@ChromaCamera Thank you for the information regarding 65 mm. I understand 35 mm and Medium format and camera functions pretty well but I’m reasonably new to large format and lenses.

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

@ChromaCamera just bought my Snapshot 45 and looking forward to using it with 90mm. I���m new to this game and heard that 65 mm will give all over focus. Is this true as it would be useful for street photography?

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

@ChromaCamera Hi, yes, I ordered through a third-party. A camera shop.

@duckrabbitblog In 2012 I spent a night on Triund after a storm came rolling in unexpectedly. I slept in an old rickety lean-to, sharing the space with my pony. It was a fantastic adventure. Here’s a photo of the morning after. I hope your trek continues to be wonderful.

@phillipoKneen What? Is it a toy boat?

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

@JohnWMacPherson Thanks anyway John!

@visitBlackpool hi. I’m looking for information on the town’s twinning status with Bottrop. Do you have a twinning association I can contact? Cheers

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

@phillipoKneen @mchlbrnclrk The Vivitar flash and ‘auto thyristor’! My first flash gun too. Loved the little coloured distance calculators, surprisingly reliable. In my case used with my first camera - a Pentax K1000.

@prodnose Then stop talking about it Danny. You are only serving to promote it.

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

@prodnose I see what you did there.

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

@Lewis__Bush There are worse views. Get better soon Lewis.

@Lewis__Bush More Wales! (And dogs)

Over the past five years I have been participating in and making images of the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower fire and the dignified activism shown by the community of which I am proud to be a part of. People are angry, frustrated and tired of waiting. @GrenfellUnited

[Steve Mepsted @SMepsted]

It’s nearly five years since the night of June 14 2017 when a fire started in Grenfell Tower in Kensington and Chelsea, consuming the building; racing up flammable cladding which was installed in contravention of building regulations and as a cost-saving measure. @GrenfellUnited

@willjennings80 That Italy looks like an inflamed and bleeding broccoli to me.

@duckrabbitblog Wonderful!! I had my first daughter aged 24, my second aged 28. I’m 58 now and a double grandad! My love for my grandchildren is a wonderful feeling as it is imbued with memories of my daughter when she was that age. I’m so proud of them both and recognise how lucky I am.

@UNofPhoto I am currently working on images of protest re Grenfell Tower if you wish to take a look.
