    Heavy seas

    I've been a bit quiet on here lately - I'm still mostly shooting film at the moment. In fact, I bought 3 film cameras last week: a Hasselblad 501C to go along with my 500C/M, a Fuji GA645zi and a 35mm Russian rangefinder - a Zorky 4K. The latter takes Leica screw thread M39 lenses and I've ordered a m43 adapter so that should be interesting.

    Digital wise I'm still soldiering on with my E-M5. At the moment I don't see any need to upgrade to the E-M1.

    Anyway, on to some photos. Over the last couple of days there has been a combination of high tides and heavy seas and I took these at Porthcawl, near Bridgend, on Wednesday and Thursday.

        Thanks Mark and Tord.

        No, that's not me, it was a Japanese tourist. They do get everywhere, don't they?

                great set, looks pretty wild and cold. No.2 for me.

                Ever wondered what happens the dark when the light is switched on?

                  Great series but I like everything about shot no 2 - the composition of the shot is excellent as is the light and the contrast between the foam on the sea/the distant wave and the deep colour of the sea wall - even the tones of the sky add to the overall picture!

                    I love the power of an angry sea, even though it can be destructive and dangerous. This is a great set, which captures some of that power. Thanks for posting, Roger.

                          Great set Roger, you have really captured the power of the sea; No. 2 is terrific.
