Spring Landscapes
Spring Landscapes

That first image is probably my favourite landscape that I’ve ever shot. It would be a perfect location for a couple of photos on a pre-wedding shoot. I love playing with depth of field on landscapes, it really puts things into perspective.

Tilt shift and strong blacks
Tilt shift and strong blacks

I’m trying something a little different with my post processing, on landscapes at least; it’s making me love black and white so much more.
The top two images were shot with my lensbaby tilt shift lens – I didn’t used to like this lens too much but it’s definitely starting to grow on me.

Nature Macros
Nature Macros

It was a lovely warm weekend so I ended up shooting quite a bit of landscape and nature stuff. I even tried my hand at some time lapse photography (results to come later.)
This is the first of two photo posts from this weekend. I’ve grouped them into macros, then landscapes and finally a short time lapse [...]

Trip to London
Trip to London

I shot these images on a trip to London a couple of weeks ago.
My 5D MK II was at Canon for repair at the time so I shot these with my old 400D and my old manual focus Carl Zeiss Zena Flektagon 35mm 2.4. I love this lens so much but its a struggle to [...]

Focus on Imaging 2010
Focus on Imaging 2010

Slightly random blog post today. I took my camera to the Focus on Imaging Exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham, thinking that I could get a few interesting shots to share with you on here. Well the exhibition really wasn’t all that exciting so I only ended up with a couple to share.
The first image [...]

Bedfordshire Countryside
Bedfordshire Countryside

For some reason I’m posting things in reverse order at the moment. The previous post had images shot after this one and my next post includes images from a couple of weeks ago.
I was on the way back from Costco when I noticed some Lambs in a field and made a mental note to pop [...]

Houghton House
Houghton House

I have been wanting to visit Houghton House for a while now. I found out about it whilst browsing Wikipedia for articles on grade 1 listed buildings in Bedfordshire.
Having just got my 5D MKII back from Canon (it went in for repairs) I was eager to get out and shoot. The weather is finally starting [...]
