A few pics of the Ravensburg / Weingarten / Lindau surrounds. Not feeling very inspired at the moment. It’s hot, hotel room is stuffy, and I’m bored. Woe is me. Hopefully something more enthusiastic will follow soon. I think I’ll go and sample some more German beers. Maybe that will, as Stephen Fry says, “Tickle the muse’s tits”….We’ll have to see.

Before I bought my DSLR, I was always intrigued by macro photography, and the detail in some of the shots I came across on the web. I told myself that this would be the primary focus of my photography should I eventually buy some gear. After shakily finding my feet after the camera purchase, I started investigating macro lenses, settling on the Canon 100mm F2.8 for around R6500 ($1000). Now  [ Read More ]

Durbs cranked on Thursday and Friday (see  http://tinyurl.com/6kvuj2l on the ‘Zag site for some pics and video). Today saw somewhat smaller surf, but there were still some goodies coming through. Set frequency was nothing to write home about, but at least the offshore wind allowed the waves to hold their shape for a while. It’s a pity the wind couldn’t save the waves from the tide change, and the stretches  [ Read More ]
