Messing in the kitchen




What is it? You are probably asking yourself. Well, I poured a few drops of olive oil on some water I had put in a glass dish. Under the dish I had placed a CD and a yellow card. The result is rather abstract.

A walk in Bedfords Park




A quiet stroll in Bedfords Park, all the way down to the pond, I managed to get my first dragonfly, at long last!
Also got the swan at the same time.

Perfect portrait


Although taken outside, a simple flashgun with a brolly and a reflector did the trick! I think Ruk might now consider new career options?

You do not have to go far to get great shots. East Ham nature reserve of all locations gave us the background for an amazing photo session. Many thanks to our ever so patient model, the one and only Ruk.

British Wildlife






















Another outing with Pam took us to the British Wildlife centre in Lingfield in Surrey. We came really close with foxes, otters and even snakes! New lens proved once again it could give wonderfully sharp photographs.
