Whitby Abbey has been on my of places to visit for a long time. Luckily last weekend I finally managed to get the chance. Unfortunately nothing too out of the ordinary as you can't get too many truly original shots of something photographed millions of times, but I'm really impressed as its been...

On a walk, I managed to take a shot of a bee taking pollen from a lavender flower. Ive only just come across this recently so just gave it a quick tweak. Im not one for flowers and insects but I like this shot. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve this or hints on how to start...

I went to the National Memorial Arboretum last weekend and if anyone hasn't been, its well worth a visit to see some amazing memorials. I spent some time on 'The Beat' which is a Police memorial walk. To signify the start of 'The Beat', there is an old Police light that with a bit of cleaning...

Sorry little kitten, I just couldn't help myself ;) Thanks for the comments guys. Its nice to see you aren't ripping them to pieces (or at least refraining) so I am clearly improving on my very first shots and i have added your comments to my pile of hints and tips for when I am next taking...

Thanks for your comments. I don't think I would ever want to do wedding shots as a job. I feel under pressure just taking snaps as and when I wanted to with them knowing I like photography (so they will have at least some expectations), let alone being expected to produce brilliant shots. I...

My mother in law decided to get married to her long term partner on Friday and after recovering from my massive hangover, I got to work processing some of the shots I took. Here are a couple I am quite happy with so thought I would share. I know a lot of people don't like selective colour, but...

I really like it. The colors are great in the sky and it looks so bleak I could see someone doing this. I hadn't even seen this as it was so small. What a good set of eyes you have. Care to swap my short sighted ones for yours?

Thank you for taking the time to write this. It was a good read.

I like both but lean towards the black and white. It would make a brilliant novel cover is the fist thing I thought

I like the processing and shot but the only thing that is niggling me is that the very top of his hair is cut off in picture one. The second one is fine as there is a lot of hair missing but the first one is just so close to being a full head shot it niggles me as I think there should be a gap...

Heres my moggy Giles. He is an anti social git who is content with his own company. You can usually find him on his perch looking out the upstairs window out into the world but he doesn't go outside as it scares him. Stop With The Pictures Dad! by Forsyth1987, on Flickr

I may have to start putting on my lens hood when out of the bag from now on then or you lot will crucify me if you see me :D. I only ever used it when the sun / flare was in the frame. as I am not a fan of having to faff about with it when zoomed as it sometimes creates issues when fully zoomed...
