I have stuck with the Fuji system and it is now as complete as my Nikon system. I actually prefer the Fuji controls, in the most part, to the Nikon system. There is rumours of the Fuji XH2 coming in November that will be effectively a 40MP Nikon Z7 camera. I am still vacillating about the merits of the Nikon Z system and the Fuji.

It's too late now but on Friday I got news of Bonusprint doing a 50% off photo books special for Halloween (what's that all about go figure?) Anyway I won't bore you with the contents but I successfully completed two whole books this weekend, driven on by my Yorkshire thrift gland to beat yesterday's midnight deadline (yes it is 1am as I am typing and NOW wide awake €) All though it's been tiring (haven't worked under that sort of deadline pressure for years) it's a worthwhile pursuit that I must again commend to you all, rather than leaving your images hiding in a dark hard disk. My 'assistant designer' did finish the last 10 page layouts in the 2nd book a) because they were her flowers and b) I fell asleep after dinner and was in danger of not finishing it. I have 4 more holiday/general photography books to complete to get up to date and then I will start some genealogy books.but they will have to wait till Christmas when I am SURE there will be a another 50% off holiday special offer. Finally off to bed.

We have spent many splendid holidays together (or part time together) as they too caravanned in Europe. But they are merely holiday 'snaps' for the last 2/3 years in the UK. We have a collection for the last 10 years.  Click here to comment on this image. I don't think the pictures of our holiday books are of any interest to other people..I only bring the books off the shelf to annoy relatives that have outstayed their welcome I suppose one of the books might be of interest to others. It's contains photos from a sculpture park in Surrey we have visited a couple of times. All the statues are for sale but with prices running from £3000 upto £120,000 they are a bit too rich for my blood. My wife did fall for a couple of works but I would have to sell my camera equipment ( which she said I should consider 😳) to fund them. I will leave anyone who chooses to consider which two they were https://www.bonusprint.co.uk/view-online-photo-book?widgetId=f0ee36fa-98a0-4655-8724-95dbdd538ea6 I do feel that the process of compiling a photo book DOES make you more selective about your photos. With limited space (cost) and the need for layout harmonisation you do have to pick the best images that fit the layout and capture the sentiment or memory you wish to keep. Quite often even a small cropped image can deliver a message.

What a Splendid idea,I have been wanting to make photo albums for my children with photo`s from when they were small ,since they have all moved out now and may want to have vivid documentation of days gone by ,...as most of the photo`s of my children are taken on film, I am considering of scanning the negatives and make books like you have done, I appreciate the " heads up ".thank You Eric.

For those with an interest in Birds I have compiled a photobook of all the birds seen in or over our garden in Norfolk. My birder mate jokingly refers to it as RSPB Gaywood......here are the 78 species we've seen since living here. Enjoy. Garden Birds On another subject close to my heart, here is a smaller tome showing this years IR photos. Enjoy. IR2024

Getting the new MacBook and returning to Photoshop has helped me no end. I think selecting/using the images in a photobook, rather than leaving them on a hard drive, adds a bit more meaning and worth to your efforts. Our collection is now up to 19!
