I swapped my usual kit for 10 very different cameras, from a big mirrorless to a quirky Polaroid, to see how each would change my approach. The results? Playful, surprising and a big reminder that it’s not about the gear – it’s about the joy of creating.

I wanted one photograph that showed everything: the chaos, the effort, the mad energy of an obstacle race ramp. The single frame was never going to do it. So I built one instead. Here is how composite photography, a camera strap and a World War Z reference produced the image I was after.

While out running through the countryside, I stumbled on a surreal little scene – a pile of road signs pointing in all directions, abandoned in the long grass. It made me stop and reflect on how inspiration often comes from the most unexpected places. This post is a reminder that creative detours are sometimes the most rewarding part of the journey.
