- [Puffin Therapy](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/puffin-therapy/): Puffins have been on my wish list of birds to see and photograph for many years. But it wasn’t until I was over in Scotland earlier this year.
- [Canon’s EOS 7DII and the 100-400mm II](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/canons-eos-7dii-and-the-100-400mm-ii/): Well I finally got my hands on Canon’s much talked about 7DII and the new 100 - 400mm II; a combination I was very keen to try out.
- [Sumatra Part 3 – Ketambe and the Orangutans](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/sumatra-part-3/): It’s roughly an 8 hour journey from Medan to Ketambe, although that can be quite variable on traffic conditions and depending whether you go by private taxi or bus - I decided on the taxi.
- [Sumatra Part 2 – First Stop Tangkahan](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/sumatra-part-2-first-stop-tangkahan/): When you first step out of the airport at Medan, in North Sumatra, the humidity smacks you in the face and the realization of working in a hot and humid country sets in.
- [Sumatra Part 1 – The Real Wild Orangutans](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/sumatra-part-1-real-wild-orangutans/): I was originally going to start my Sumatra series in a diary form like many other blogs are written, but because it’s not coming live I thought this would be a better format.
- [Review - DSLR Screen Protector](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/review-camera-screen-protector/): Do you have a screen protector on your DSLR? If not, perhaps it’s time you should. If your camera gets as much use as mine does and you find you often have to clean the grime off your camera’s display, and risk scratching it, then today’s blog could be of interest. I’ve put together this quick review of a screen protector by Expert Shield. Back in June 2013 I received an email, out of the blue, from a company asking me if I would use and review their screen protector. I’m always dubious about these sorts of emails, but at the time I didn’t have any protectors on my 1DX, so I thought “what the hell”! I replied to Ed’s email and explained that I was more than happy to give them a try. I told Ed that if I were to write a review then it wouldn’t only be written if I liked the product - if they were terrible I would say so. He seemed happy with this, and low and behold the Expert Shield arrived in the post.
- [The Best of 2013 - ideas on improving your photography for 2014](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/best-2013-photography-2014/): 2014 – Amazingly another year has flown past and as always far too quickly. If you’re anything like me then the past can become a bit of a blur.
- [Christmas Special](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/christmas-special/): Well it has been a busy year and somehow Christmas is upon us once again.
- [Tiger Tooth Trauma](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/tiger-tooth-trauma/): Going to the dentist is one of my least favourite places to go, just a mention sends shivers down my spine.
- [Focusing on Canons EOS 1DX](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/review_canons-eos1dx/): Canons EOS 1DX - Is it worth it? There's been a lot of talk and articles written about Canon's new EOS 1DX, but what exited me about their new flagship body was its all new focusing system. After my initial research I managed to get my hands on one, although only briefly, when the Canon rep turned up at a local Camera store – I was instantly hooked. Convincing my wife that life couldn't possible go on without one, was a different matter, but I finally managed to convince her that the gazillion dollar price tag was worth it! If you want to know all the technical spiel about this camera there are plenty of websites, and good articles out there to satisfy your geeky side. For me, I just wanted a camera that performed well and would do a good job of capturing the images I was after.
- [Photo Story – Play Time for a Baby Rhino](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/babyrhino_photo-story/): As most of you will know I run photography workshops at Hamilton Zoo.
- [The Bird Life in a Scottish Garden](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/scottishgarden-birds/): I’ve recently returned from the UK, Scotland in fact; it’s one of my favourite places to visit.
- [Tiritiri Matangi - Low Light Challenge](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/tiritiri-matangi-low-light-challenge/): Last week I had the pleasure of spending a few days on Tiritiri Matangi Island. If you haven't yet been there I highly recommended it.
- [Life through a Macro Lens](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/macro-photography/): I've been involved with a lot of macro work recently, with the publication in D-Photo magazine, and a talk last week at the Te Aroha Camera Club on macro photography.
- [Visualizing the Shot](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/visualizing-shots/): I have some great images for you today and some ideas that will help you improve your photography while out in the field.
- [Welcome to my blog](https://www.trevorpenfold.com/trevors-blog/): Hi and welcome to my new blog. With the start of a new year, I thought it would be a good time to launch my new blog.
