Metal Trees With Spinning Leaves

Check out my video montage of impressions of wind turbines in Northumberland. I composed a piece of music inspired by these massive structures. I hope you enjoy. I look forward to your comments

Bending Trees

I created a image called growing towards the light. See it here using freehand movement of the camera. I wanted to revisit this concept with my new Sony A7mkii which I've now had for several months. This time, however, I wanted to use a tripod and 2 heads to give me more consistent movement. This image below is one of the results of that shoot. I had to adjust the various angles of the set up to give me the picture I wanted and this is one of the ones I really like. More thoughts on the Sony A7mkii another time. I'd love to hear your comments. Simon

London Photowalk

I went on a photowalk along London's Southbank on Saturday 18th. It was organised by Cameralabs Gordon Laing and also Chris Chabot. Great day spent with a really nice crowd of people. Check out some of the shots here Here's a couple more of mine. I experimented with several moving camera longer exposure shots but didn't manage to get anything I liked apart from one that I uploaded to Google+ here I'm going to work on developing a system of moving the camera in repeatable and controllable way using my tripod jig that I have made.....watch this space

Made Mystic with Motion

From my bedroom window I can see over the small valley that is Lower Bourne in Surrey UK and yesterday there was a beautiful sunset. It was lovely as a village scene in Surrey but by moving the camera during this 2 second exposure it has given me this wonderful mystic scene reminiscent of some far flung mountains. I moved the camera down and at the same time from side to side forming the swirling shapes from the tree line. I enhanced the colours in post processing to bring out the warmth of the scene.
