Nikon D700 and Nikkor 20mm f/2.8 AF-D lens.

An Aldi Supermarket lorry in a queue. Without the tree in the foreground, this picture would simply depict a boring lorry with an over-dependence on the colour red and a crass slogan which is practically meaningless. I salute the tree. Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor 70-210mm f/4-5.6 AF lens.

Before the cream.

I am fortunate in being able to have a breakfast, election morning or not.

Nikon D2Xs and Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 lens.

Nikon D50 + AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6G at 80mm.

Shot using a Nikon D40 with a Nikkor AI 50mm f/2 lens made sometime between March 1977 and January 1979.

Nikon D2Xs + Nikkor 85mm f/1.8 AF-D lens. 100 ISO; 1/160th; f/5.6.

City of Bath: Sainsbury's Supermarket, New Year 2019. Nikon D300s + Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 lens.

I used a Carl Zeiss Jena f/2.8 Tessar lens on a Canon EOS 20D to make this still life.

Photographed with a Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm f/2.8 Tessar lens on a Canon EOS 30D via an adapter, with an extension tube between camera and lens. ISO 800, 1/100th, and the lens close to, if not right on, maximum aperture. That is f/2.8 on the humble Tessar.

I spent an exciting hour photographing everything with a Nikkor 20mm f/3.5 AI-S lens on a Nikon D700 camera. The yard in front of the pub was abandoned and it was plain the summer was over.

Cherries are good value at present.

It is said that the choice of spinach to give Popeye strength was based on faulty calculations: a scientist misplaced a decimal point in an 1870 measurement of spinach's iron content, leading to an iron value ten times higher than it should have been. This is such a good story that it is a pity it is untrue. Nikon D90 and Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 AF lens.

I used the Nikkor 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6 G lens on a Nikon D90 to make this photograph. It's cheap and plentiful on the secondhand market. Optically it is quite good but the quality of construction is not the best. It's also slow, especially at telephoto settings. It will focus as close as 14 inches. It weighs less than seven ounces. I have used Lightroom to improve the photograph. The D90 and the 28-80mm lens were sold some time ago. A fast prime lens will always out-perform a consumer zoom like the 28-80mm. This picture absolutely needed editing assistance: it lacked clarity and contrast and the edges were blurry from being shot at maximum focal length of 80mm and maximum aperture of f/5.6. Just to guarantee softness I shot at 1/50th. I would like to think that I have learned something in the six years since I took the photograph but the rate of attrition suggests otherwise.
