let there be light
It's been a long time since I have wanted to write anything for a blog. A changing world, challenges in life and demanding 10 month project has somewhat taking its toll ending in actually catching Covid in October on my 49th birthday.

I've spent the night posting landscape photography and scrolling through all my street photography. Most of these I will have posted somewhere before but lost count of where and when.

This is a shot of the city of Leeds, taken a few years ago on my old Nikon 3100. I can remember what lense I would have used or what settings other than manual and a tripod. I'm always suspicious of people that remember that stuff. Anyway, bought it in a second hand shop and... Continue Reading →
I've always had a fascination for a good Cemetery and Dean Road Cemetery in Scarborough is one of my favourites. We had spent a Bank Holiday weekend at the East Coast of Yorkshire. One evening we walked through the graveyard for more than two hours. Reading the headstones and taking shots. It was magical. ©Lucas... Continue Reading →
