Turn Back Time

8/2/2022

0 Comments

 
My friend Andy and myself's latest photo challenge was 'Turn Back Time'; the idea was to take some photo's that could appear to have been taken in a bygone era. I used a little 'poetic licence' with help from friends Jo, Rich and Bernard and stage managed a couple of my shots. I feel the theme sort of allows you to do that. I decided that all my images would be converted to mono and be in square format (thinking of 120,620,828 film formats),and I also added a 'film type' (Tri-X 400), a subtle Sepia tone and old style borders to a few to give a retro effect. The night shots were taken in Monmouth where the Savoy Cinema is one of the oldest in Wales. I shot from this angle as the Ad board was promoting a modern day film. The village shots of Jo and Richard were taken in Clearwell which has some lovely old buildings. Bernard renovates old cars in an even older garage. The Dean Valley Steam Train is probably a bit of a cheat but seems to complete the set.  
​The set can be found on my project page here.    Below are some 
additional images that follows the theme.

Motocross

One of my neighbours 8 year old son is into motocross and was having a practice day today and his father asked me to take some photo's at the event. This was my very first attempt at motocross photography and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Need to practice more but 'nailed' a few good shots and hopefully I can attend more meetings in the future adding to this portfolio

Thanks to my golfing friend Bill for helping me find this Festive Forest Surprise.
​How lovely that people can take the time to decorate trees in the forest to share a little bit of love and kindness to the locals who live here and to fortunate visitors who may find it by accident.  It’s great to be living among some wonderful folks.

On reviewing my photographs over the last year I was surprised at how many nice images I had of landscapes and seascapes.  I decided to create a coffee table photo book for them as well as creating a slide show which is now on the home page of my website here.

porsche group - Landridrod Wells

8/12/2021

0 Comments

 
Last weekend I had the pleasure of joining the Porsche Enthusiasts Group for a three-day trip to Llandrdrod Wells in West Wales.  I met up with a small group at Chepstow peace course and we then drove past the Brecons to the very nice Metropole Hotel. There were around 21 cars in total and a very sociable occasion it was over the weekend.  Saturdays drive stipulated the compulsory wearing of Christmas Jumpers and I chose to go to Tywyn on the coast.     Although very cold and breezy, the sunshine and the weather conditions along with the beautiful scenery provided for some lovely photo' opportunities; here are a few.
