Hello!!

It has been a while but I have been busy with new pictures!! In the meann while I have sold some of the new square pictures with some special orders. I had three photos – two 8 inch and a 20 inch canvas – in the Lime Kilns Festival exhibtion which raised some good comments but failed to sell!! Also the new website is doing well tamarvalleyphotos.co.uk Here are a few new ones that will be going on sale very soon! Just bought more Christmas decorations for this years Christmas Corporate emails which I am offering to all clients (in due course!).
Just has back from the printers a 5 foot 2 foot six print with 15 flowers in squares – rather impressive ( I know I am biased!).

Snowdrops – Spring begins!!

The first day of sunshine for a while, and the snowdrops are wagging their heads! Because of the neighbours fence the sun does not quite reach the snowdrops anymore, so, a gold reflector was used which gives a really warm feel, an evening light! How many more oportunities there will be I do not know, the tree under whose protection they grow is about to have a haircut so they may get stood upon or hit by flying logs – I hope not!! Last year the neighbours tree cutters dragged all the branches across them, ruining the surrounding natural background and the flowers….. Maybe next year will be OK!

Nature or Nurture! Or As seen or Studio?

Carrying on from yesterday….. In order to have backgrounds ready for this coming winter season (2011) I have started tajing photos of Christmas like situations, but I feel that they are arificial! So, during the festive season I took a few of the tree, which was decorated in an organic way, it is not planned or designed and bits are added here and there. The result I feel is more life like but it may not be as useful, the colour, intensity of light, evenness of light ans so on. Anyway, I am beginning to wonder whether I should have a tree in the studio (it would have to be artificial – all those needles …………… I must add that I used a red laser to highlight some of the baubles – on long exposures it has an interesting effect!
