Entering Another Decade of My Life

I was born on this day in 1944 so enter a new decade. Here a selection from those years ending with a birthday shot 5 years ago in the Arctic - it felt almost as cold on the Bird Walk at Paxton Pits today.

David and Francoise at Stretham

A really fun afternoon yesterday with David and Francoise at Stretham Pumping Station. Their costumes were amazing and, despite the very cold conditions, they managed to look relaxed and fully engaged for our various scenarios.

Mobile Phones in Cambridge 1

I spent a short while in Cambridge this morning watching and photographing tourists with their mobiles outside Trinity College in Cambridge photographing the buildings, each other and themselves, and then, occasionally using it as a phone. Shot on Full Spectrum camera which accentuates the autumnal feel to the morning.

Silhouettes Workshop

Our Cambridge Camera Club Wednesday Workshop group are meeting in Toft People's Hall most of this season, partly because of its excellent facilities including some programmable colour spotlights, which we used last night to give some interesting silhouette compositions (helped along with Lightroom colour curve adjustments etc). Thanks Paul for running it and Martin for his help with the lighting etc
