A frosty morning in FrinstedThis one of those beautiful Autumn events - a bright clear frosty morning with beautifully clear light. Taken with a Canon EOS 20D and a 10 - 22mm lens. |
Hopfields and orchards, Harbledown near CanterburyThis image suffers through being in such a wide format as I am limited to 700 pixels width to display it. It was shot on a winter's afternoon and I was standing at the edge of the A2 dual- carriageway trying to set up my camera on a tripod whilst simultaneously avoiding being sucked under the wheels of the traffic by the slipstream of French juggernauts! Ah! the quiet and tranquility of the Kent countryside........ |
Morning fog over Herne Hill, FavershamThis was an incredible morning when the landscape went from being completely covered in fog, with nothing visible except for the church, to a point where it was completely clear in under 5 minutes - very much a case of "blink and you missed it!" The puff of smoke in the sky is the Grain power station over on the Hoo peninsular. There is a very restrained purple duo-toning in the photograph to try to convey the cold and dankness in the air. |
Scuds of snow on a winters fieldThis was shot just outside Canterbury on one of those days in February when it really wanted to snow - but just could not be bothered! I have toned a black and white conversion to emphasize the cold |
Orchard, Chartham Hatch, near CanterburyThis a straight print, converted to B&W i Photoshop. I used curves layers to emphasise the line of shadow. |
Straw bales waiting, RodmershamDifficult to resist these architectural shapes which suddenly appear in the fields for only a short time each year! I like the lines that the juxtaposition of these four form. Canon EOS20D; ISO 200; 10-22mm lens @ 10mm; 1/800, f7.1 |
