Friday Image No. 156

This is going to be a short post as I’m working late, and tomorrow is a big day. My daughter is getting married, so I will be taking a few days out to enjoy the event. In the interim, I will leave you with this scene of Seattle cruise ship terminal I shot last year. … Continue reading Friday Image No. 156

Friday Image No.155

It’s been another very long week and the weather hasn’t helped. The storm at the start of the week put paid to any ideas I had of photography. I have though been using the time productively to work on a video courses; I promised I would develop one on masking to go with my latest … Continue reading Friday Image No.155

A few readers appeared to like the rock shot from my previous post so I thought I would share another from the same shoot and location. If you want to see more of the location you can view my video on You Tube. There is another point I should make about my last blog post. … Continue reading Friday Image No. 154

Friday Image No.153

Last week I published a tree image that I had shot in the woods near to Harrogate. I also said I had another image that I would publish this week and I have failed miserably. I even forgot to post anything mid-week for which I apologise. This Friday post is therefore the missing tree image. … Continue reading Friday Image No.153

I can’t believe it’s Friday already; the week has absolutely flown by. Monday, I launched my latest book and gave a presentation at Macclesfield Camera Club. It only seems like yesterday. This time last week I had just given a presentation at York Photographic Society and decided to take a trip to Harrogate. I actually … Continue reading Friday Image No.152

The Trinnacle, Saddleworth

In my previous post, I mentioned the Trinnacle rock that my friend Dave wanted to photography. Today I thought I would share an image that I shot that evening. The Trinnacle is the rock on the left and from this angle you can’t see there are three pillars (hence the name). The image was captured … Continue reading Friday Image No. 151

Last night I realised I hadn’t posted anything this week. Tonight, I almost forgot this week’s Friday image. I was so tied up with putting together a short video of a recent trip to the Lake District that I got carried away. The video isn’t ready yet, but will be posted soon to my You … Continue reading Friday Image No.150

Friday Image No. 149

I suspect many of you, like me are guilty of ignoring the landscape on our doorstep. Very recently I bought a book covering different photo locations in the Peak District (http://amzn.to/2eSTEEk). As I started to flip through the book, I thought I recognised a couple of locations. Sure enough, there was a section on locations … Continue reading Friday Image No. 149

It’s been a very busy week this past week. My daughter has been over from France with her partner, my grandson and a group of their friends. And they have all been staying with me. If you have emailed me and I haven’t replied, I can only apologise. I will reply as soon as the … Continue reading Friday Image No. 148

The heather is out. I captured this last Sunday in the Peak District using the Fuji X-T2. It's processed in Lightroom using the Provia colour profile (set under Camera Calibration in the Develop tab). As usual, it didn't take more than a couple of tweaks to finish the image. That's what I love about the … Continue reading Friday Image No.147
