Hooray! We made it through 2020!

I’ll take a simple photo of a bank statement and question the quality of window light. The list goes on. Continue Reading

Capturing Street Photography at The Barbican in London

With the arrival of my new Sony 35mm f1.8 I felt the immediate urge to head out for some street photography to give it a little run for its money. I decided to head over to what I consider one of the best street photography locations in London. The Barbican.  I couldn’t wait to check out the amazing brutalist architecture this location has to offer. Continue Reading
