Bag Review: Trakke Assynt 17
Both as a photography nut and a regular guy, I'm a sucker for man-bags and backpacks. I currently have an F-Stop Loka UL with a couple of ICUs, two Peli cases, a Billingham Hadley Pro and a Contax/CCS Heritage bag on the photo side.

Clevedon Pier
My wife and I have an affinity for Piers due to our work with Hastings Pier trust. Last weekend, we visited Clevedon Pier on the way to the southwest. It's absolutely lovely and no surprise that it's the UK's only Grade I listed pier. Just a few snaps from there...
A Walk on the New Hastings Pier
We visited the revamped and revitalised Hastings Pier on Saturday. This was a rewarding experience as my wife was a trustee for a couple of years and I was a core volunteer. We both contributed to setting up the shop and providing it's best selling product and my wife was key in appointing the design… Continue reading A Walk on the New Hastings Pier
