Back, with one new camera, one dead camera...

 
Another break in blogging, caused as ever mainly by real life, the day job, and a couple of commissions...  We have been doing a fair bit of photography lately though, including a couple of shoots in Wales, a few experimental projects with a new camera, and a visit to the RAF Cosford Airshow, so a lot to post in the next few days.
 
 
Just a few snaps to start with, making the most of the good weather to try out a new compact camera, in the slightly overgrown surroundings of the local parish church.
 

 
The purchase of a new compact was somewhat fortuitous; we saw it cheap and it looked good, so we picked one up mere days before our trusty example we've owned for a few years suffered a catastrophic fault.

 
  These two photos, taken by Amy, were the last shots taken on it.  To an extent it still functions, but the screen at the rear is ruined (it would appear one of the Childs has stood on it) which means reviewing shots, or even changing settings, is impossible.  It has been a useful camera though, and may still see some use in more experimental shoots so has been kept for the 'reserve' with all the other slightly malfunctioning gear we possess.

 
Next up, probably some shots from Wales, and a bit more on this new camera.
