  • Friday night...in a corn field on Jul 24, 2009 in 10 stop emley Hints Landscape Photography

    Went out this evening as the sky looked like it was going to light up the modest amount of cloud cover and I ended up, as I do more times than I'd like to admit, in a field with absolutely no foreground interest. I pulled out the 10 stop filter, to t...

  • Yamaha XVS 1300 Cruiser Motorbike on Jul 14, 2009 in yamaha commercial photography xvs1300 motorbike

    A couple of the Yamaha XVS1300 from yesterday, I like to think of it as an automotive work of art that no picture can ever do justice to. Not sure if we got the location right looking back, perhaps an abandoned warehouse would have been better, givin...

  • Suzuki Bandit 1250 Streetfighter on Jul 13, 2009 in commercial photography motorbike

  • Four Trees on Jun 13, 2009 in sky sunset Landscape Photographer tree

    I was struggling for a decent composition this evening, probably because I spent most of it chatting to a fellow photographer when I should have been scouting out locations! Anyway I usually do lone trees but there wasn't really enough space between...

  • Coastguard Rescue on Jun 11, 2009 in coastguard

    I was going through a memory card I'd forgot about and found these from our Scotland trip. A walker on the hillside had badly broken her ankle so they called in the coastguard rescue helicopter. There was plenty of people helping the lady so I pulled...
