  1. I've just been having a look through your site again, Mike, and I love the darker images you show. This one with the light trunks and dark woods is a good example.

I often take my 35mm with me to Poppit too and take shots on the move while the Hasselblad stays firmly in one place - (see the 'studies' section on my website). These shots are often more enjoyable to develop than the medium format ones.
