Calm
I took this photo at Hoylake a couple of weekends ago – I haven’t been so cold in a long time! I was struggling to get steady shots with a tripod as I was dithering so much – there was a mother and daughter there at the same time trying to get the same shot but with a tiny compact camera – after many attempts and much swearing, they eventually gave in. I like the dampening effect that fog has on the surrounding area – it was so quiet it was eerie. Bitterly, bitterly cold day.
Meet Me At The Pier II
Another shot from the archives – new stuff coming soon. This is the underside of the pier at Southport, again from February. I was cursing the lack of a tripod when I was taking these shots as I wanted to try out the bracketing feature on my new D90 but the wind was that fierce I doubt one would have been much use anyway. Although it looks nice and sunny this was a proper hat, gloves and scarf day. I love winter me!
Giant steps are what you take…Southport Waterfront
Feeling a bit mojo-less at the moment – not really enjoying any of the shots I’ve taken recently so have one from the archives. This is Southport beach in February – very cold, very windy and very barren.
