Welcome to my photo blog, imagesRM.uk
I live in Edinburgh, an important city in the development of photography. I am respectful of that tradition.
I have reduced my camera stock to three wonderful cameras: The Leica Q3 for digital, the Mamiya 6 (1990’s model) for Medium-Format Film, and the Konica Hexar AF for 35mm.
All images are copyright, but do ask if you would like to use them or have a print.
Comments on the posts are welcome.

Hey Rob, Bev here from You tube (LoveandPeaceOccurs). All Your photos are B e a u t i f u l, Thank You … for sharing your perspective. Good luck to you in all you do. Have you seen the site …americanfineart.com? (I think I’m remembering that correctly?) You can sale your pictures in a variety of formats, if you choose … (I just look at the art … I’ve none for sale) … Anyway, Have a beautiful day
Thanks, Bev! Nice to know your name 🙂 I’ll check it out. Cheers.
G’day Rob! Like your site. You mention that you have a Konica Hexar. Is that the AF model with fixed lens? I have one but haven’t used it for years. Which reminds me. “ have I taken the battery out?”
Take care and stay safe.
Cheers
Stefan
Hi Stefan. Yes, it’s the AF model with the really nice fixed lens. Fine camera, if you don’t mind the complexities of the menu system!

Hi.
Just a distant follower here…..appreciate your sharing the manifestations of your creative fire. I’ve listened to your music for a few years. Gratitude for sharing your poetry on your “last? video.” Much vulnerability there. Third poem resonated most. As for your photography, I love “Laminar’s End”, the boy of “Climate Emergency” in Protest, and the intimate whimsy of the leaf Scanography, Wishing you all the best. Please continue sharing.

Hi Victoria! Thank you very much for your nice comments about my work. I had intended to do no more videos, but then came Covid-19 and the lockdown, during which I had a lot more time than usual. I also contracted the virus, and have been quite ill, and for solace I would play Bach. I don’t have a lot of strength to hold a guitar, hence the use of the ukulele!
Anyway, I’m on the mend, getting slowly better, and comments like yours cheer me up. Thanks again! Rob
Many thanks, Edna!
Hi Rob the image at top of this page really does it for me, I love the overall feel and also the technical aspects where the shadows and highlights fall just right. I will refer to this image again as a tutorial
🙂
See you DMF (where I’m DigitalFinger)
Hello Rob, just a word from another musically / photographically inclined chap. Your work is delicately beautiful, both in sound and vision – I appreciate your sharing it with us. I do hope you are feeling better in this new year. All the best.

Many thanks for your kind words, Sergerémy. Appreciated! Take care, and work hard. I am feeling fine these days. Best wishes! Rob
Hi Rob,
I think if I were you I’d keep this site. Why start fresh?
Ha. Thanks, Gary. I’m still thinking…
I suppose this means you’re not gifting me that good-for-nothing Hexar anytime soon! 😦
I like the blog, though. Good work!
Patience is a virtue, young man!
