Sunset at St. Agnes Head, Cornwall

Shot from the top of St. Agnes Head, on the north coast of  Cornwall near St. Agnes, UK, looking out over the Atlantic – you can’t tell from the photograph, but it was very windy and cold – my daughter is sheltering out of the windy at the bottom of the triangulation point at my…

Ghosts on Westminster Bridge…

Gloriously moody twilight sky in this photograph – taken last year during a weekend stay in London – long(ish) exposure of 2s to allow the lights of the cars and buses to blur and get just an impression of the people walking by. Technical Details: Nikon D80; 2.0s;f/13@22mm (18-70mm;f/3.5-4.5;Stock lens);ISO400 – Camera mounted on Red…

St Pauls Cathedral across the Thames

 Yet another shot of the London skyline – this is much more “as-shot” than in the last photograph of St.Pauls. This was taken from the south side of the River Thames, just in front of the Globe Theatre – the camera was placed on the river wall as I had no tripod with me –…

In memory of the fallen…

Remembrance Day , 11/11/2013 This photograph was taken just after the unveiling of the Memorial to Bomber Command during June 2012 – this was just one of many moving tributes to airmen that had lost their lives during World War II.

Almost home…

A shot taken on 19th October 2013 in the Cotswolds between Shipton-under-Wychwood and Chipping Norton on the D’Arcy Dalton Way – just catching the last rays before the sun went behind the clouds and the hills in the distance – it had been raining earlier in the day, but cleared later in the afternoon giving…

St Pauls Cathedral at dusk

  Shot from the Millenium Bridge, I really like this shot – the camera was resting on the side of the bridge, with the strap folded under the lens to lift it a little (making the best of the situation – next time I must have my tripod with me) – 0.8s exposure (way too…

Birds on a wire

  Another early morning shot, just before sunrise on 8th August 2013, on the way to the station at Charlbury – normally I would avoid including the telegraph poles and wires in a shot like this, but I had noticed that there were birds sitting on the wires – almost as if they were watching…

The Shard at night

  I’m very pleased with this shot – I had taken some shots from the Millenium Bridge a week ago – long exposure, with the camera on the side of the bridge, but many of the results had camera shake (the bridge vibrates with all the pedestrians!) – this photograph was taken from below North…
