What is Plan B?
The best-laid plans can go awry. It happens to all of us from time to time. You set off to go somewhere, maybe an hour’s drive away, may be further afield for a photo shoot. It may be a place you’ve been to before and you have some particular images in mind to re-shoot or […]
Taking Chances
Do chances come your way? When was the last time you had a chance to take an unusual image and you missed it? Do you recognize chance, photographically speaking? Most of us like to exist in our comfort zones in many walks of life – we are risk averse. Risk is dangerous – things can […]
What’s the Story?
It is said that the camera never lies. In fact it can tell a cruel version of the truth all too clearly – think of all those images you will have seen of politicians, celebrities or other prominent people papped at their worst: asleep inappropriately, yawning, having a bad hair day, eating a bacon sandwich […]

The Italian View
The classic view of the Matterhorn is the one seen from Zermatt. That is indisputably the iconic view. Today I skied over into Italy and down towards Cervinia on another fantastic blue-sky day. The Matterhorn looks very different from Italy. … Continue reading
On the Piste
A perfect day – blue sky from dawn to dusk. Spent the day with my dSLR round my neck, secured to my chest with the chest straps of my slim-line rucsac. Skiing with dSLR ready for use means skiing at … Continue reading
At One’s Feet
When I return to the same ski area, time and time again, it becomes harder to think of something new to find visually. Strangely the answer might be right in front of me, actually at my feet. Through the long … Continue reading
On Piste Action Photography
My blog has reached a minor milestone today – this is my 250th Post. How many hours of work is that? I dare not think, nor tell my wife! I am a keen skier as those who follow this blog … Continue reading
Skiing with a camera
With a ski trip to Zermatt starting in 3 days time, this seems as good a time as ever to write an article about how I ski with a camera. Hopefully you’ll find a few pearls of wisdom that will … Continue reading
