  1. GoPro HD Hero 2

    October 27, 2011 by admin

    I just took delivery of the new “professional” go-anywhere HD Hero2 camera from GoPro. I intend to use it as an additional time-lapse camera for use in appropriate environments and also for kite aerial photography (the forthcoming wifi bacpac should be excellent).

    More details can be found at http://gopro.com/cameras/hd-hero2-outdoor-edition/, but in short the GoPro has the following features: (more…)

  4. Adria 4 Twin Van Review

    Adria 4 Twin Van, Brandon Bay

    A few people have asked me about what our Adria 4 Twin van conversion is like after seeing photos over on my Flickr page. When I was researching vans to buy there was next to nothing on the web (apart from the obligatory forum rants by fringe lunatics), so rather than send out hurried emails I hope this will be a useful text.

  5. Laser scanning Cologne Cathedral

    October 12, 2010 by admin

    I was in Cologne for Intergeo 2010. On the second night our Topcon GLS-1500 scanner joined us for a beer outside the impressive cathedral. While we were relaxing, it did the hard work of acquiring an amazing point cloud…


  6. Monitoring the Heritage Coast

    A short film I made from a visit to the coast near Cardiff to carry out laser scanning. The aim is to monitor changes in the rock year on year for coastal erosion. More info about this method can be found here

  9. new website

    February 6, 2008 by admin


    With a little help from the folks at Evrium I’ve been updating my website.

    Over the next few weeks all the images will be optimized and reprocessed so the best of my favourites will get better. I was prompted into doing this after binning my PC and buying an iMac and consuming a few hours of podcasts on Adobe Lightroom. Wish I’d done that years ago.

    you can see it HERE
