As the title says...it is that here in the UK as we speak....


Just interested in two things.....has anyone made any New Year resolutions regarding their photography....and....anyone have any feelings about how 2013 could be a good year photographically.....either by accident or design!!

To keep it on topic..ref the use of Canon gear.....

I've sold off my 5D2, 580EXII, 135/2, 200/2.8, and 300/4, to pick up a 5D3 and 70-200/2.8II. I did it mostly for an event coming up next month, maybe a couple more later on. So, my 2013 plan is to shoot the living shit out of that event, then start working on building my kit back up.

How about yourself?

Mine is very simple...to get more out of enjoying photography...for less money!!

And..bit of a surprise maybe..to visit the USA.....at my age it is probably about time....

Six or so hrs til 13 arrives...HNY everyone.

Four month countdown for my move to FF begins, the 6D my focus...hoping Ralph will get his first.
As for plans, heal, get back my independence; including driving and shoot everything possible.
Shoot a BIF or two, just to see how lame my AI Servo skills are...thanks for the nudge Peter.
Finish my last rolls of film and sell all my gears that are gathering dust.
Agonise over moving to digital ONLY...decide in 2014
Give my blog the attention it deserves...
Listen to a lot more music.

Seeya next year FMers...Peace

Spectacular fireworks here in London.......pity you people there are so far behind the times!!

But you are probably happy that gear is so much cheaper there....

Resolution: Up my game.

That means more tripod work, more supplemental lighting, more planning, more attention to production values, more care, more work.

I use Canon gear, but the gear is not important for my goal. It's about the internal struggle to not be lazy, among other things.

Happy New Year in a few minutes!

You're not the only one!

Here's hoping for a fruitful year for all.
