Southwold

For the second half of my day I moved further along the coast to Southwold the beach had lots of people enjoying this early spring day. 














I have noticed that I have only to point my camera in the vague direction of some people and they instantly strike a pose, I guess that it’s due to the selfie habit

Sizewell

Having looked at the forecast for yesterday it dictated my destination for my day’s photography. The weather was going to be bright all day on the east coast above Felixstowe so I set off for Sizewell B the next venue for my beach quest.  The forecast turned out to be 100% accurate, on my way home I drove over lots of wet roads with overcast skies yet I had enjoyed a brilliant day which is what I needed for this shoot.


I met a guy that works at the power station & he pointed out the birds using the thermals that are generated from the white dome over the reactor.  He also said that the water outfall is a good feeding station for the birds as the warm water attracts lots of fish.

Wimpole Hall

This Easter Sunday the weather has been bright sunshine one minute and then pouring with rain the next so I have started another project that I have been thinking about for sometime. Shooting in wet conditions, what would normally be considered as very poor light. Using bokeh , reflections, wet surfaces and glowering skies. Ann Miles gave a lecture sometime ago on using all the light conditions that come your way so here goes I have made a start.
