Back with a vengeance! (Kingston Food Festival 2012)

Greetings! It’s been a while what with work and all, but I’m back here to start blogging again and I’m back with a new camera! Well, a new second-hand camera, but it’s new enough – a Canon 30D, complete with telephoto and macro lens. So, to test it out, a week or so ago I took it down to the Kingston Food Festival, and these are the results! Hope you enjoy them.

No shortage of choice here.

(My new zoom lens has made me very nosy)

Daleks raising money for charity, who’d have though it?

Lots of great food on offer.

No, He wasn’t singing “Eye of the tiger”.

Relaxing with a bit of music.

And of course, I can never resist a good sky shot.

All in all I think it went pretty well – still learning the ins and outs and all the little idiosyncrasies of the Canon, but I’m very happy with it so far and the old Panasonic isn’t going away entirely, just into semi-retirement as a back-up camera. It’s served me very well over the years, but recently I felt somewhat limited by it and that’s when you know it’s time to upgrade. And since I have this shiny new bit of kit, you can expect plenty more blog posts to come soon.

Catch you next time!
