After my success a couple of days ago I now have another Front Page Image on PurplePort. This photo called “Getting Carried Away” was great fun to do and it’s something I can provide as part of my Family Photography. If you are interested get in touch and let’s talk about your ideas or take a look at my Family Portrait Page Always start with the thought that anything is possible.
This is one of my favourite photos so I’m pleased to say Top Dog has been awarded “Front Page Image” status on PurplePort. PurplePort is an online forum for photographers, models, MUAs, dress designers etc. and there are some very talented people there so this is a nice feather in my cap. This has led to an interesting offer from a London studio. It would great to get my work seen a bit more in the big city.
I did a family photo shoot with Geoff, Katie and the girls a few years back and this image that came from the shoot is still one of my favourites. It does me pretty well in various photo competitions and again won a small prize for me yesterday. The whole process of this kind of shoot is a lot of fun for everybody involved and can create some images above and beyond the “usual”. The photos can also make great presents for Nan and Grandad for birthdays or even Father’s Day.

So today our Blue Tits were leaving the box. Lovely little things and a rare chance to use my 50mm macro lens to photograph birds.
Both these pictures are of the same tern fishing for prawns down at Pennington Marshes. They were taken 5 minutes apart at around 6.30am. I rely mostly on timing rather than burst rate so I’m pretty pleased with both of them. One photo doesn’t seem to do fantastically well in competitions. It’s as if the judge/viewer can’t work out what is going on. One judge even turned the print through 90 degrees because he thought it might have been presented the wrong way round. The other scored a 10/10 and a seal last night at the club. So which do you prefer?

Jo and I had a lovely extended break in Indonesia. It’s a superb place to go with your camera. The people are lovely and very welcoming. The landscape is beautiful and the wildlife ranges from Komodo Dragons, to beautiful coral reefs together with giant manta, sharks, turtles, eagles, sunbirds and flying foxes. Here are a few photos but I shall be posting more.
