020-365v4 Minimalist Abstraction

Yesterday evening at Bishop’s Stortford Camera Club we had a talk via Zoom from a very fine architectural photographer Iñaki Hernández-Lasa who discussed, amongst other things, abstract and minimalist photography – it’s well worth taking a look at his web site for some fantastic images. Now Iñaki has the advantage

271/365v3 – The Lesser-Spotted Photographers

Tonight’s Camera Club trip was to go and stake out a couple of badger sets out in the Essex countryside. We split into two groups and made our way to our allocated sets. We saw nothing…except our each other for the couple of hours we staked out the area. The

264/365v3 – Emergence

This evening we spent a pleasant couple of hours in one of Bishop’s Stortford Camera Club’s members gardens being shown how she creates some amazing shots that have wowed everyone over the last few years. I enjoyed this flower, I have no idea what it is called but only one

251/365v3 – The Boiler

Every year we have an evening of burning wire wool and creating spark pictures with the Bishop’s Stortford Camera Club. I saw this treatment pretty quickly because it reminded me of The Specials AKA 7″ cover for their single The Boiler…

That’s it, I’ve had enough…I’ve seen more bluebells this year than I have in the rest of my life put together and I’m officially bored of them now…for at least the next 11 months anyway!

139/365v3 – Double Trouble

I am not a portrait photographer! I don’t know why portraits cause me such issues, stick me in front of a landscape and all is fine, put a human in front of me and I can barely operate the camera…it’s very odd because I don’t have problems talking to people

020/365v3 Bursting Balloons in Stortford

Can you see the tenuous link to yesterday’s photo? I know it’s neither a window or a reflection, but you just can’t beat firing air gun pellets at water filled balloons and photographing the resultant explosion! This was done using a trigger trap and 2 flash guns at Bishops Stortford
