Hello there!

I was looking around on the internet for photography inspiration and felt there was a certain lack of sites offering that help...so I figured if anyone can do it, I sure can, this blog isn't aimed at high flyers in the photography world, so don't expect anything grand, this blog is for amateurs, people who do photography as a hobby and don't take it that seriously.


I use a Olympus E410 DSLR, with a standard 14 to 42mm lens and a 40-150mm telephoto lens since March 2012, and before I had a Fugi Finepix. I started getting into photography about a two years ago, and when I saw a good photography opportunity I would take it, more recently I've taken a keen interest in it, and now actively go out looking for photos, and where ever I go, just about, my camera comes with me!


There's a brief history of my photography hobby, I didn't want to bore you to much...I hope this blog provides the inspiration you are looking for!

Nude Doll

This photo came from me looking around my room, finding the odd toy here and there
and putting them together, making a pretty funny photo, of a nude doll chasing "Lego" men,
this gave me great ideas for what else I could do, for example, the photo of my Pirate
in the bird bath. You could create a whole world for the Lego men or the nude doll!
Taken using a standard lens (14-42mm) 

Eye eyes

This photo was taken with my standard lens and a 10x macro filter
I bought, as I can't afford to splash out on a new macro lens,
these are a great option to go for. They come in a pack of four, 1x, 2x
4x and 10x, they all screw together as well, (That's if you're buying Polaroid Macro filters,
these can be viewed by clicking here)  but then the edge of the photo
becomes blury, and degrades the photo, but they are a great substitute for
an expensive macro lens.

Pirates

This photo I felt added a sense of humour to the photo,
great if you're in need of some fun!! This was done simply
using a water, a boat, and a figure. By adding a toy to something
boring, like a bird bath, gives you a whole load more possible
shots to do, maybe a figure hiking through grass? Or
a lego figure comfronting a snail?! The possibilities are endless!
