Photography Show


 At the Photography show at the Excel in London. My wife decided to buy a very simple camera with no viewfinder or screen. I bought a Boat Hook and tripod. Saw quite a few things I would like especially the VR camera from Canon.

Beginner set up


 One of the best features of the Wersi organ is the ability to display the sheet music on the organ and scroll up and down using a button press—using a pedal switch. We can also add an MP3 file to play along with—great for my wife's learning.

Fake drone shot


 The Insta360 Ace Pro is on a light jib, ready to create some fake drone shots as we prepare to fly it alongside the sailing dinghy on the River Thames, creating a unique shot looking into the boat as we sail along the river.

Cleaning the guttering


 A good job done, now we have had a few fine days - cleaning out the guttering. We tried mesh to see if it would help - if works for the leaves but not all the soil. So its time to remove it.

Online teaching

My online teaching takes many forms – from using a Wacom tablet in front of the camera to conducting hands-on experiments in the lab. Whether it’s working with a visualizer or a multi-camera setup, I ensure students can see everything happening in real-time!
