New York City travel photography | Location photography

I visited New York in November and was able to enjoy the time as a NYC  tourist. It was great fun, amazing place and so much to see, do and photograph. The view from the top of the Empire State building was immense and so peaceful from the 86th floor observatory. You can still see all the hussel and bussel below, but the taxi horns and noise of the busy city is muted.

Here are just a few travel photos from the NYC trip:

Location photography in Dorset – Portland lighthouse

I was over in Portland at the weekend, I took a few snaps whilst I was in the area, thought I would share this one of the lighthouse with some funky clouds. The contrast in the blue and red is quite sticking and caught my eye.

Location photography – a day out at Durdle Door in Dorset

When I woke up today I thought as it was such a lovely day to take advantage of a free afternoon and take a trip out of Bournemouth. We packed a picnic and drove up the Jurassic coast to Durlde Door in Dorset.

I dont always take my professional kit with me when its just a day out, but today I thought I would get my camera geek on and take some reportage and creative location photos. Travelling only with my Canon 5D mk2 and EF 35mm 1.4L lens, great combination, light to carry and outstanding quality and clarity from the professional optics.

Shame someone has decided to graffiti the sign.

Although it was a bit cloudy, I think clouds are fasincating. So used them to my advantage for composition and creativity. Here are some of the edited photos that I wanted to share with everyone:

Sunrise in St Petersburg

On the way back from a gig in St Petersburg, Russia, the sun had just started to come up as we were passing a lake, so we stopped to watch the sunrise.  It was epic, one of those moments being in the right place at the right time. Here is one of the photographs that I took:

By the sea – ‘green collection’

I love living near the beach and the sea, it’s great to be able to get some fresh sea air and enjoy a walk on the sand. I took a few photographs the other day when I went for a walk down Alum Chine, Poole, Dorset. It was an early morning around 8.30am, I was inspired that day by the morning sunshine. All the images were taken on Canon 5D mk2 camera and Canon 35mm 1.4 L lens.

When I got back home I edited the images and a made a small collection, taking influence from the colours of the beach huts. I am planing to release a limited edition range of framed fine art prints from my archive in the near future. Any comments or requests are welcomed.

Here are the samples:
