Other

 

  • Hama Lens cleaning brush  
  • My website is based on Joomla, with various plugins and themes to make it work the way I want it to.
  • The photo library plugin I use for Joomla - after trying a fair few - is Morfeoshow.

I use Lens Pimp for any equipment hire. They offer cameras, lenses, flashes, file transmitters, the lot. Check them out here:
