Hi folks; here's some pictures I took from a recent adventure to Goodrington Beach. Sorry about the quality.. ..blogger is compressing my pics! I need to look into a flicker account!

 This one is my favorite.

 Every time I look at this I look over my shoulder watching for a Werewolf.

 Playing with depth of field.

Finally a lovely long exposure of the local water park.

My RC Camera Car

It's been a while since my last post. The last few days though have been rather productive;

Using an old road-sign and a few nuts and bolts I have managed to make a radio controlled camera platform for my iPod out of an RC car I've had in the loft since I was a kid.

The first stage was bending the cover plate for the chassis which was simple enough. I then cut a hole in it and mounted a servo on springs to damper an excess movement. I then made a 'tank turret' out of an old camera lens to keep the camera level whilst panning. Another servo was mounted on a 'C' shaped piece of aluminum to control the tilt. finally I made a little case for my iPod and Android phone out of a perspex sample I had left over from my degree.

Now I made this I can adapt it to take different cameras such as the Cannon 550d.
