          The Bride and The Veil

          We had a great wedding at the weekend and I have a number of shots to process but I thought I’d post this one. The wedding was at Bolton Abbey in North Yorkshire, it was a fantastic location and the weather was great. The couple are good friends of ours so it …

          Smiling Bride

          It’s wedding season again! We got this one a couple of weeks ago at a great wedding in North Yorkshire. I’m currently experimenting with textured overlays as they can give …

          2 Minutes of Sky

          Last post 24th March! If I knew what the date was I’d be shocked, I know we’re close to some religous shebang that has something to do with chocolate and …

          Striding Edge, Lake District

          Another one from Saturday. This was a quick and dirty panoramic (non of that tripod nonsense) Camera on full manual with focus set to infinity and about 5 shots taken in portrait orientation with about 33% overlap from one photo to the next. Photomerge in CS4 is so good now it …

          Helvellyn and Ullswater

          Took a quick trip up to the lakes at the weekend as it seemed the weather was going to be good, unfortunately it was a little hazy so didn’t get the camera out too often but these were a couple that seemed worth posting. I’ll have to get there for sun rise …

          Long Exposure Sunset

          I was out taking this at a local water sports lake and I had a couple of points I thought might be useful to remember for this blog but have forgotten them! I think I’ll have to get a ball head for my tripod at some stage, I have a three way …

          Black & Whites with lots of Grain

          Last night I was messing around with a technique I had seen using soft focus and digital noise to try and replicate an old photography style probably similar to Holga type photos. It relied heavily on the image being slightly out of focus, converted to black and white and a lot of …

          Trees and Masts

          I had a feeling we’d get a decent sunset this evening but I couldn’t have been more wrong, a mite disappointing to say the least!It was pretty windy up …

          The Glass Floor

          I was doing some studio portrait shots yesterday and thought I’d have a go at this technique I saw a while ago. It’s easy enough to do and gives a …
