Tapping the collective wisdom/hive mind of the massive, are there any recommendations out there for cameras ? I want an SLR or similar camera which can also do video, particularly in low light (school events) and sports (school again), as well as the obvious stills for sport and landscape (my amusement). It’s an xmas present to myself so I want to get it right…well, more than I would for someone else. Thoughts below
Bring out your photos
It’s clear from the recent camera thread, and various Afterworders I know on Facebook, that many of us enjoy a bit of photography, so let’s see some of your favourite shots. I’m really a point-and-clicker, but I can’t ask you to show me yours without showing you mine so here’s one I took at the end of June when I was in the right place at the right time.
It’s Hans Haacke’s statue Gift Horse which currently occupies the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square. I couldn’t help but be struck by the way the cloud formation echoes the form of the horse. The Light’s daughter said it looked like the horse’s spirit was leaving its body, but I prefer to think that it looks more like it is cantering down to be reunited with it.
Your turn.
