Church Photography

 Recently I have been indulging in a little of my primary photographic passion, that of local architecture.  Several examples from the last two weeks are above, St Georges in Morpeth and below Mitford.  I feel blessed to live in such a beautiful county at times, and the spring weather merely enhances its glory.

More from the Northumbrian Coastline

My love of this county is probably now apparent.  I thought I would group a few of the images together in one post rather than spread them out.

Many images have also been taken on 35mm film and thus are yet to be processed.  I look forward to the results when I get round to processing!

Blyth Harbour

Lovely to go for a walk along the coastline as spring finally sets in.  Several images from my wanderings around Blyth harbour with a friend.

The tide is high...

Several shots from saturdays excursion to the Northumbrian coast.  Amble harbour was rather dramatic as a result of high tides.

After taking this shot, I ended up being caught out by the waves and rather wet.  The results however were worth it.

The image above was a very luckily timed shot of my new friend in the harbour!   Beautiful creature and seemingly very curious.  

The eclipse.. it had to be photographed... didn't it?

Like thousands of others I was anxiously awaiting the darkening sky this morning, camera in hand.  A few breaks in the clouds allowed for some decent shots of this rare event..

I am rather proud that my images were featured in local news articles, thanks to the Morpeth Herald.

A few from this weeks shoot.  Yet to edit my potential final image, but rather liked these few shots.

Although very difficult to photograph, couldn't resist but attempt to get a shot of the enumeration of these starlings near to the village that night.  Rather a hypnotic sight and quite wonderful..
