Out with the camera club this evening and photographing light trails on the M11. There was quite a lot of police activity, hence the blue lights shown here…I actually made a timelapse of the evening which you can see below and is actually what I set out to make in
I took a walk down to the Thames Barrier with my camera the other week and took this long exposure shot of Number 8, which is the second nearest barrier to the South shore. Featured is the black and white version but you can also see a colour version below.

I took a quick trot down to Lower Holbrook and my stretch of beach this lunchtime armed with my 2 cameras, one digital, one film and my 16 stop ND filter. This shot took 350 seconds to take..just short of 6 minutes. You then have to wait another 6 minutes
