Canvey Island

About 4 years ago I visited Canvey Island for the first time and really enjoyed walking around its town and its Industrial area. I had to deliver some equipment to Southend just before Christmas and, because the weather wasn’t great, I dodged the beach at Westcliff on Sea (well, the

002/365v4 Resolutions

It’s always quite tricky coming up with a photo to show a concept rather than a specific object, and so it proved today. I fell back on the old “make a list” trick to convey the title, not the most imaginative idea I know. Indeed, I used the very same

001-365v4 – A Grey Start to the Year

The BBC weather forecast suggested mist and -2°C temperatures and a sunrise at 8.06am. I thought that would make a nice shot, maybe not the rising sun, but a bit of mystery from the mist and some frost would make a decent shot. I was to be disappointed. I was

Buzzard Fly Past

We had our weekend walk around Rowney Woods near Saffrom Walden and saw a couple of Buzzrads flying in the distance. Unusually, 1 of them left his usual area and gave us a fly past as he headed off to pastures new.

Pin Mill, Suffolk

Bishop’s Stortford Camera Club had a day out down to the River Orwell and Pin Mill today and I got some shots of the abandoned boats. Conditions weren’t ideal as it was blowing a gale and was heavily overcast all day so I decided to to shoot HDR shots all

Thorpe Bay, Southend-on-Sea

I spent an incredibly blowy afternoon walking amongst the boats at Thorpe Bay this afternoon. I had hoped to be able to get some nice long exposures with great reflections in the water, but that wasn’t to be with the gale blowing in from the sea. Still, I was able
