I spent a week in France last week, on an Ocean Capture workshop, discovering some of the Languedoc region. I arrived a day early and had the opportunity to have a walk around Perpignan, an interesting town. Almost 30 degrees though, the camera didn’t manage to come out until the next day. The workshop was a group … Continue reading
I may have mentioned in a previous post, that I try to take a panorama, wide angle type shot at every new location shoot, as I am currently quite attached to the wide angle views of landscape….bit of an addiction. On my recent trip to North Devon, the opportunity arose to try out a very … Continue reading
Welcome to 2012! I thought it was only fitting, that my first post, and shot of the year was a local one. The plan (as it currently stands) is to devote January to ‘shooting the groynes’. That may sound a bit wrong, but the intention is honourable. Ie plan to get down to that lovely … Continue reading
I want to hold your hand Can music assist, improve or even affect the creation of imagery? It is something I have been pondering for a while now. Today’s shoot, a morning shoot (not sunrise but a bit later) at the coast and I once again I used the ipod to give me a sense … Continue reading

I have recently returned from a 2 day visit, and some excellent fun shooting on the Isle of Wight. It is my second time visiting the isle, which is a quick 25min trip from Southampton, but this time the plan was to visit Totland, and then the often photographed on the isle, ”The Needles”. During my trips … Continue reading
Before I headed over to Oz for my recent rapid visit, I spent a week in September shooting down in a local spot, the Itchen bridge which crosses over from Southampton to Woolston. This is quite representative of my time in Southampton to me, as I crossed this bridge for a month, travelling to some temp … Continue reading
Have had a very productive, albeit quite tiring week. Working in my admin role 4 days (an extra day this week), to earn a bit of extra cash before heading away for a couple of weeks. Also continued my focus on trying to do as much shooting as possible. Pleased to say I have been … Continue reading
So far this week, I have done 3 afternoon/evening shoots, in the same location, effectively to get the one final, pre-visualised shot. Each time I have gone back, it has been at a slightly different time of the day, I have tried different angles/compositions, and have had different weather and tides. It is really drumming … Continue reading
