For example, if you click on the thumbnail image for the Camborne Walkway, you will obtain several more images that were taken while on this beautiful coastal walk.

My main camera is the incredible Sony Alpha 900, which is a 24.6 megapixel full frame camera. My main lens is the great 24mm - 70mm Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T*. My telephoto lens is the the Sony 70mm-300 mm G SSM lens. The Sony A900 captures incredible detail and the images are suitable for making very big enlargements. I also own the very nice APS-C 16.2 megapixel Sony A55 camera. This camera is light to carry and I sometimes use it when on long walks in preference to the heavier full frame camera.
