Welcome to my piece of the web – a space I’m using for two of my interests: photography and the Moto Guzzi Le Mans ‘Mark I’ café racer.

Photography. This section is mostly (but not exclusively) on using and servicing the Epson R-D1 digital rangefinder. Hopefully, users of this camera will find these pages helpful. If anyone spots any errors, or has new information on the Epson R-D1 (or R-D1s) that would be a useful addition to this website, please email me.

Moto Guzzi Le Mans ‘Mark I’. I’ve admired this Italian classic ever since I was a teenager in the late 1970s. In the mid-1990s I bought one, and spent the following decade modifying it extensively. It still looks like a 1970s motorcycle, but now handles, accelerates and brakes like a modern machine, not a 30-year-old.
