ukcameraman @ukcameraman.bsky.social · 28/02/2025There’s only one real person of Presidential honour in this picture. That person is President Zelenskyy of Ukraine. The other is Russian sympathiser Captain Bone-spurs who dodged his own military duty when his country needed him, and is a disgrace to his own country and people. Slava Ukraine. 🇺🇦 080

ukcameraman @ukcameraman.bsky.social · 10/01/2025Observation: Went for a full English breakfast with Mrs ukcameraman this morning. Cafe was full of builders from our local sites, all ages, packed because everything’s frozen. Not one newspaper. No Sun, Mirror, or Daily Heil. Not one. Most were on mobile, mostly scrolling TikTok or FB. #Journalism 050

ukcameraman @ukcameraman.bsky.social · 24/11/2024I know I’m a little late to the game, but I have recently jumped from an iPhone 12 Pro Max to the 16 Pro Max and the upgrade in the camera technology and what it can achieve is astonishing. Coupled with an M4 MacBook Pro running FCP11 and I honestly don’t see a reason to buy a “big” camera again. 260
