FRPS

Nov 9th 2009 FRPS
Well that was a massive relief and I never want to see those pictures again!
I heard today I have been awarded my Fellowship of the Royal Photographic Society and of course I am over the moon!
The project started when I was invited to make re-creations of well known paintings for Digital Photographer and Creative Imaging Magazine - with screen grabs of the whole process.  Some of these images took over a month to complete but I loved every minute of it. I have my models to thank - my own daughter, Rachael,  my friends daughter Sarah, my Nymph, and not forgetting Jessica of the Pre Raph hair, my "Pandora" and Margie, my "Persephone".  Thanks to my friends for their support and making me carry on when I failed it the first time!
Now I can relax - and make pictures.   Back to the greenhouse - - -

Minamitane

Jonathan Hillhouse - film photographer extraordinaire. Wonderful monochrome and colour photographs - he has a style of his own that stands out in a crowd. Jonathan spent time on Tanegashima, a small island in Southern Japan. THe photograhs here are stunning - -

Day of the Fox

Had a dental appointment today and on the way back I stopped the car to take photos of some horses in the field - to try out my new camera. I took a few photos  and was on the way back  because the light was very harsh.  I heard a rustling in the leaves - and a fox came by. As the lens is only 20mm I didn't get  decent shot of him but it felt  like a good omen. More magick.  Picture "Spot the Fox"

Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition

The Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition is at Liverpool Cathedral to coincide with Liverpool’s Year of the Environment 09. Fantastic photography - highlighting some of the World’s endangered species. Just a pity about the lighting - it was very difficult to see some exhibits - but overall, a terrific day out!
