Happy Easter!

HAPPY EASTER FROM ME!

I hope you have a lovely long weekend whatever you're doing! Here are a few eggs I found lying around the house, bet there'll be a shed load more by the time the Easter bunny comes… Expect (insert Easter themed pun here) more photos of these chocolately treats!

Flowers and nature from further afield..

So here it is, last post on Cuba but by no means least! And hopefully spring will start to appear outside and we might get to see that big round thing shining in the sky. I hope so otherwise I will be all over #throwbackthursday with blogposts of sunnier places!

Have a few more of these flowers but that's for another blog post in a few weeks time! Pretty flower though huh?

I hope you've enjoyed looking at my Cuba photos as much as I enjoyed taking them and being out there! 

Don't forget that all my images are available to buy in a variety of formats. Please get in contact for details or check the price tab at the top of the page. :)

Humid Havana Nights

Havana by night is just as amazing as during the day. The locals go out and socialise, holiday makers are out sampling the local delights (rum, rum and more rum!) and there are people salsa dancing where ever you look. But before a night out, I always liked to soak up the last rays of the sun, well, I let my camera soak them up. Amazing how different sunsets are depending on where you are in the world!

This was taken on our balcony. Not a bad vista eh?!

This image hasn't been editing, how amazing is this?!

Love how the clouds look like a mountain range in these two sunset photos!

And would be rude for me not to include a few long exposures!

Greetings Cards to sell!

Hi Everyone!

All of my work is available to buy in a variety of ways, be it a lovely canvas to spruce up a tired looking wall, or a card to send to a loved one. As Valentines Day will be fast approaching, I wanted to let you know that I will be selling the below designs as Valentines Day cards.

If you would like to buy any, please use the 'Contact' tab at the side of the page and let me know how many you would like (!) and of which designs; names of each design below. Pop your address in there too so I know where to send the cards too and I will send you an invoice.

I will be placing an order shortly and would like to get some numbers together first so I can make sure no one is left waiting! Don't delay, send me your order today! (sorry, pure cheese but it works!)

The cost: £2.75 each or buy 4 (you don't just have to buy Valentines Day cards, I might add!) for £10.

I look forward to hearing from all you Lothario's and Cupid's! (And obviously if you have any queries, whatsoever, please do not hesitate to ask me!) X

Light trails

I really love long exposure shots and I have missed doing them! I love all the different effects you can create from doing them, the different moods you can impart on an image by using long exposure, the colours, the lines, love it all! There's a flyover near my house that I've had my eye on and with the long nights nearly behind us (we hope), there's not much time left! So here are a few of the shots from other night!

 And playing around with temperature settings on the camera...

Night life around London

Went out a few weeks ago with my photo buddy Keith around London to catch it at night. It was pretty cold and very wet but it was fun and actually the wet added to the feel of the night because the lights all reflected in the puddles and raindrops. Here's a few that made the final cut! 

Fireworks!

This is my last post on Goa, although if I didn't tell you it was Goa, you wouldn't know! I was trying my hand at taking photos of fireworks and I haven't done much of it before so was a learning curve! The fireworks weren't set off in the same places and it was quite difficult trying to judge where one might go off in the sky. So lots of food for thought the next time I do firework shots! Not bad for a first attempt though I don't think.

       

 

Goa by Night

Went to take some photos of the sunset and unfortunately it was a bit hazy so it lasted all of 5 minutes before it disappeared. So I decided to play around with lights from the shacks lining the beach instead. As you do. ;) 

And a candle...

Nothing like capturing the mood and feeling of a place with some long exposure shots! And with beautiful palms as silhouettes the opportunity was too good to miss!
