Sundown Sky

Early Evening

 Nikon D5200, Sigma 10-20mm EX DC, iso 160, f8, 1/200th sec.

Stadium Walk

This is an image I took while out shooting street photography, those of you who have seen this site should know that I only shoot that in black and white, but this one I felt just had to stay in colour, the gloom with the underlying orange sky beneath the cloud’s couldn’t really be shown in monochrome.

 Olympus OM-D EM-5, 17mm M.Zuiko 1:1.8, ISO 200, f1.8, 1/4000th sec.

Sea Like Glass

 Nikon D5200, 10-20mm 4-5.6 EX DC, ND Grad 0.3 & ND1000 filters, ISO 100, F9, 10 Seconds.

Lifeboat Launch

 Nikon D5200, Sigma 10-20mm 4-5.6 EX DC, ND Grad 0.6, ISO 100, F8, 1/100th Sec.

Barafundle Bay

As tradition dictates it’s once again time for an example from my digital portfolio, you may be sensing a theme here (I do particularly like landscapes).

Caerphilly Mountain Sunset

Taken on my Nikon D5200 with Sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6 EX DC,  f11 0.6 sec with stacked 0.6 and 0.9 ND Grad filters.

Experiment with colour

I was given some expired film, Truprint ISO 400, by my girlfriends dad a while back. I have no idea how out of date it was, there was not expiry date printed on it, but my best guess would be sometime around 2004 as it had been stored with a load of APS film with expiry dates ranging from October 2003 to October 2004. It hadn’t been stored in a fridge or anything like that, just a drawer for at least ten years so I was in two minds about using it, I’d always wanted to shoot with really old, expired film, but always assumed if it hadn’t been stored correctly it would be far too degraded to give any images that weren’t just a oddly coloured mess. How wrong I was. Below are a selection of images I took using the Nikon FM with 28mm lens, some have beautiful grain and some have a wonderful warm, sepia glow, in my opinion all are a resounding success.

Penarth Pier Sundown

It’s been a month since I started this blog, woohoo go me for actually sticking something out for once, and as that’s the case I thought I’d do something a little different.

Walk on the Pier 2

So the other week I posted a photo of a pretty similar scene to this taken with a 50mm lens on Canon AE-1, this one was taken with a 28mm lens with Nikon FM. Thought it might be interesting to post this as well, bit of a comparison to the other shot which can be found here.
