Oxford

What a city! The sun was out for my first ever trip to Oxford with fellow photographer buddy Lawrence, we shoot together a lot now but this was one of our first together.

You can travel through the tiny streets and explore giant buildings belonging to the University whilst taking in the bustling vibe that is Oxford. Particularly I enjoyed capturing the buildings with a dramatic feel, as if they are giants among the skies.

Uni catch up & Visit to Wisley

Keeping in touch with people is important, which is what I love about my friends from Uni. Despite graduating back in 2012 we have all managed to meet up regularly.

After a night out in Guildford we explored Wisley just down the road, this was my first outdoor trip with the new 5D, I also used my 600D with its wide angle lens to get some great shots in the wood.

My first published photo!

What a surprise it was when my Dad rang me up with the instruction to buy more Mercury newspapers, my photo was in there as image of the week!

This is the first time I have had an image published somewhere and hopefully the start of something bright!

So I brought a Canon 5D

February was a great month as I purchased a camera that myself and many friends had lusted over.  I had never used full frame before my purchase but it felt great in my hands and took some amazing images. I shot a few portraits of family and friends to test.

I’ve been lazy…

2014 has been an amazing year so far, I have already been abroad twice, explored parts of the UK that I have never been to before, received promotion at work and received a new qualification to my name. I have shot a music video which is in post production, been creating more content for my time lapse film which I started in 2012 and more importantly I have been working very hard on my Flickr portfolio which has lead to my blog seeming rather redundant. It looks like I’ve been lazy (in reference to my title) but I have had the best 6 months so far and will do my best to share my experiences. More to be added…

 

Recently I have learnt new editing techniques which has lead to an improvement in my images. (See title photo).
