Unset

Sometimes you get lucky, other times not so lucky. I took a trip out to the West Devon coast with a few other like-minded photographers with the prospect a nice sunset and a dramatic coastline to shoot around…we got it half right. The coastline was spectacular but the sunset just didn’t happen, there’s always next time.
In other news the website re-design is almost complete and will be rolling out – with a bit of luck in the not too distant future – so keep your eyes peeled for that one when it comes.
Octopus

Just watching where I tread as I wandered along the beach during the sunset hour to find this little arrangement. I thought it looks a bit like an octopus grappling with it’s prey…

I headed down to the beach in search of a location I had seen on a previous trip, with a particular image in mind I set off to find it. Curiously though I changed my plans when I came across outcrops of rock all criss-crossed with quartz. One mound of exposed rock grabbed my attention in particular, the softer dark stone having been eroded away to expose the quartz veins and interesting patterns within. With a bright sunset occurring behind me I turned my attention and camera towards the rocks for further study, the delicate pinks from the sky set off the quartz and gently illuminated the smoothed pebbles caught in the cracks and fissures. Since photography is the creation of an image during a passage of time (regardless of it’s length), the relationship between photography and quartz is linked through our arbitrary labeling of increments as it passes. There is so much more at this location than I originally believed, I think a return visit is on the cards…
The Lightning Tree

Dartmoor, Devon.
I was drawn to the mix of jagged patterns from the branches and the smooth flow of water below. By the time this image was made the light of the day had almost completely faded though there was enough to pick out the details, luckily there was no breeze either and the branch remained still for the entire 30 second exposure.

After being openly challenged by a friend who’s photographic talents I greatly admire I resolved to head out and see what I could do today… (more…)

I went to my first wedding last week and I really enjoyed it, not least to see a good friend getting married on such a wonderfully warm and sunny day on south Dartmoor but also because I had never taken portrait shots, at least formal ones, with much regularity before so I took to the challenge happily.
