Beach #2

Cornwall

The Road leading down to the beach, Sean (in blue) jauntily heading down the hill as the couple returning pass him. I like the double yellow parking lines leading down the road here, into the distance within the photo, and the lamppost that almost frames the people in the image.

Vespa

A Summer’s day, people enjoying the sunshine, the seagulls thankfully not mobbing you for the ice cream in your hand, and then stumbling across this, cool, classic styling in a small package, parked up in a picturesque location. Personally I’m not a huge fan of Vespa’s, not a scooter person me, but you’ve got to appreciate the Italian’s making a thing of beauty such as this.

Lighthouse

A couple of images of the lighthouse that stands on the Harbour wall in St Ives, Cornwall. Both are taken with my Nikon FM with 28mm lens on Agfa Vista Plus 200 film. Personally I prefer the first one, the whole image just jumps out as a classic rule of thirds image but the cloud pattern in the right hand side of the shot I think helps make it more than just empty space their to compliment the main focus of the photograph itself. This first shot is taken at f16 1/500th sec.

That’s not to say I don’t like the second image as well, I think the comparison in size that can be seen between the lighthouse and the metal bollard used for tying ships up to the dock works well and it’s taken in portrait, something I think you’ll have noticed by now I rarely do. This is at f22 1/250th second.

BBQ in the Park

All shots taken with my Nikon FM and 28mm lens on Agfa Vista Plus 200 film.

f5.6 1/125th sec

Jetty

A jetty on the River Taff in Cardiff, on a blazing hot sunny day. Taken with my Olympus OM-1 and 50mm lens on Fomapan Classic 100 film at f5.6 1/500th sec.
