    Expedition Snaps

    Hello! I've recently returned from another little expedition and would like to have some of the images printed up 'properly' to mount on walls at home, in the office and to give away as gifts to sponsors etc. Being a little new to all of this, I'm looking for advice on which method of...

    Exploring Photography!

    Hi Guys! PLease excuse my lack of involvement on the forum; I've been a little tied up with trips. I did take some of the advice offered on the page about camera choice etc and decided to stick with a digital compact - at least for the time being. I've just got back from another little...

    UPDATE! Someone has actually BOUGHT a picture that I posted on 500px - now that does feel rather odd!

    2660 Miles of Photographs!

    What a fantastic project! The story and the images are brilliant but I have to agree that for the general public two hours is far too long. I for one have the attention span of a gnat, but on the other hand I can drop back in to the vid whenever I want and start playing at different points as...

    Thanks for the feedback Mike - much apprecaited. I totally agree with finding out a little more that the camera can do so I'm about to download the manual (I hate manuals!). There is a self-timer mode on the camera, but what do you see as it's key use other than taking shots of my own ugly...

    Exploring Photography!

    About two years ago I was recommended to 500px and every so often I put a snap up there. Technically they aren't brilliant and the shots have been taking with really cheap cameras, compacts, phones and a GoPro. http://500px.com/justforthechallenge

    Hey Mike! Thanks for the reply - brilliant! I think your reply concisely sums up other peoples view in that capturing the image and getting used to framing a shot etc is far more important than the capability and functionality of the camera. Taking everyone's opinions and suggestions in...

    Hey Chaps and Chapesses! As a total novice I've got so many questions that it's difficult to know where to start so please excuse any garbled and waffled posts that I may put up! I run a project for primary schools which takes my experiences as an 'explorer/adventurer' and turns them in to...

    Waterproof Camera Covers

    Hello! I'm no expert on the 'bigger stuff', but I always use Aquapac for keeping my electronics clean and dry on expeditions and they've always proven to be brilliant. I know they have camera covers, but that's where my knowledge ends I'm afraid
