Tree Surgeons with the 6D

What better way to explore my new camera, the Canon EOS 6D than from my own office window? Call me lazy (is it that time of year?), but this time, very little effort was required to shoot some test pictures. A gang of tree surgeons were pruning the sycamore trees right outside my house - and living on the second floor means that I was able to capture them on eye-level, although that's a good 30 feet off the ground. In any case, it made for interesting pictures, and phantastic image quality thanks to the superb 6D.

Shifting Perspectives

What more could you want on a lazy Sunday? Good light, a bit of energy and three wonderful tilt-shift lenses in the bag to experiment with. Following on from the somewhat old Tilting & Shifting, I have once again found my more playful visual side and went for a walk through London's east end.
