Bank Holidays
What do you do on a Bank Holiday? Go for a bike ride? Visit the seaside? Go for a swim? All of the above? OK – this is really just an excuse to play with an action camera – specifically the GoPro that will spend most of its time on my Brompton.

Bike Cameras for my Brompton
For some time now I’ve been thinking about putting a camera or cameras on my bike for my commute. While there was no single thing that tipped me over the edge, and I’ve been lucky to only have some rare incidents with other traffic, the ease with which you can fit cameras to bikes meant…

DJI Mavic Pro – Initial Thoughts
Long time readers will know that I’ve been playing with a DJI Phantom 3 Advanced for over two years now. I’ve posted a number of videos and photos from that drone in the past and I’ve been very happy with it. However there’s no denying that its size limits where you can take it. You…

Northumberland
Northumberland from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I recently spent a week in Northumberland and took the above video. I’m pretty happy with it, although the drone footage is so superior to anything else I shot, that it just goes to show that shooting good video isn’t easy (and definitely needs a tripod). Incidentally, there’s an…

NFL on Twitter… in the UK
Earlier this year, Twitter signed a deal with the NFL to stream 10 Thursday Night Football games. They paid around $10m, and the NFL noted that theirs wasn’t the highest offer on the table. I’m not going to get into the whys and wherefores of Twitter’s strategy. For the NFL, it’s about reaching harder to…

The Salt Marshes of North Norfolk and the Supermoon
I spent a few hours out in Blakeney and Cley next the Sea, flying my drone today, and shooting both some stills and video of the landscape there. The marshes remain busy in the winter with many birds either passing through or spending the winter months amongst the marshes. The colour of the salt marshes…

Devil’s Dyke
There are at least two Devil’s Dykes in the south of England. I decided that I’d be walking the one in Cambridgeshire, following a mention both in an autumn walks supplement in The Guardian, and an appearance in Tony Robinson’s Britain’s Ancient Trackways part of the Icknield Way. Naturally, I took my drone with me.…
