start of the day wasn’t promising, all locations i’ve planned to visit were in fog and in clouds, so i decided to go to bled to take some misty lake photos. there were no colours at all and visibility was no good, but suddenly something has changed. and here’s the result. winter sunsets at bled are amazing…

During the second clear night in a row at Grundarfjörður finally the dancing lady came to visit us for a short but beautiful show …

I do not believe in God, but it is moments like this when I seriously start to doubt that disbelief.

The night started off at 2am, waking up and getting out of bed not long after I had gotten in. I looked out the window and the sky was coated with low hanging, thick cloud. I got back into bed, I lay there a moment. The weather forecast had been for clear, beautiful skies over Durdle Door – my eyes argued the opposite. Eventually, against my better judgement, I got out of bed and headed for the coast.

Half an hour later I arrived to find my friend Matt already there. Durdle Door is a pain in the arse sometimes, as they lock the gates to the dark park so that you cannot pay for parking and then fine you £90 when you park somewhere close. Still, we knew we would be gone before the place opened up so we left the cars there, put on as many layers as we could and then sauntered down towards Durdle Door.

When shooting the Milky Way (and I am no expert from a photography sense) you need to first let your eyes adapt to the darkness. Once you have been in complete darkness for a around 20 minutes, when you look in the direction of our galactic core, you can slowly start to see the dust and clouds that form the band you see in the image above. As for taking the image, I find that shooting with a large aperture lens, such as an F/1.4 is best and setting your ISO no higher than 3200.

Anyway, it was freezing at Durdle Door this morning, I mean really freezing. Matt and I lasted there until about 5.30am, when we realised it wasn’t going to be the best sunset and we packed up and headed for McDonalds. For once, he even paid!

Une fin de journée de mars, au beau milieu du Parc national des Pyrénées , sur les hauteurs de Cauterets, mon œil a été attiré par ces cailloux recouverts d’un épais manteau neigeux qui me faisait penser à des moutons, j’ai donc décidé de sortir mon appareil pour exploiter ce magnifique endroit .

A late March day in the middle of the Pyrenees National Park, in the heights of Cauterets, my eye was drawn to these pebbles covered with thick snow which made ​​me think of sheep, so I decided out my camera to exploit this beautiful place.

This dying storm over Rapid City on June 1st, 2015 was so amazing…so many bolts came out of it, I was in total heaven. This is the fourth image from this spot that I’ve shared, and I still have a couple more strikes that I might edit at some point!

But it just has me itching to do some chasing…cannot wait to get out there!
Haven’t posted much in the past week, been on a little vacation with the wife enjoying a much needed break from the kiddos and work. Back now though and ready for things to get crazy again!
