Some photos from Lake Kournas in Crete. Though this is only about an hour away I haven’t been for several years, so armed with the new camera this place was on my list to visit while I’m still here to get some new “updated” photos. A selection now available as stock photos through Shutterstock.
This started out as a roundup of 10 photos but when I put them all next to each other some seemed a bit “blah” and 3-4 were really jumping out at me… So it’s a top 4 post of photos I took in 2012! The first 3 were all taken in March/April with my “old [...]
I finished my Beach Love range of prints (though still have a couple more to list in my Etsy shop) Of course this range will never be totally finished but for the moment I’m happy with the range of 6 prints… Next I want to see what can be done with my florals, taking them [...]
On Saturday it was Guy Fawkes / Bonfire Night in the UK. I wanted to take photos of fireworks (something I’ve never attempted before) but after a bit of Google research I kinda knew what I should be doing with the long exposure settings. I was pleasantly suprised with the results…and even found a B [...]
As promised here are some pics showing our day out at the zoo to celebrate my birthday. First we saw the penguins… Then the Meerkats. I’ve been watching Meerkat Manor (when I remember it’s on) so it was cute to see these guys in the flesh… Even if they are in captivity. At least they [...]
We had a “family day out” at Westonbirt’s Tree Fest yesterday since it was the bank holiday weekend. (Family being Danny his parents me and the dog!) What’s a tree fest? I’m not entirely sure myself lol but there were lots of stalls with wooden items for sale from wood turned bowls to coffee tables [...]
I’ve been working on some new business cards which are for sale at my Zazzle Store… Previously I could only really use images that had a blank coloured area, (such as the sky) so that the business info was readable because the text wouldn’t show up clear enough on “busy photo’s”. But now with my [...]
Did you see this new print in my Etsy shop? A simple nature tree tops scene…
… one of these… A “proper” camera – A full DSLR. I’ve been looking at the Canon EOS 500D… I only have a bridge camera at the moment (one up from a point and shoot but not a full DSLR with different lenses) as I was a little bit scared of getting a DSLR before… [...]
The foxgloves are in full bloom in the garden or atleast they were, the recent downpour may have done some damage. Here’s a pretty summer flower photo that I captured when I had a whole hour outside in the garden, just me and the camera! On an entirely different note, I’ll soon be moving the [...]
