Life Before death.

There is a really powerful article in the Guardian newspaper about the photography of German photographer Walter Schels and his partner Beate Lakotta. He has interviewed people and taken their portraits before and after death. It is a really powerful article that also makes you feel uncomfortable. I recommend making it through all 22 paragraphs and photographs!

Good Friday

I had a bit of a play in what is rapidly becoming my home studio.

Good Friday

Scott Kelby

In my quest to become a better and more all round photographer I have been reading some stuff by Scott Kelby.  I’ve found his style much less annoying than when I picked up his Digital Photography Book which starts with some of the worst jokes ever.  I guess I kept reading it because I was staying at a relatives and found a copy on the coffee table. 

 I recently discovered his blog and it seems to have some good stuff.  He covers many different styles of photography so he doesn’t go into huge detail like at strobist but he does give tips in areas I don’t regularly shoot.

That Inky Blackness

Here is another shot from around Leeds at night.  This is oposite the Royal Armories in Clarence Dock.  This was taken on a walk from Brewery Wharfe a week ago.

Clarence Dock

One of my photographic passions is long exposure photography.  I’m also a city dweller so I love taking shots of the city.  This is a recent example from a trip out to Brewery Warfe in Leeds.  This is Clarence Dock next to the Royal Armories.  The sky was amazing that night with the clouds lit up as they moved in the high winds.
