Normality?
I’ve finally returned to the UK, and I’ve done the unthinkable – I got a job.
The last 6 months has been interesting to say the least. I travelled through South America, went boarding in Finland (and broke my coccyx), caught up with friends and family, travelled through Thailand and Japan and I’m now sat in a Hotel in Gloucester looking for a new place to live. My job, which isnt too dissimilar to my job at Halley starts next week, and it’ll take to me far flung corners of the globe in search of dodgy comms equipment. I’ll be working for a land-mine clearing company, and it’s taking me to places like The Sudan, Chad, Afghanistan, Iraq and other such exciting[dangerous] places.
Seeing as my photography has taken a back seat lately, I decided to splash out on a new camera. The trusty 20D has been replaced with a new spinkee 5D Mark2, which I plan to use a lot in Africa for low light/night shots (using a lovely 50mm prime 1.4 L lens!). The updates might not be as often, but I’ll still use this site to show off a few photos now and again, and I might have time to post a few words when I have the time.
