In November 2005 I visited New York City for a photography trip with my 35mm film camera. I have scanned the negatives and reprocessed some of the photos I took.
August 10th 2008, I went to Loton Park near Shrewsbury for the hillclimb event, graced with a lovely sunny day, I took my newly bought first DSLR camera, a Canon 400D, with 28-55mm and a 75-300mm lenses.
