A staggering heart-breaking blog of breath-taking proportions.
Delves deep into the English psyche.
Manages to combine the monochromatic and the colourful in one heady mix.
I have not been better entertained all year.
Bittersweet, sensual, ingenious, tender.
A cracking read. If you read only one blog all year make sure this it.
This magical blog will completely transform your life.
A whirlwind roller-coaster.
A thesaurus for the imagination. A pixellated journey through the Elysian backwaters of the mind.
Put your feet up, partake of your favourite indulgence and wallow in this now. Entertainment of the highest order.
(That's enough over-indulgence. Ed.)
cont. p94.

Caution. This blog may contain scarecrows.:eek:.

What a nice and interesting article. Well done Tim - and Jono.

BTW, Jono (since you'll probably read this thread), something that I noticed in your own introductory text:

I only use Photoshop these days for correcting lens distortion.
Since you're an Aperture user, have you tried or considered a plugin called PTLens? It works pretty well with the camera and lens combinations that are in the database, and quite a few are.

Hi There - thanks for the kind words. . . . but the point, didn't Tim write it beautifully? - the transition from personal to landscape, and such sweet writing.

I'm afraid I'm basking in his reflected glory - but hey! nice for a day or so :)

all the best

Actually, I think the scarecrow using the CD as a frisbee deserves all the credit....

Congrats, Jono, well-deserved!

Chris . . I quite agree, but the scarecrow is a tragedy . . . well, kind of - over two or three years they got better and better, it turned out that the farmer's wife had made them. We presented them with an album of photos . . .. and there was never another one :cry::cry:

What utter tosh, Jono, the reverse is true!

Thanks for the kind words everyone... Jono and his work are easy to write about, and enjoyable too...

Hi There
Tim - have a fantastic holiday - we're off in the morning tomorrow until the 19th. I can't wait!

Thanks everyone else for the kind words . . . All I can say is that I'm very lucky to have someone writing so coherently and elegantly about my humble snaps!

all the best

An excellent read indeed, but I noticed this sentence somewhere down the page:

"For telephoto and macro work I've settled on Micro Four Thirds with a couple of Olympus OMD bodies."

Settled? I know you have had the OM-D for several months now, but settled? Nah, come on :ROTFL:

Looks like an excellent article, congrats Jono!
Hopefully I'll have time to read it a little later today ... :)
