Hello,

A few images of different transport along Blackpool Promenade.

In this post I have included the camera settings, as I wanted to illustrate the different shutter speeds used whilst panning to capture the moving vehicles. All images taken were handheld.

But I am sure you will agree when it works, the images look great and really isolate the moving vehicle in the blurred moving scene.

Hello,

How are you? Have you had a good week?

Today id like to share some images of a job on Blackpool Tower.

The above image is obviously not one of mine, but wanted to show how things have changed, and thank god that they have.

The guys in the past had little or no working at height protection.

These days we use advanced techniques such as rope access, to access these hard to reach places safely.
