Opinions many, all very much mine!

I like old cameras.
These were all taken with a Canon 40D. None of the lenses used were particularly expensive, and several were forty years old, from the film era.
There is something very satisfying about it all.

Another successful open day in Lincoln.
I've had some great chats with some enthusiastic young folks and their families, and a few of them might choose our medical school. Hope so. I have also borrowed some of their enthusiasm. Hope they don't mind.
I really like this bit of my job.

Had to walk around the edge of King's Mill reservoir to get back to my car.

Playing with cameras and found a few photos from the summer I hadn't transfered off the memory card.
I think this is a Ringlet. Not sure I've photographed on of these before or since. Glad to have found this.
90D, 28mm lens.

It is #Movember. I will be wearing my moustache with pride, like I do the other 11 months.
Movember is about raising awareness about men's cancers and men's mental health.
My mental health isn't sparkling this year, but I know I'm not alone. Solidarity, dudes. We'll get through it together.

"That's no moon. It's a space station."
Clear night tonight. This was taken with a 500mm manual focus Tokina mirror lens from the 1970s, adapted onto my Canon R8.
I used the "loony 11" rule for exposure. It came out about right, ish. F/8, ISO 800, 1/1600s.

Just recorded a talk for a webinar this week.
There was a time I gave a SAS careers talk every couple of weeks. I chalked up 30 one year, which now seems bonkers.
Alternative career pathways still need parity of esteem folks, even if I say it slightly less often than I used to.

I realised I have found a new scene I like to photograph.
These three trees to the right of the horizon provide scale to the skyscapes.
Various cameras and lenses.

The combination of the sunset and the clouds almost looked like fire and smoke tonight.
Every night, a different sky. Stay at home, and you'll miss it.
Nikon D80. Wide end of a cheap lens.

I used to use something called "autostitich".
I quite like doing this too, but the multiple frames has a different aesthetic. Both fun.

I quite like stitching multiple portrait orientation images together to make one big landscape. I do this with film too, but digital is much quicker!
Enjoyed the colours tonight a lot.

Is modern camera equipment "better"? Same scene, different ends of June 2025.
One of these was taken with a Canon 10D from 2003 and 28mm lens from 1987.
The other was taken with a 90D from 2019, and 28mm lens from 2012.
Which is which, folks, and which do you prefer?
I'll give the answer later.

Been baking for the first time in a while.
Checkerboard loaves always look a lot more complicated than they are. Two different doughs, in an alternating pattern.
This one is half white / spelt, half malted.

Greetings from sunny Kirklington, on a sunny autumn day.
I've no idea what this crop is, but there appears to be lots of it. Still loving how this camera makes all colours really loud. It is not subtle.

Continuing the theme of fence posts as tripods, have some night time photography.
The streaks of light are planes from East Midlands Airport, rather than shooting stars, but we can always pretend eh, folks?

Thanks for all the love for these images overnight, folks.
I enjoy that my oldest camera bodies take the photos that get the most affection on here.
Nikon launched the D80 in 2006. It is older than my kids. I enjoy using these clunky boxes to capture the moments.
Here is another.
