Beachhuts

  These beach huts are at Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk, UK – The sandy beach, the pine forests, the sand dunes – when I think of “holiday”, this is it! I have been coming here since I was small (though not so much in recent years) – at low tide the beach is huge because there is…

Slow sunrise!

    Another photograph taken on the way to the station at Charlbury back in August. Glorious colours from the sunrise and interest in sky from the clouds. I particularly like the road markings – it’s adds some fun to the image. Post processing to lift the shadows and pull back the highlights some –…

Menorcan Sunrise

This picture was taken during the family holiday on Menorca this year – this was an early start to get up for the sunrise and a short drive to get from the villa we were staying in up to the Monte Del Toro convent – the highest point on the island. There is a huge…

Paddington Station – Platform 1

This shot is something a  bit more dynamic – I have been reading some of the ebooks from Craft and Vision and these inspired me to do something new – I’ll write more about the books later, but they are well worth a look – taken from the footbridge at the end of Platform 1…

Cotswold Sunrise

This is a personal favourite – taken just outside Shipton-under-Wychwood looking East towards the Wychwood Forest (on the horizon on right hand side of the photo) – taken back on 18th July 2013 at about 05:45 – I just stopped by the roadside on the way to the station and chanced upon the grasses that…

Misty Morning Field

Another shot in the mist on morning from the same set as my previous post (Misty Cotswold Light Trails), this time looking across the road to the field beyond down towards the River Evenlode. As with the light trails shot, this was taken mounted on a tripod – exposure time here was 30s – fairly…

Misty Cotswold Light Trails

You could be forgiven to think that I only take architectural photographs – so, just to buck the trend on this site, here is something different. I get up very early for the commute into London, usually catching the 06:06 train from Charlbury, Oxfordshire.  Right now, it is pitch dark in the mornings (sunrise is…

PWC building

  This is the PWC building, More London Place, London – or, at least, part of it! It’s quite a striking building that hadn’t noticed previously, though it has been a while since I have been in the area – love the blue tint to the layered windows and reflections – I’ll have to go back…

The Shard

I had some time between finishing work and meeting up with a good friend of mine a few weeks ago – the weather was good, so I went into the City with a view to getting some photographs of the Shard now that it is finished (well, on the outside at least). I took this…

Citibank

  This is Citibank tower, from the misty morning shoot again – another architectural shot – I just love the way the lines go on and on – normally you tend to get interesting reflections in the windows, be it other buildings or sky…but not on a misty day, making it quite stark – also…
