Hellish ride tonight. Only 20 miles but 2500ft of climbing.
Brilliant views over Teesside though!
S4 camera phone - good but not awesome.

Visited Redcar today for the first time in a long time.
Very run down seaside resort in the north east of England that actually looked like it had a bit of life injected back into it of late.
The vertical peer, new sea defence walls, the place was buzzing on this worm sunny day.
Snapped this guy in a pensive mood!

My portrait of "Unknown Lady" was selected to be displayed locally in a display of local artists. Open to photographers, painters, tapestry (see the work to the left)
Was pretty chuffed that my favourite portrait of this lovely unknown lady was chosen to be displayed. It will be on display for around 2 months and im hoping she or someone who knows her might see it and get in touch with me, where it eill give me tge opportunity to give them the canvas.

Archie messing about in the back garden today.
Of course everything is hilarious to a 21 month old child and they make some fantastic expressions. It's the uncontrollable flexing of arms that always amuses me!
My new Tamaron lens, vignetted in LR 4, temp brought up a little, blacks increased a little also and heavily cropped.

Anyone who is into mountain biking and has the strava app will appreciate this. The rest of you - talk amongst yourselves.
Delighted to get home and see this after uploading my ride tonoight....especially as the guy in position 2 in my best mate....BOOM!

Despite the expression this guy was actually very nice.
Number 4 in my #100strangers project, I met him on the streets of York - U.K. promoting "Ghost Walks" around the city. We had a brief chat about cameras (he had a canon - like me, but a much better one than mine he pointed out!!)
He scared my children slightly before moving on to further promote his business. But not before kindly posing for a couple of shots.....this one being my favourite.
Pretty much #sooc other than some slight vignetting.

No Pain No Gain
Heavily - heavily cropped image so not really happy with the sharpness.

The Tees Regatta again from last weekend.
Obvious vignetting and I played around with the saturation aswell. It was a very flat grey day so I didn't have much to work with.
Edited in my newly acquired Lightroom 4.4

A re-share of a portrait photo I took last year.
The reason for sharing once again is that I have recently been asked to display this photo in a gallery.
The original story was that I met this old lady outside of a local church. I approached her and engaged in conversation and we chatted for around 5 minutes, after which I asked if I could take her portrait. She seemed slightly uneasy (maybe shocked at such a request) but said yes nonetheless. I loved the outcome so I had a print made for her and took it to the church some weeks later. Not knowing her name I asked one of the parishioners who were there if they recognised her. They said yes immediately so I left it with them to pass on to her.
She may have placed it somewhere in her home, put it in a drawer or thrown it away - either way I love the shot and it reminds me of a time when I met a lovely old lady who was happy to j... more »

Technically there is so much I could have done better with this shot but it was one of those moments that you just had to capture quickly.
I cropped it heavily at first but then changed my mind as I could leave out my sister in laws reaction at the bottom of the shot.

Taking a look through the brilliant +Thorn Button 's photos, it reminded me of a self portrait I took whilst being inspired by Thorn's work.
Thought I would re-share.

Inspired by +Terry Lambert and his recently found passion for B+W photography, I've revisited a shot I took at Saltburn almost a year ago. Heavily cropped from the original and given the B+W treatment...

Managed to finally get out with the camera tonight, although I didn't have chance to use my new lens - I'll keep that for another time.....
Here is the Transporter Bridge from the south shore of the River Tees in Middlesbrough.

Whether you write the day first (or incorrectly like our American friends :-))...today is 12/12/12
Surely some people somewhere will think the world is going to end at 12 minutes past mi-day today. For those people, please enjoy Snow Patrol - Chocolate one last time. Superb music video showing the end of the world.

This is the first time any of my photographs have been displayed publicly.
Probably my favorite shot that I've taken over the last 12 months since I've taken up photography is this one - the Infinity Bridge in Stockton-on-Tees. I've had loads of positive comments, I just need someone to offer to buy it off me now to cover the canvas costs!!

OK so I'm after a bit of advice. Im looking into getting my first zoom lens and Im looking at the entry level end of the spectrum.
I am looking specifically at the Canon EF-S 55-250 f4-5.6 for my Canon 1100D body. Anyone have / used this lens and can offer any advice?

The object of yesterdays walk
Captain Cook's Monument
The inscription on the monument reads:
In memory of the celebrated circumnavigator Captain James Cook F.R.S. A man of nautical knowledge inferior to none, in zeal prudence and energy, superior to most. Regardless of danger he opened an intercourse with the Friendly Isles and other parts of the Southern Hemisphere. He was born at Marton Oct. 27th 1728 and massacred at Owythee Feb. 14th 1779 to the inexpressible grief of his countrymen. While the art of navigation shall be cultivated among men, whilst the spirit of enterprise, commerce and philanthropy shall animate the sons of Britain, while it shall be deemed the honour of a Christian Nation to spread civilisation and the blessings of the Christian faith among pagan and savage tribes, so long will the name of Captain Cook stand out amongst the most celebrated and... more »

So, the start of another week away from my fiance and kids.....
Forgot my camera aswell, however i dont think Warrington has much to offer in the way of inspiration.
Google + on my tablet is just awful aswell.
Yes...im feeling sorry for myself.

Looking through my Google+ statistics (I love statistics) I notice that 6 people un-circled me on Saturday. I posted 3 photos that day that received more +1's than any of my other photos. Curious. I can only assume those 6 people don't like Saltburn Pier or benches.
