  • Experiments in Slow Motion

    Experiments in Slow Motion from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I’ve been meaning to playing a little more with the slow motion capabilities of my Sony Xperia Z3 Compact a little more. I’ve just put together this from video shot earlier in the year. Actually summer would be a much better time to be out playing…

  • Wells

    Taken a few months ago now.

  • Mistress America

    I think it must be a surfeit of summer super hero films, but I’ve not been to the cinema much recently. However a new Greta Gerwig film is always something to look forward to, so I decided to head out to see Mistress America. I thought it’d be nice to see it locally so I…

  • RideLondon

    A couple of weekends ago was the now annual RideLondon cycling festival in London. There are several strands to it, including: – FreeCycle – 10 miles of closed roads around central London for families in particular to pedal around – The Brompton World Championships – The RideLondon Grand Prix – Women’s professional circuit race –…

  • Data Protection

    It’s a truth that however careful we are with our own data, some company, organisation or government body will probably be hacked and “give away” our data. Case in point – Carphone Warehouse. Now I’ve never bought a phone at the Carphone Warehouse. I might have bought the odd accessory, but that’s about it. However…

  • RAJAR Q2 2015

  • How Not To Reinvigorate T20

    The ECB has a problem. As the third Ashes Test gets underway, largely unwatched by the British public, participation in cricket continues to fall. According to Sport England’s Active People survey, just 0.6% of people ever play cricket. And this is a number that’s been in decline since the survey began measuring sports uptake. In…

  • BT’s Advertising

    As the new football season rapidly approaches (even though it’s still only July), so the marketing spend of the various pay-TV operators ramps up. Sky is showing some fairly well-received adverts highlighting their Premier League heritage and super-imposing Thierry Henry into the video. On the other hand, BT is busy trying to let the British…

  • Chapeau Chris Froome!

     

  • The Ridgeway

    Ridgeway from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. DJI Phantom 3 Advanced footage taken near the Ridgeway near Enfield, just north of London. You can just about see some of the buildings of Canary Wharf in the distance (about 15 miles away), and the M25 is also visible in one shot. Music: "Train" by Dexter Britain (http://www.dexterbritain.co.uk)…

  • The Tour de France in the Pyrenees – 2015

    [A ridiculously large number of photos means this page will be slow to load. Best viewed on a nice big monitor rather than your phone.] Although I’ve been to see the Tour de France a number of times, I’d never really been to see the race in the mountains before. Well, that’s not entirely true.…

  • “Join the conversation on Twitter…”

    We’ve all heard this on air. We’re extolled to get in touch with some programme using Twitter, Facebook, text or whatever. The presenter regularly lets the audience know what their social media handle is. Perhaps the programme has a hashtag. “Let us know what you think!” And then? Well they don’t really use those contributions…
