Snow Today, But still Beautiful Autumn Leaves on the trees - Great For Photographs


Snow Today, But still Beautiful Autumn Leaves on the trees - Great For Photographs

Autumn is nearly over, with the first wintry showers occurring last night. There's never a better time for photographing trees against the lovely blue skies of early winter. Crisp days are far more than just cold days, they also have a better quality of air and light, so perfect conditions for putting that circular polariser on to your lens and getting some lovely colours.

Stumbling upon these two was one of the defining moments of my life.

Afternoon walks are good for your health and for your Photo Albums


Afternoon walks are good for your health and for your Photo Albums


It was far to windy for a cycle ride today, so I grabbed the camera and went for a walk. We live in the heart of farming Norfolk and I'd be the first to say that the scenery is a bit lacking in variety. However if you can get a day with clouds in the sky you will certainly have plenty to photograph.

Most of us have a camera and it is not difficult these days to add some personalised decoration to your home by using your camera when out for a walk.

Photographs of Gigs and Festivals - How to take stunning images of strangers.


Photographs of Gigs and Festivals

Remember to take opportunities as they occur. Festivals and Gigs are excellent places to photograph colourful and creative people. Just asking complete strangers will surprise you.


These examples were photographed at a small festival in Norwich in 2000-ish. The subjects were total strangers, and yet they were happy to pose for these pictures and a few more (remember not to take too many - you will bore them).
