Walk out with some old kit the fuji s5 pro and a tamaron adaptall 2 28mm modern lens coatings are amazing but I do like the flare on a classic lens shot straight into a light source

Exiting news! We have a new photographer joining the team sort of. Ok Isobel won't be taking on any paid jobs due to insurance and labour laws plus if it's not a landscape she's not interested but my youngest daughter has shown a real passion and eye for landscape photography and has asked for a "proper camera" for her birthday later in the year this i a picture she took yesterday on her phone

Another location spotted on a drive by and manged a visit yesterday. this little stone chapel on the edge of a field. I had seen from the road that it would make a good picture but I was not prepared for the inside(shots taken through the window). no boards no big padlock on the door but the inside is in great condition I'm sure when I get back to the day job someone from the RE department will have something to say about this place. and finally for contrast a religious site most defiantly in use Mont Saint-Michel there were lots of people there.

so I have officially been rubbish at posting form our trip away in France. ok TBH iv only downloaded the camera once in 2 weeks. But here we have a few from a location I passed the other day and got back to on foot yesterday. like lots of the buildings round here not derelict not abandoned just out of use.

Tin hat on—here goes!
The logo below was AI-generated. Thoughts?

As a creative, I’m skeptical of AI... but I use it. Lightroom’s AI tools make editing faster—things I once did in Photoshop now take seconds.

I treat AI like a wild coworker I work with, not for.
✅ I’ll use AI to assist.
❌ Not to replace real people.
🙏 And I hope no one uses it to replace me.

Would I hire a designer for this logo right now? No.
In the future when things grow? Yes.
For now, AI gave me something better than my scribbles—and if enough of you like it, it might stick!

As for editing:
I won’t outsource retouching unless clients want it, but Lightroom’s AI is a decent helper.

Thanks for reading—AI might clean this post up too 😄
Let me know what you think!

Been trying out a new to me old digital bridge camera while the lumix fz20 won't be winning any ergonomics prizes and the tiny files won't work for wall sized prints I like the challenge of using different kit when I'm on my down time sun came out just in time in scarborough and the train was on time before I had to collect the kids rest assured though the big camera will be back out on Friday catch sidewalk scarborough in action
