A selection of classic views of Bruges, ones that we will always remember our trip by. Jen walking by a canal – we did a fair bit of walking. [EXIF: 1/200sec @ f/8; ISO 100; Sony ILCE-7R; Sony FE 16-35 F4 ZA OSS @ 35mm] The passageway that leads into De Burg square. [EXIF: 1/125sec …
Apart from the canals you have a choice – bikes or carriages. The locals use the former and they appear to have priority over everything, cars and pedestrians! The ones above I would guess have just been fished out of the canal and are waiting to be reclaimed. [EXIF: 1/250sec @ f/4; ISO 100; Sony …
Jenny and I had a lovely couple of days in Bruges having travelled there on the Eurostar to Brussels. The weather was spectacular – the sky was really this blue! Hardly any Lightroom “enhancements” to these images. These shots were taken very close to where we stayed in the Pand Hotel and it’s …
A final set of shots from the trip taken at Rydal Water and “featuring” … The Boathouse. An exercise in composition. I’d be interested in hearing which one you like best, and why? [EXIF: 1.6sec @ f/16; ISO 50; Sony ILCE-7R; Sony FE 24-105 F4 G OSS @ 63mm] [EXIF: 1.3sec @ f/15; ISO …

Four shots with no connection between them. Above, a different view of the Langdale Pikes taken from above Chapel Stile. [EXIF: 1/30 @f/16; ISO 200; Sony ILCE-7R; Sony FE 24-105 F4 G OSS @ 69mm] Above a farmhouse near Chapel Stile in Great Langdale. [EXIF: 1/320 @f/8; ISO 200; Sony ILCE-7R; Sony FE 24-105 F4 G OSS …
Waiting to catch the light! Something that marks you out as different from the tourist photographer who doesn’t have the time to stop and wait. On a cloudy day you have a number of options: 1) wait for the sunlight to break through in the places you want to accentuate and focus on; 2) avoid …
I’ve been on quite a few photo workshops with Nick Jenkins – I think my photography is improving, but can I be sure it’s down to his tuition??? One of the regular problems I have when I start a workshop is “getting in the zone”. The leader takes you to a place and says, “there’s …
