One of the places that we love to visit is Sheffield Park Gardens, and since the car park changes at Wakehurst Place, it seems Sheffield Park Gardens has a hell of a lot more visitors than we’ve ever seen before. As you stroll around the wooded area of the park you come across little wooden […]
One of the very first places we visited when we started to take up photography was Bodiam Castle in East Sussex. It is a lovely place to visit and the steam train leaves Bodiam for Tenterden very regular… so whilst visiting Bodiam you can also have a nice train ride. When processing a photo, I […]
A few weeks ago I watched a video about how to create a sunset glow in Photoshop and thought I would give it a try. Even though I didn’t go as extreme as the video showed me how to… I added two little glows one on the left hand side of the bridge and one […]
It is that time again for Stacy Fischer’s One Photo Focus Photography Challenge, and this being the last one for 2015…. my god where has this year gone. I can’t believe it is December already. I wanted to create something cool looking and I thought blue was the perfect colour. I did my adjustments purely […]
Doesn’t a month soon fly by… before I realised it, it was already the end of October and time to think about the November Monthly Photo Challenge set by Stacy Fischer of Visual Venturing. When I first looked at this photo, which was submitted by Helen Chen I didn’t have a clue what to do… […]
Sometimes you get a photograph and you have shot it either at the wrong angle or there is just something you don’t like about it. The photograph from above came from this photograph straight out of the camera, pictured on the left below. But with a bit of cropping and a slight twist of the […]
Yes it is time for Leanne Cole’s Monochrome Madness Week Number 29 post…. I missed last weeks entry … MM 2-28, which I am annoyed with myself about… but I thought I would get this weeks entry to her rather quick… The above picture was taken at Monterey in California and it was taken from underneath […]
The above photograph was taken on Saturday at Sheffield Park Gardens, in East Sussex and is of a metal bridge that spans the cascading water from one lake to a lower lake. The colours were vibrant and I wanted to enhance those colours… so I thought I would add a texture… to bring out the […]
It seems absolutely ages since I submitted an entry to Leanne Cole’s Monochrome Madness theme. Every week you can submit an entry (which I must from now on remember to do) and she will post it in her Monochrome Magic Theme. This weeks entry is Country. Well there is nothing like a young deer grazing […]
As many of you know, Stacy Fischer of Visual Venturing Blog runs a monthly one photo focus. The idea is that, a photo is submitted for that month’s challenge by another photographer and we do our edits to it. I loved the photo submitted by Michelle Lunato for the October challenge …. and I didn’t want […]
Just the other day I stumbled across a Photo Challenge hosted by Stacy Fischer of Visual Venturing. The challenge is to take a photograph submitted by another photographer and process it in your own style. The original photograph (set of 3 autobracketed photos) was submitted by Benjamin Rowe of Aperture 64 and I wanted to […]
Well you have all guessed by now, my forte in Photography is fine-art… I love adding texture and I love playing around in Photoshop. But one of the things that I find hard is masking, especially when you get a landscape photograph with lots of trees and lots bushes, and how to refine that mask. […]
