A place I want to visit

I'm not much of a traveller but I wish I was. Then I could go here...

Hebden Bridge Flooded again

Just made it home after leaving the office early due to heavy rain which has left parts of Hebden Bridge under water again, just over two weeks since it happened previously. I managed to take a few shots on my phone before Mike and I had to wade through a

Capturing moments

In recent months I've been reflecting on my photography as a whole and I feel that I've reached a point where I'm beginning to understand what photography means to me. I think I've been struggling to figure it out ever since I bought my first DSLR and it's only really

King's Cross

London Street Photos

Spent the weekend in London with friends and managed to get a few street shots in whilst we were wandering around.

Snow in April

The weather over the last few weeks has been more akin to cool Summer temperatures and just as we were all getting used to it, a weather system swooped in to cover Halifax in snow for just a day.

Manchester

Went to Manchester for a wander around and drinks. Whilst avoiding spending loads of money in Magma and Forbidden Planet, I managed to take some shots around the City.

Cyclist and paint

Took a few shots on my walk home. Not saying these are amazing but most I took were pretty dire, I just liked these ones out of the bunch.

HuddsDigitals, March 2012

Another great evening in Huddersfield. Lots of talk of Git and Canvas.

Sunny March

Went for a little wander after work. Saw some boats, some old blokes chatting whilst catching some rays and my brother with a pizza.

To and fro

Walking around Sowerby Bridge to and from work. Some shots I like, some aren't too cracking but take the rough with the smooth I suppose.

Character buildings

Since the weather was so fine and Luisa was visiting a friend in York I decided to take my Nikon for a walk in town. I decided to focus on some of the buildings dotted around Halifax which have some interesting or distinctive features. I took a couple of extra

First day with Nikon 1

My new Nikon 1 arrived just in time for the weekend. I've taken it everywhere with me so far and it's holding up really well. Producing clear shots and handles varying lighting conditions really well. Here are just a few from Friday and yesterday.

Downgrading gear

I've been thinking about this for quite some time and will likely result in many messages calling me a twonk but... I'm thinking of selling my Canon gear. I've been reflecting on how I shoot and why I've not been taking my camera out with me much these days. The

Honeymoon begins

First leg of the honeymoon sees us heading to Kent to stay with Luisa's Mum for a few days then Monday morning we'll be heading to St. Pancras, then Paris!

Earth

This is a short film shot from the ISS between August and October 2011. Five minutes is way to short a time for this in my opinion. I could literally watch this over and over again.

First frost

I woke this morning to find the world dusted in frost. Bloody freezing but it makes pretty much anything worth photographing.

Leeds Guitar Night 2011

This weekend, we went to see Giuliano Modarelli, Erik Mongrain and Jon Gomm play at The Wardrobe in Leeds. We managed to get a spot right next to the stage so I was able to get some decent shots of all three performers. If you ever get a chance to

Misty morning

These Friday walks along the canal to work are really becoming a regular thing. I think there is a stark difference between these and similar shots I've taken before thanks to the Autumn weather conditions. I always like shooting at this time of year.

Autumn is here

Trees are changing and shedding. It must be Autumn again.

Analog for Mac

I'm not really in the habit of writing about apps but I just wanted to put my thoughts down here in case anyone was wondering whether Analog is worth buying. For those who don't know, it's a new app for Mac for applying effects to images. The interface and general

The day I turned 26

A few shots taken on the morning of my birthday. The early morning sunrise gave some great lighting conditions.

Wedding day plus three

To kick off our week off, we had a number of errands to run so we spent much of the time in the car. We did manage to stop off for breakfast in Leeds.

Project 50 // Black and White

Nearly on the final stretch of Project50. The shots here sit within the Black & White category.
