This weekend I stayed in London and actually visited a place I have been before. I wanted to try and experiment with the compositional photographs some more, although only got two that I considered worth sharing and even one of those - the first one - I wasn't sure about. Below is the Battersea Park... Continue Reading →
A couple of months ago I went out with Ron to do some photography. We started at Wat Tyler Country Park and then continued towards Canvey Island. While there we climbed what looked like the land section of an old deep water dock, I was able to get some nice textures from a couple of old... Continue Reading →
The Austria / Hungarian border was eerie to say the least, it was the first time on the journey that I felt I was travelling into a whole different way of life. The border seemed, for want of a better word, lifeless, it really looked as if I had gone back in time and crossed the iron curtain... Continue Reading →
A surprisingly interesting part of my holiday was when I visited Le Greve De Lecq on the north coast. There was quite a small beach and a couple of cafes and the all important ice cream stand along the beach, a little further up was the old British barracks and watermill. Walking along the beach...

Mid-week I travelled to St. Ouen to see another lighthouse, unfortunately the lighthouse was just a small signal station, nothing as grand as I had previously seen. Something else of interest at the site however was Grosnez Castle. Dating back to the 14th Century Grosnez is a ruin of its former self, with just one... Continue Reading →

Originally built in 1840 as a church of ease for local residence unable to access the main Parish church, it became famous after the French artist Rene Lalique was commissioned in 1930 to produce...

Day three of my holiday was mainly centred around a visit to the Durrell Wildlife Park. I'm not especially a fan of taking pictures of animals that are in zoos, primarily because you can usually see all the fences and other man made objects inside the enclosures and to me it kind of defeats the...

Today I decided to go into London, specifically Brick Lane and the surrounding area. Currently at Brick Lane the Old Truman Brewery is hosting the Free Range art and design exhibitions. Many universities and colleges are there showing off the work of the graduating 3rd years in the hope to gain some exposure and maybe... Continue Reading →
After coming from the bank I decided I would take a stroll around Harrow Lodge Park in Hornchurch and photograph some of the wildlife. There was a lot of swans and geese around, some of them provided some nice photo opportunities during their mornings preening session. Check out some of the shots below: ... Continue Reading →
It is a well known fact that to get blue skies in England is almost impossible during the winter and would usually be due to some witchcraft! This photography trip certainly looked as though it may continue the grey skies & rain routine in the morning after leaving the train. Thankfully, however the clouds cleared,... Continue Reading →
