Playing with Autumn Colours

I spent some of the day at Sandy playing with the autumn colours using double exposure, plus camera movement on one of the exposures, soft focus, blending images with different depths of field finishing with a couple of straight shots. The first image features a cameo from a misted-up notice board

Storm on Freshwater Bay, Isle of Wight

Friday was very windy with gusts up to 50mph and near horizontal rain - not pleasant for being out but well worth time spent in a shelter on Freshwater Bay photographing the spray and waves. These were taken with shutterspeeds  from1/3200th to 1/8th second, all handheld, some with deliberate camera movement added.

Burnham-on -Sea

A few images from a visit to Burnham-on-Sea on my way to Bristol on a very sombre overcast day. Burnham-on-Sea is part of the second longest beach in Europe with the iconic low lighthouse,  the remaining active lighthouse of three Burnham lighthouses  Whilst Burnham has one of the longest expanses of sand, it has the shortest pier in Britain.

Sunset Walk with Camera

A fine sunny Monday ended with a colourful sunset so I took my camera on my usual short walk in Toft which includes both wide open vistas and Toft Wood with its great autumn colours. All shot at f2.8 between 1/30th and 1/8th second with unstabilised camera and lens.

Autumn at Santon Downham 2

In the afternoon,  it gradually cloudy over giving different lighting to work with. I used an older camera, which will composit only two images together as an average  and a very contrasty 50mm lens. The first image is an example of an old technique - the Orton effect where the first image is out of focus and the second image in exactly the same position is in focus. The second image is a panorama of the confier forest.  The type of picture I had in my mind are images 3-6 where the camera has combines an underexposed ICM image of the forest tree trunks with a bright autumn branch from a beech sapling.
