I took this image in the New Forest. On this particular day I had a lot of University coursework to do but the weather was just too nice so i decided to get on the train and take the hour and a half journey to the New Forest. I think photography is a valid excuse for not doing work, don’t you? My aim as you should be able to see was to get as sharp shot as possible of this horse’s eye. He was momentarily distracted by my tasty looking camera strap that he decided he would try and eat.
I wanted to use this shot to capture the contrasts of this environment. I was sat at Clapham Junction station and noticed that you would get bursts of people and then a rush of trains and then the whole station would fall into a state of silence as people waited for the next rush. I took this image just as a train rushed through the station, which i think creates a brilliant contrast to the silent individuals waiting on the platforms edge.
I had been waiting for fireworks night for a long time so that I could capture some slow shutter shots like this one. It is a shame the fireworks weren't being fired from the right of the Spinnaker Tower as this would have enabled me to frame the image, but there is always next year I suppose.
This image of the St Malo Church was captured on a trip sailing along the Bretagne coastline. The architecture of this city really captured my attention and the light on this particular day was perfect for a silhouette shot that would highlight the bold limestone structure.
