I am a Taphophile
Let's talk about my incurable chronic mental aberration,
taphophilia, and have a look at some pictures which explain
the condition. Hint: a taphophile is a grave hunter and photographer. If you don't need to read about my taphophilia you can hop

§ Lightroom Classic and an AKAI Midi Controller
Read about how I use an
AKAI Midimix controller with Lightroom Classic and then never have to touch the mouse (with one exception).
§ Sterling Cables: A piece of Newbury History
This is my look at a piece of Newbury history - an illustrated look at the old
Sterling Cables site, which featured the derelict
cable building, once the tallest building/eyesore in the town, now demolished.
UPDATE: I have added 16 new pictures, showing how the site looks in April 2024.
§ Greenham Common
This is a series of my photograph albums about
Greenham Common, near Newbury, Berkshire, in central south England. I live in Newbury, and the Common
is where I'm often to be found, invariably with one or more of my cameras slung around my neck. It's a wonderful and often quite surprising place,
and my intention here is to give you a flavour of what it was, by looking at how it looks today.
Greenham Common used to be an American nuclear airbase, until that closed, roughly at the same time as the
Cold War was called off, and they ripped it up with big yellow tractors and things. But they left behind many many enticing clues and photogenic
reminders of its past. So this is my acknowledgment and thanks to those who, when ripping up the
former airbase, left us those reminders of what it was.
