Big Beautiful Doll RIP

Alas she is no more. This P51D crashed after colliding with a Skyraider at the spring Duxford Flying Legends show. Thankfully the pilot managed to bale out and the Skyraider landed safely minus about 4 feet of wing tip. However, the P51D was a total loss, happily it didn't catch fire but I think the damage was severe enough for it to be a total loss. Sad indeed.

Waterton Park Hotel Wedding

Covered a wedding at Waterton Park Hotel last Friday for Lisa and Alistair, an all day 10 hour shift again. Weather wasn't too kind, in and out with sunshine and rain but managed to get the job done. Took this shot at about 9.30pm as we left, I could get used to living in a house like this. Ah well, if only my numbers would come up, I'm too old to marry into money and the wife and daughter would have something to say about it if I did.

Further example of Leecia's talent with this Photoshop and Graphics melarky. She really is a wizz at it, any graphics work then contact us via the website (she actually has a BA (Hons) degree in the subject from the Batley School of Art and Design for those in the know, but I try not to mention it, she gets too cocky when she realises how proud of her am I).

Malta Photographic Holidays

Malta is a place you either love or hate. Personally, I fell in love with the island when I first visited it many years ago. I love the people, I love the history, I love the food and most of all I love the old buses. Unfortunately, even the resourceful Maltese have had to bow to the inevitable since they are now part of the European Community and these buses have disappeared being replaced by modern rectangles, good for the Maltese but not for me! My daughter and I love the place for the sea and diving, my wife is not so enamoured, preferring to laze in the sun as we two half kill ourselves doing what we do. However, when wearing her photographer hat, she who must be obeyed sees Malta in a different light. It is a place packed full of photographic opportunities, from the environment to the people and the many festivals held on the island.
So, with this in mind, we have decided to offer the opportunity for like minded individuals to visit Malta, to stay in a large villa with swimming pool, to take part in photographic excursions around the island and to receive tutelage in photographic techniques and post processing with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. The holiday/workshop will be £895.00 but please note that flights and insurances are excluded but transport from and to the airport and around the island on trips, plus bed and breakfast, lunch and evening meals for seven nights and IT tutelage is. You will need to provide your own camera gear and laptop with the specified software (Lightroom at least).
Contact us for more details and if we can generate enough interest, then we can book for block seats with Air Malta or EasyJet which will bring the cost of air tickets down as well. So, contact us via the main website where more details and an itinerary is published. Please note that due to day to day operational decisions, the content of photographic itinerary may change but the digital processing will remain the same. 

New York 2

A couple more of New York, remember John Lennon.

San Francisco

More examples of Leecia's handywork from a trip to San Francisco. I hate to admit it but she is far far better than me at Photoshop and in some cases, can see the images I can't, although I am loathed to tell her that.

New York

Leecia spent some time in New York a while ago, these are some images she took whilst there. Made black and white I think they are good enough for posters, you can buy one via our website,
