Shohola Falls

Taken on a calm morning with my Lee big stopper

So the other week I went out to pitsford and took some photos while I was there of the local sailing club boats out on the water. I sent them some pictures that I had taken and long and short I have been invited to take some photos does anyone have any experience with taking photos of sail...

paid another visit to my local racecourse :)

Lake with trees

Learning through experimentation

Sunset from West Beach, Lossiemouth in Moray, Scotland. One of my favourite views.

Took this with my pocket Olympus on our holiday the other week. It reminded me of the old days when I met my wife - and I was just starting out photography.. and every evening we had to stay out on some hill/field/beach.. and me taking pictures of sunsets :-) Haven't done this for a while - but...

Sunset at Dovedale. Thanks

On a family holiday so grabbing the odd shot with my new EM5 ii. Really impressed so far and got lucky with the haar rolling in just as we were leaving. I can't remember the last time I shot a landscape handheld as I usually use a tripod. Lots of fun with the pocket rocket as the wee Oly creates...

I've only had a couple of attempts at landscape photography before, but I was in Blackpool at the weekend and knew I would have a couple of hours spare early on Sunday morning, so I took the camera bag and tripod. Decided to break out the little used B+W 10 stop ND filter. The 'sea shell' is...

Was treated to a wonderful sunset last night of at Cemlyn Bay on Anglesey. Made the 2 hour drive so with it. Rock Star by Mark Boadey, on Flickr

A quick adventure to Porlock Weir in Somerset at the weekend, wasn't expecting much as 1 I had never heard of the place and 2 the images on line looked a little drabb from my 5 min research over a cuppa T. However I very surprised at the opportunities the location provides and even got a very...

Humber Bridge taken from north Lincoln over looking Yorkshire Over looking Yorkshire by sam gosnay, on Flickr

So I really didn't expect to get this, sure I went for this spacific picture but wasn't confident. However the condition where spot on and I'm delighted with the result, it's had a bit of PP to lessen the horizon as it was distracting. And on a side note I'm also made up with the XT-20 :D Dog...

Took a scouting trip over to Digley Reservoir to see if it has anything, it does, but I can't see me returning any time soon. Anyway I did come back with something. Fraggle Rock by Mr Drizz, on Flickr

Looking for ideas or recommendations for light stand weights. What do you use , buy or make for yourself ? I have seen some striped sand bags on Amazon but have seen no sample in real life, the bright stripe trip hazard colouring appeals. Looking for about 6, so not looking at expensive...

So went back to Llanddwyn Island with no real idea of what I wanted to capture. So did a little experimenting and here's the results. One thing I will add, the Cokin filter I own have to go, the colour cast is very hard to correct, it's compounded if you say have a .3 ND and then add a grad. The...

Is there any way to tell if a body water is likely to be calm or a bit choppy? Like favourable weather conditions, or is it totally dependent on wind speed? Cheers. Mark.

So took a drive up to Fleetwood, my second time there, hoping for a good sunset, anyway it was OK. I got these 2 pictures, I'm happy enough but I know I can do better I just wasn't feeling the composition. Wasn't wasted eveing though as I love being by the sea, more so when the tide is coming...

Is there any kind prevailing weather conditions that are more like to produce early morning mist over water?

So took a quick trip (if a 4 hour round journey is quick) over to Llanddwyn island in Angelsey. I was hoping for a decent sunset, but that didn't happen so I spent some of the time trying out long exposures of the rocks out in the sea. Here's a couple. by Mr Drizz, on Flickr by Mr Drizz...
