We move on now to my favourite type of photography. Wildlife. This is what I really enjoy when it comes to photography, especially in new places. There’s a degree of unknown that adds that little bit of excitement while you’re trying to capture something of the story or personality of […]
We proceed from the end of the last post, where we encountered a problem. The dynamic range was just too big to be captured in a single shot. So how do you deal with a problem like that? Well, it’s pretty simple. The answer is HDR (High Dynamic Range)! Now, […]
So I’ve had a lot of requests for either the coloured versions of those black and white landscapes or other coloured landscapes. Fortunately, this has been part of the plan all along. You’ll find that this is actually only the second of three posts full of landscape pictures from Corsica. […]
Preface: It’s been a while, but it’s about time to get some images up. There are a lot of photo projects in the works for the site, so in the meantime, I have to get up a few shots, and what with having been in Corsica and having work and […]
When it comes to wildlife photography, there are essentially two groups of people. The first group go out, sit, and wait. These are the people who have the patience, skill, and determination, to get that shot. Then there’s the second group. These people claim to be wildlife photographers, but really, […]
Hey folks! I gotta say, the last two days have held some of my most exciting and best photographic moments. What’s the secret? Getting out there! As a photographer, if you don’t make the effort, you don’t get the shots. To shoot an animal truly as it is, to capture […]
Sometimes life grabs you by the neck and drags you along. The last few weeks have been really tough, what with exams and everything, but despite this, I have been faithfully trudging on with at least some photography. I’ve been shooting photographs every day (missed only one so far!) for […]
Over the past few days I’ve been going up to the forest near my house for hours, in part to clear my head, and also because of the 365 Challenge – I have to be in good places to really get good shots. Today was no exception, only with extra […]
Swans are some of the most excellent birds for the starting photographer. They have become tame to the point of stupidity – it is far too easy to get far too close to a swan for your own safety. This has two implications. Number one: photographers get bitten. Number two: […]
Hey, I figured it was about time that I get myself ALMOST up to date with what’s going on with my photography right now. I’m almost there now, this post should bring almost there. These photos were taken in the weeks just before I came back from university. I’ll warn […]
Why hello there! So sorry it’s been so long since posting. It’s been a few difficult times, but yes, we’ll see. Things change. Anyways; on with the blog! There are some pictures, and some newses! Alright, now I know I promised it in the last post, but I really am […]
So I promised a bit of an update last post, so I figure it’s about time i did something about it. There’s been a long gap, and ltos and lots of pictures have had time to build up. Fortunately most of my courses here at university have come to an […]
Hey! So, it’s been an awful long time since I’ve given a bit of blog, and I figured I should bring you up to speed on the wonderful 300mm f2.8 VR. There have not been many photos from it on here yet, due to its absence in Madagascar. Next time, […]
The time has come. This really is the last of the animal posts from Madagascar. The next posts will be entirely focused on catching up with the photography that has occured since – ravens, South Carolinan birds, and even some more panoramas. This is not the end of the Madagascar […]
Hey! I’m back! the whole blog is back! and I figure it’s about time to get into the mushy gushy stuff that most people have a special affinity for: Mammals! so sorry it’s taken so long, but I hope you’ll find it worth the wait. if not, there should be […]
