My wife decided that on Easter Sunday we should have a family reunion with her sister's family who live to the west of Aberdeen (just over a 100 miles from Kinross) and that was just the excuse that I needed for another long run on the bike, it also meant that there was a spare seat in our car...

My intention was to go out on Monday to take some photos of a different kind but circumstances dictated, well the wife dictated that I go out for a run on my bike on Sunday rather than Monday. (Just as well that I did as it rained for most of the day on Monday.) Where to go. East Fortune and the...

I took the opportunity to go for a long run on the Beemer today. My intention was to visit one of my favourite museums at Dumfries then go over to the museum at Carlisle before returning home. All in all something just over 200 miles for the round trip, but first I had to make a stop at Lockerbie. ...

The over used and cliched use of Henri Cartier-Bresson's photographic style, however it almost sums up when went on yesterday. I went up to Dundee to collect my daughter from her student accommodation and was killing time at the airport waiting on her getting ready when a based Cherokee...

Following the passing of my Mother, the year before last, I decided that life really was too short and life was for the living. I have always wanted a motorbike so at 50 years old I borrowed a Honda CG125W off my Brother in Law and went through all the hoops to gain my full motorbike license;...

I believe the vast majority of photographers use a version of Photoshop whether it is CS or Elements, so if your photo editor does not have the Levels palate or a histogram then you'll not know what I am on about. Back in the days of steam cameras without built in light metres, a bunch of...

I'm posting this on the behalf of the AP-crew to keep you up to date with the changes that we are making in the screening process. Previously a screener, who is a full member could open an image for screening and he would have ten minutes to check the information, add any additional...

I met a friend at Scone yesterday who was patiently waiting for the weather to lift in the English Midlands so he could deliver his Robin to it's new owner in the SW of England. To cut a long story short by the time that I had got around to taking a photo of his aircraft, the sun which was...

.... and got my first low-flying picture. Spent all day on the hill, got frozen to the bone, got blasted by a snow shower and only one tonka to show for my efforts. Great, I can't wait to go back again! Please note, going up unto the hills is dangerous, especially in winter...

I've always been keen to try something different and to learn something new so the challenge of HDR photography was right down my street. With digital photography, when we meter on a subject all we do is get the exposure right for the aircraft itself, there is nothing wrong in that except...
