Yorkshire Dales Three Peaks Walk Photography
Mar 9th
We did the three peaks walk in the Yorkshire dales at the weekend, which is a 26 mile all day walking affair over 3 of the peaks in the dales, (Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough) and had some of the best landscapes Yorkshire has to offer. I had seen a similar photography idea that I wanted to try during the walk, it basically involved taking a photo every minute or so for about 12 hours, it got quite tedious after about 15 minutes, especially going up the hills and finding 3 feet of frozen snow on the tops but it was worth it in the end and the weather was pretty stunning too.
I also managed to get a couple of usable landscape photographs at some points that I have used at the start of the video to set the scene, I’ll put these up in a post soon.
Weekend in Amsterdam
Oct 13th
I was over in Amsterdam last weekend and they seem quite keen on the wide panoramic shots so I thought I’d do one of the canals. I would have liked to have done some longer exposure stuff, if anything to get rid of the people in shot. As I was tripod-less this 8 shot stitch was just done free hand and stitched using PTGui, I find it a little more flexible than Photoshops Photomerge tool.
The canals and bridges make great subjects and if you get away from the more touristy areas there are some decent shots to get. There’s an area called the 9 Streets (I think) that is great for photos and just to walk about in general, I thoroughly recommend a visit.
