phone. I chose the phone. As they say the best camera is 'the one in your hand'

I wasn’t after the sculptures on their own anyway. The organisers’ photos make some pieces look enormous when in real life they’re knee high. I wanted the sculpture in its spot, with the people around it: the hats, the phones, the queue for Keizo Ushio’s granite ring, two blokes in bucket hats blocking Tim Storrier’s Wayfarer.

Honest take: it’s a quieter year. Fewer big pieces that stop you in your tracks. Still worth the walk, go midweek, and check your card before you leave the house.

Full set and a few tips on my website.

RIP Sox. It was a pleasure to take photos of Sox for Suzanne. Sadly he passed away a few days after the photo shoot. Sox was a companion dog and spent 15 years of his life helping Suzanne manage life after her husband had a stroke.

We took photos in his favourite spots to sit in the house and took him across the road to 'his' park by the water. You couldn't tell that he was sick, his tail wagged and off he trotted in and out of the bushes, along the path all the while keeping an eye out to protect Suzanne.

His bright demeanor hid the internal demons ranging in his body with his lungs constantly filling with water. The vet wasn't sure how long he had & there was no cure for his ailments either, it was just a waiting game but Suzanne wanted photos to remember him by.

It was only days after the photo shoot did I get the sms from Suzanne to say Sox has passed peacefully, his time had come.

This is what Suzanne said "Paul was fantastic with Sox and his photos are a priceless momento of our beautiful mate x Paul was kind, thoughtful and creative . His professionalism and attention to detail was wonderful. I would absolutely recommend Paul and La Lente to photograph your loved one any time x"

Quiet, tranquil places in Bangkok, away from the hustle.

Exploring the temples in Bangkok Thailand.

22/09/2026

I got told my quite a few people that Bangkok wasn't worth visiting, its just a busy, crowded city. There is no denying it is a big city with a large sprawl and quite a feeling of hustle and bustle. Although once you explore a little further beyond the glitzy shopping malls you find layers of colour, character and the quiet life that locals enjoy day to day.

That colour is seen through the ancient temple complexes, the statues, the clothing, its food, the architecture, scooters and even the street art in places like Talat Noi.

I get the feeling its maybe something people don't notice or see
