Once again its that time of year when we all go crazy chasing Poppies, that most elusive but beautiful mistress that takes so much of our time and effort but is worth every second. So its been a while, some of you have been asking where i've been as I used to blog almost weekly and there has been a 6 month gap since that last happened ! Well, to cut a long story short I haven't been very well and have been dealing with getting myself better and back out there, also with a bit

So I had just started my Scottish adventure by visiting the Trossachs National Park and now I was venturing north to get to the Highlands, somewhere I have wanted to visit for so long. As I drove around Loch Lomond it never seemed to end, it was a vast loch thats for sure, but I was eager to see Glencoe as it was an area I wanted to focus heavily on. It was around about a two hour journey to the lower highlands and I have to say, very very scenic and enjoyable, it was a Sunda

Photoshop, perhaps the most innovative creation in the photography world for a vast number of years ? Used correctly it can be an amazing weapon in your arsenal, but are you making these 7 terrible mistakes that will ruin your image ? Now I'd like to start by saying this is all my own opinion, doubtless others will have other ones and mine are purely based on my own findings, my own mistakes & and seeing those made by others. It is also very much exclusively based on the land

Continuing my theme for the photography blog posts on Dorset's premier photography locations this week we will be looking at Kimmeridge Bay and it's surrounding areas. Kimmeridge bay is a photographers dream and one that you should all visit at least once in your lifetime. It has so many features to shoot and so many interesting little areas you could shoot there for years and still not cover it all, I should know I've been photographing it since 2010 and still find new areas

I decided I would do a bit of a guide to locations in Dorset for landscape photography and what better place to start than my absolute favourite, Portland. What is there not to like about this fantastic area, it has everything a photographer could wish for, Portland Bill lighthouse, big angry waves, rocky ledges, small bays, I could go on all day about it. While I'm not going to be able to list every location as it would take forever I will list the key points, but have an ex

The familiar sound of the 5 am alarm call rang in my ears and I hurried to look out of the window after the weather forecast of snow last night, It was a big disappointment, there was none. Snow had been replaced by driving rain and gusty winds, I was not amused in the slightest. There was only one way to deal with a situation like this, console myself with a full english breakfast and go on a location scout again. Wednesdays weather was looking fowl and time was ticking away

Hello again everyone and sorry for the long absence. Since October I have been flat out at work and under huge amounts of pressure and getting out to do pictures has been a rare treat. Work deadlines have been hanging over me and the never ending workload has been brutal to say the least. I try to always have a blog ready for release every Friday but work simply wasn't giving me a chance to do so and any rare spare moments I got were spent rushing out with the camera to try a
