Assignment 1

I have updated my Assignment 1 after reading and digesting the report from my tutor.
I feel that for a first assignment it was on the whole successful.
I am now reading my way through a lot of books.  An advantage of my work is that with a lot of travelling and time away from home I can pass my spare time reading if I can't get out with my camera.

I have made god ground with Part 2 of the course and I feel that even without pushing myself too hard I may be preparing my next assignment early.

Another week away..

With work taking me away again it has been an ideal time to read.  The only problem is the more I read the more books I order... Another three books arrived today with another two on the way.

The problem with the pocket books is that they have just enough information to get you interested but leave you hanging.  As I read through "Masters of Photography, Classic Photographic Artists of Our Time.  Reuel Golden."  I order more books as interest and money sees fit.

Part 2 is on it's way soon.

I managed to get some more photographs for part 2 done today.  Will try and get my assignment 1 finalised soon so that I can put it to bed.  Still going through a BW moment.

Taking my work away again...

This time I'm away for a short break, bags are nearly packed and the memory cards are empty.  I will try to get some images that are suitable for my exercises, but family photo's will come first.  I just hope that I need some pictures of European Mice soon.
I have updated my reading list, I've just run out of time to get updated on Assignment 1.  I have nearly what I want... apart from time but this time it's my fault.

Assignment 1

After reading my feedback from assignment 1 I have been capturing images and making adjustments to some of the images submitted.  I was pleased with the feedback as I felt it was fair and just.

I have also made good head way with "Part 2" and hopefully I will have something to show for it on the blog soon.

Got off my butt...

"Clacton-On-Sea is hosting a BKSA kitesurfing competition on the Easter weekend."


A fantastic sport and a fantastic opportunity to get some photographs....(don't try it without lessons, it is very dangerous)... Just one problem, not enough wind.  So very little was happening.  With a little improvisation and a change of direction I think I managed to get some photographs in the bag.

Little done...

With work taking me to Scotland for a few days I was hopeful that I would get plenty of work done with my camera.... wrong.... I managed to get just one photograph while I was up North of the border.  On the other hand, I did manage to get some reading done on the bus...
