OK before you all think I’m trying to convert you, relax!
I just want to tell you a story.
I had the privilege recently of being in Shanghai for two weeks of work.
That meant a lot of time (weekends) spent pounding the pavement with my trusty Nikon.
There’s no shortage of photographic opportunities in China – Shanghai included.
The architecture is stunning, the China meets West image…

I'm going to Beijing. Any advice?

Posted 7 months ago

This time next week I will be in Beijing.
My big sister (ok she’s only 18 months older than me) goes to china for around a month at this time of the year taking short term teams to do voluntary work over there.

Calling all Nikon shooters (oh ok and others!) i need some lens advice

So, good people of rouge bubble. Do I…

Staying.

There’s been a lot of crap going down here of late and I think it’s time to put up my hand and say…

I’m staying.

I’m staying because every …
