My Image library has had some more work done to it -- and I have started to sell from it . Still more work to be done.
Ely Cathedral

I was commissioned yesterday to do some routine property photography at Ely in Cambridgeshire, it was some way to get there so I decided to make a day of it. If you are a photographer that is into interiors, then Ely Cathedral is an absolute gem. An additional £2.00 to the entrance fee secures you the right to use a tripod -essential for slow exposures where no lighting can be used - fantastic value. I spent a happy couple of hours chasing the low winter light to get some wonderful images. Finally, if you are still there when Choral Evensong takes place put you camera away and enjoy a wonderful spiritual experience as well!
Here are a couple of shots I took.
The Nave , 24mm T/S Tripod Mounted F9 at .8 second.
The Octagon - Tripod mounted, Sigma 12-24 mm at 12mm F9 at 1.6 second Cropped 2:1

Welcome to 2010!
If you live in the UK its come with an icy blast - we are told it is the coldest winter in 30 years ! It is not often that you get large quantities of snow, sunshine and blue skies in this country . Like most photographers it always takes a week or two before commissions / work start to come in so get your warm clothes on, blow away Christmas, and get some library shots of the local area, if they are any good, they will sell at some stage.
Chesterton Windmill must be one of the most photographed buildings in Warwickshire - there were at least two other photographers lurking when I took this
