Boat and mill at Nalliers


Today’s photo:  Boat and mill at Nalliers. An abandoned fishing boat tied up opposite the old mill in Nalliers, in the Vienne area of France. The river Gartempe cuts its way through some very attractive country, and it is studded with villages like Nalliers at it’s crossing points.

Shot with my new Olympus E-M5 Mark II, and the 9-18mm lens and processed in Photoshop (to correct the perspective) and Lightroom (to balance tonality).

  • Morning, pristine

    Today’s picture. Taken at about 8:30am on Noordhoek beach before the arrival of many children.  There are a few things restricting my shots currently. The wind is very strong at the moment, but the skies are clear.    Sand blowing off the beach has a pretty abrasive effect on camera lenses, so its important to stay…

  • The Dales in January

    Some photographs by way of a change of subject from technology.  These shots are of the gorgeous English Dales countryside on a trip to Aysgarth Falls, during one of the wettest and stormiest periods in recent memory, so everything was green and wet (except Norman).  Very English.     As is our wont we spent…
