These photos are from my lovely walk on my Birthday to Hathersage. The sun was glorious and it melted me and my Fiancée.
Lots of grass and textures on these photos. A bird, ladybird and duck also make an appearance. It was a lovely day and I am quite happy with the photos I took even if I am still a bit rusty.









Oh look, whose this? That would be me with my newly dyed hair, taken by my Fiancée






Also a bit of sad news. My Birthday was 28th May and sadly my Granddad passed away a day later. I'm unsure when the next time I'll get to take photos will be. I may be getting use of a car soon so more chance of organising a proper photo shoot. Who knows but it may be some time before I'm back.

Take care everyone

As usual these are photos from Bramhall Park. It was just too nice out today to not go out and take photos. My main aim was to try and photograph more animals.







Love these Ladybird photos. Love that the red pops against the green.









Enjoy!

Reality is hard. It is no walk in the park, this thing called Life.

Oh look, It's Bramhall Park. Again. Sorry!
These were taken a week ago, the 19th. It was the same day I posted the photos from my film camera so thought I'd save these.
The sun was brilliant on the day.
I think I might be obsessed with playing with the colours in photos. Its a lot of fun and I think it can create some interesting effects









Not got much to say. Don't expect any more photos for a bit though. I do have a model who wants to do some work with me again so that'll be nice when we find a location and time.
Look forward to it!

Truth is the torch that gleams through the fog without dispelling it

It's been almost a month since I've taken ANY photos. So been given the chance to go out with my camera, I couldn't say no!
I went out on a walk with my family even though it was foggy and trying to rain. It did rain quite hard a one point so I had to put my camera away.



This is my favourite photo from today.

 


To be honest though, considering I had to turn down my ISO to 400 I got some really good photos. I've been wanting to take fog related photos for AGES. So I was super excited and kept falling behind the group lol




 


You may have noticed that these photos have extra colour. I wanted to play with the colours a bit, give them some extra interest. It was a fun exercise that given the time I would like to do again.
I'm hoping to get out next weekend with the camera to a new place. I haven't decided where yet.


 
Enjoy this random goose stood on ice

Since the last post I have decided to not go to college for photography. I have realised that I need to keep some things a hobby for now while I work on Design related projects. I do have a couple of Writing competitions I want to enter this year too. I'm hoping I can enter some of these photos into contests too!

Wish me luck everyone!

Busy Busy Busy


So it's been a while since I took photos. I know! Sorry!

It's been work work work at the moment but I took some photos at my mum's birthday of her amazing cake. I then went to Sheffield with my camera, finally!



This is me reflected in a giant metal orb with water flowing over it. You can find them near The Winter Garden's in Sheffield.



This building was just amazing. Hidden out of view of the main streets. It almost looks like some crazy object rather than a HUGE building. I think it's one of my favourite photos of this blog post.





I don't know how this flower is just surviving but it is. In a barren small park in Sheffield city centre. I love how the colour stands out against the murky dead plants in the background.

I don't think I'll have any more photos till after Christmas and/or New Year so Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
