Clevedon Pier

When the weather gets a bit moody and most sensible people go in doors to escape the rain especially those with camera, it is sometimes worth while staying out that little bit longer. The following three pictures taken of Clevedon Pier show the difference that can be achieved from changing the shutter speed and angle to create an impression from essentially the same spot. The first picture has a 4 second exposure, the second has a 21 second exposure causing the soft sky and water and the third has a 10 second exposure the “cotton wool’ effect of the water whilst still retaining some form to the waives.

Fort William, Scotland.

I love visiting Scotland when I get the chance. Having friends in Fort William is a bonus, if you ever get a chance to visit, pop into the Moorings Hotel, Fort William and say high to Donald, “Wee” John, “Whisky” John and “Laundry” John. Great place, lovely people.

Sunrise on Lymington River, Sunset on Hatchet Pond

I feel fortunate to live in Lymington on the edge of the New Forest. It is a wonderful area with the water about 10 minutes walk from the house.
