Waves on Blackpool Sands

We went down to Blackpool Sands on a mostly sunny day and I got quite a few shots there and, a little later, at Slapton.  The above is looking out over Start Bay – the combination of the light on the water and the cloud was great.

Changeable weather around Dawlish Warren

It was time to get back to the coast again after some nice walks on Dartmoor.  There was only one day in the week when the forecast was for good weather so we headed over to Dawlish Warren.  My last blog was from the summer of 2010 and [...]

Dartmoor snow report (December 1 2010)

Around 50% of the hits on this blog for the past week have had some variation of  “dartmoor snow” in the search.  In practice Devon has had very little of the snow that has been affecting the UK over that week.  However some did fall in the past couple of [...]

A different take on dawn

The sea and the sky

A short evening wander around the centre of Torbay and I found from a photographic perspective that looking down at the sea and up at the sky was the most rewarding.

At Goodrington the last light of the sun on the waves looked good.  The area has some colourful buoys [...]

A tale of two lenses

I’ve been thinking about changing my camera for a while now and not for another Sony for a few reasons.  Given this I’d not looked at getting any other lenses as I’d not be using them on a new camera.  However conversations with a couple of friends made me rethink my plans a [...]

Varying Winter light

Out and about locally yesterday gave some differing and interesting light conditions. In the morning I was in Torbay wandering around on the coast.

The combination of the light and cloud over the Berry Head headland were very striking (and appealing). The light on a sea that was quite calm [...]
