Car Photography.

in ,

Hello,

Today I’d like to share some car recent car photography.

It has been a while since I last dusted off the 1200w Elinchrom, and I thought that it was time to have a play.

If you are anyone you know, that has a high end, or collectable car, please DM me on instagram

Importance of revisiting a scene.

in ,

Good morning,

Today I’d like to discus the importance of revisiting the same location on different days. The above images were taken weeks apart. I really felt that there was to be a nice photo of this location.

The first one was flat and did not have that hit for me. I liked the second as can feel how violent the weather was on that day. I even got absoltuley soaked.

But my faviourite has to be the third image. I love the dramatic lighting and how the building pops from the scene.

Revisiting the same landscape site on different occasions to capture changing weather conditions is essential for improving your landscape photography. It allows you to capture a variety of moods, showcase the location’s full potential, enhance your technical skills, build a diverse portfolio, deepen your connection with the landscape, and seize unique, unpredictable moments. This practice not only enriches your collection of photographs but also hones your abilities and creativity as a photographer.

Thanks,

Noord pier IJmuiden

in ,

Good morning,

Today is a quick post, where I’d like to share a couple of images of the North Pier in IJmuiden.

A very early rise to cycle to this location, fly my drone, take a couple of snaps and then head back to the hotel to get ready for work.

As you will agree these images are very different from the first time I visited this location.

It is always fun to roll the early morning dice and see if the weather gods help you out.

Thanks,

Of the complex, which is a national monument , a water tower and filter building remain . It was built between 1914 and 1915. The former drinking water supply is located in a park-like environment, which has come to be called the Watertorenpark .

Arbroath Harbour

in

Good morning,

Today I’d like to share some images taken of Arbroath Harbour.

I have visited this location a few times now, and when the weather plays ball, it makes all the difference.

The harbour, medieval in origin, was improved by John Gibb in 1838-9 and then enlarged by James Leslie in 1841-46 to contain an area of 2.4 hectares within sea walls of red sandstone.

The old harbour of 1725 was converted into a wet dock in 1877 - the wrought iron gates are now kept open.

Thanks,

Former Kirkton of Craig, Parish Church

in ,

Good morning,

Continuing with my church project, here are some images of a church near to where I work in the tiny village of Kirkton of Craig.

One caveat to my project, during the time taking the images, I realised that this is no longer a place of warship and is now a residential house.

Craig Parish Church was built in 1799 by Richard Crichton, an associate of Robert Adam. It is the earliest Gothic Revival church in Scotland. The church consists of an aisled nave and west tower and is situated in small grounds overlooking Montrose Basin and close to the coastal town. The building shows some interesting transitional details and is A-listed. It went out of ecclesiastical use some time ago and is now a private house.

Thanks,

Lee

Sunrise stood on the A92.

in ,

Good morning,

Today is a short post of some images that were taken whilst I had some time to kill one morning.

I arrived at work early and could see the gorgeous light coming up. I stood on the A92 bridge in Montrose and took the above image.

Then turning 180 degrees to shoot the railway bridge, I waited for the trains to pass.

I personally really like how the sunlight has made the train golden.

Thanks,

Lee
