Photos Jamie Oliver’s Italian Restaurant Bath 20-11-2008

I went back to Jamie Oliver’s in Bath for some shots for Impact (Bath Uni newspaper). This time armed with a tripod (and selection of lenses although I only used the 50mm f/1.4). Thanks to the general manager, Tom James, for permission. Here is an interview with Tom by Francesca Brkic along with the pictures [...]

(Latter half of) A Sunset – 19/11/2008

This was a really nice sunset, but I was driving back from Uni while the sky was ablaze, orange/red coloured clouds filled the sky. When I eventually got back I grabbed the camera and tripod and rushed to my near-by sunset-picture-taking spot. Whipped out the 70-200 after the following shot because there was too much [...]

The first Bath PhotoSoc session of the year (Saturday 11th Oct)

Finally got 5 mins to put up some of the photos I took while out with this year’s PhotoSoc members on our taster session. We took a walk from campus thorough the forest at the back of the Uni near the golf course. It was probably one of the best days we have had this [...]

Another Walk one Evening

I went for another walk the other day when the days were clear and sunny; the weather is slowly getting worse now :( Never Eat Shredded Wheat… Autumn is on its way… More rubbish being left behind. This place is quite nice during the evening sun; next time the weather is nice I think I [...]

Keep Britain Tidy

I have started a little photo project as of the other day. My photos for this are basically “interesting” documentary shots of litter/rubbish/trash which has been dropped or otherwise made its way into the world. Oh yeah, also once you are done taking photos, pick it up and bin it if you are able. I [...]

Using the GIMP

I was going through some photos I took the other day while at home and found one I quite liked. The only problem was either the sky was blown or the red tractor etc was too dark. So, the solution was to take three (-1, 0 and +1.25) “exposures” from the RAW file and combine [...]

Images of St Agnes taken with a Praktica TL5B

While at home last week I used dad’s film camera to take images of St Agnes, Cornwall. The camera was a Praktica TL 5B, I was using a 50mm f1.8 prime lens and some expired, ISO 200, 35mm colour film. My first shot (that came out) was of Stippy Stappy, a famous landmark in the [...]

Motorbike

Tried using the flashes outside again, this time on my brother and his bike. A shot (taken by dad) of the two of us. I think the one below was the best of the lot; taken with the Canon 10-22mm using an silver umbrella to the left and a bare flash on the floor. Some [...]
