Continuing my “Portrait Photographer takes on Landscape Photography” quest, a few days ago I headed down to an incredible location just a short drive away from where I live, called Blackchurch Rock ( What3 Words: ///expanded.dugouts.haunt )
This was actually the 2nd time I’d…
A few days ago, my wife and I took the short drive from home over to beautiful Lynmouth as I’d had an idea about creating a timelapse showing the tide coming in.
Having checked the tide times we arrived just after…
Over the moon seeing the design for the front and rear cover yesterday of my latest (4th) book, The Photoshop Layers and Selections Workshop, published by Rocky Nook. (publish date of August 2021)
Designed by my mate Dave Clayton, there’s also some images to be added on the back cover and he’ll no doubt be adding his usual magic finishing touches, but even seeing it as it is now I’m so incredibly happy with it!
VERY happy too that the one and only Dave Cross has writtten the foreword. Without Dave being out there sharing his knowledge when I first started out, I very much doubt that I’d be doing what I’m doing today!
Getting so close to finishing the writing now (full steam ahead this week) and getting it all over to Rocky Nook publishers
Oh, and it’s available for pre-order on Amazon too 🙂
Cheers

It might sound odd to say this but I honestly believe that Covid-19 Restrictions placed upon our daily lives, have actually made me a Better Photographer.
Before March 2019, the only time I would have my camera in my hands was for taking a portrait. As a Portrait Photographer I just wasn’t interested in other genres.
However, this all changed and I explain all in this video.
Hope you like it,

Following on from my previous post, here’s a portrait taken of a male surfer on the beach at Saunton Sands in Devon using the new Sony A1 and the Westcott FJ400…
If you ever share video content on social media, then check this short video out to see how you can use Premiere Pro CC and the Auto Reframe function to make sure it looks its very best…
Recently I got my hands on the new Sony A1 for a VERY quick photo shoot of a surfer on the beach at Saunton Sands in Devon on a VERY bright day.
Here’s a short video I recorded showing a quick, simple techniques for colour correcting images and removing colour casts.
Blink and you’ll miss it 🙂
Sat here reflecting on the past 18 months or so of us all living with the Covid 19 Pandemic and subsequent restrictions.
Hard to fathom that its been so long since I’ve been able to continue with my 3945 Portraits Project, photographing World War 2 Veterans with the sole purpose of…
