A recent photograph showing how to shoot pictures in low light. A tripod is essential to minimise camera shake. A long shutter speed of 2 seconds was needed to get a correct exposure as it was so dark. I used the rule of thirds to aid composition and also made the most of the various diagonal lines which are very strong compositional aids.

Beautiful light, beautiful architecture, beautiful location- this is why I am a photographer!

Shot in Eastbourne, Sussex, England. I used a tripod with a cable release and mirror-up. The exposure was several seconds, hence the tripod allows the picture to be sharp. Use a small aperture like F11 for extended depth of field. It also allows the water to blur and become misty. Shot with a Nikon DSLR D2x and medium telephoto of 100mm.

I specialise in one to one photography workshops so if you want to go beyond auto everything on your camera give me a call.

Blackpool, fireworks, Photoshop,




This image was shot at the recent firework competition in Blackpool, Lancashire.

I knew from a previous attempt that the fireworks would be small and hidden behind the pier so I first shot the pier and beach how I wanted it to appear with a 24mm wide angle and then moved under the pier and shot the fireworks separately. I later merged the different images using Layers in Photoshop.
