I am going to hazard a guess that he means "foreground", Matt ;-)

Ah that makes sense to me! I should have figured that out but my mind wasn't connecting the dots.

Well I did my first "photo shoot" with the Pentax 67 and 105mm f2.4. I wont lie. It was a lot of work, but oh the results!!! Wow! Nothing like medium format. And I have fallen in love with Portra 400 I think. I almost exclusively shoot HP5+, so developing and scanning all my own colour film was some what of a revelation!

The Thames Barrier was opened in 1984 and provides London with protection from flooding when high tides combine with exceptional storm surges... It provides an unusual and fascinating sight (IMO especially by night).

HAH! Funnily enough, the similarity did strike me too. Maybe I was unconsciously drawn to it for that reason!

It's been quite a while since I posted anything of my own on here. These were taken last night with the Z and the Pentax 645 A 200. I really think the lens lineup could do with a modern design in and around 200mm, but this lens can produce acceptable results in post.

These two shots are of a estuary of the River Add flowing into Loch Crinan with the mountains of Mull in the distance.

Here's a fairly crude pic of my photography assistant, my working cocker spaniel Ellroy. He isn't at all interested in photography or sunsets, and is really no help at all when it comes to taking photos. Z and 90mm.

On The Road Again...

This camera has a fixed 45mm lens that gives about 28mm equivalent with 645. For me it is an ideal
travel camera for when you want to include big things from a relatively small camera.

(For those that have not been here, one cannot backup any from this point unless you shoot from a boat on
on the Detroit River.)

Or look across the river from Windsor. It's a big building either way

The skyline of Canary Wharf in London is becoming ever more impressive... Especially when viewed from a distance like this, it seems to have a looming power.
