Like many people I am back to the grind today after the festive break. I didn’t drop the ball too much over Christmas. I reduced my workouts and how much work I was doing, but I still kept things ticking over. It makes it less of a shock to the system today now I’m back in the office with everyone.
I caught this lovely sunrise on my walk into the office this morning.…
It was our gym’s Christmas night out on Saturday, so when I awoke on Sunday I wasn’t feeling fresh and could have slept longer. I looked out the window, though, and saw a blanket of fog and fog is a photographer’s best friend! I immediately grabbed my camera, Indie and went outside to play.
I’m so glad I walked home on this evening instead of getting a taxi. The sky was doing some interesting things.…
This is home.…
The sky did good this morning. Indie and I walked around the Clyde with my camera. I don’t often take my camera on morning walks, but I’m trying to get into the habit of having it with me more often.
Glasgow feels like home. I love living here. I love walking Indie around the Clyde on days like this. It was a perfect Sunday. Well, minus the football result.…
Indie and I are wishing you all a happy new year from Glasgow in Scotland. I promise to take more photos in 2017. My blog is feeling a little neglected, but it’s purely because I’ve been focusing on building Jack. Photography is still important to me. I hope you have a creative year ahead!
I shot this at ƒ20 with a 30 second exposure. How did I do such a thing in broad daylight? Because I got a ND filter from Wex Photographic! I’m late to the filter game. I actually have quite a minimal set-up with my equipment (well, I think I do), so I tend to refrain from adding accessories to my camera bag, but it’s fun to do something different. I don’t often shoot landscapes, but I’ll be trying more of them now I have this filter. I’ve even attempted some 5 minute exposures at night, although those didn’t turn out so well… Practice!
This weekend saw my friend, Elisha, visit from Ireland. Elisha is a fellow photographer, so I had planned on taking a lot of photos. Sadly, whenever I have a friend travel a significant distance to visit me, Glasgow decides it’s monsoon season. But any weekend I get to eat at Tribeca, Lebowskis and St Louis – and wash it down with a coffee from Artisan Roast – is a good one. Elisha also let me use her 50mm ƒ1.2 for most of the weekend!
