Why Am I Me?

Peony flower

Recent photograph of a peony flower.

Managed to get to the last day of the Ed Templeton show on Saturday. Bought a copy of his book Deformer.

Spring Blossom

At last, after the most miserable winter I can remember it looks like spring is finally here. Here’s a picture I took at the weekend of some tree blossom, there’s more over at Flickr.

Snowboarder on the Piste

Just back from a snowboarding trip to Bansko, Bulgaria. Bit of a schlep to get there, a 3 hour flight followed by a 3 hour transfer, but well worth it if you’re going for a week.

Train Platform at Dusk

Took this photo from the Eurostar Train on the way to Paris last week. Had been snowing quite heavily and lots of services were cancelled but we managed to get there and back albeit with some delays.

Miss Ghana UK

This photo, Miss Ghana UK,  is the first on my Flickr account to reach 1,000 views, a milestone achieved earlier this week. It’s way in the lead in terms of views, my next most popular is not even on 200 views. Took this last year in Ghana during the Africa Cup of Nations football tournament.

It’s not even a great photo but I guess photos of glamorous ladies are more interesting to most people than photos of walls, plants and buildings.

Panograph of Segovia

Been stitching together some composite photos in Photoshop recently including this one of Segovia which I took earlier in the summer. Needed quite a bit of post production, largely due to the high contrasts, and has ended up looking a bit like an HDR image.

The aqueduct on the right dates from the time of Roman occupation, it’s still an astounding piece of engineering.

Photo of a full moon at dusk

The photograph was taken on a recent trip to Italy, doesn’t quite do it justice but it was a pretty stunning sight, amazing light.

Probably my favourite picture from my recent trip to Donostia-San Sebastian. The beach there gets seriously packed, as I think this image demonstrates.

Tulip photograph

Took some nice photos of tulips at the weekend. (more…)
