Shiny Bug

    Shiny Bug

    This is a photograph from a holiday in the French Alpes. There were thousands of these bugs around everywhere. I took this macro image, with a tiny bit of flash to get the nice shine on the bug.

    This is an image taken in Croatia, whilst I was on holiday. I took this, during the sunset, on a nearby hill. It was getting dark, so lighting was hard.

    Deep Purple

    Deep Purple

    This is a picture of droplets I took, when they hit water. The water that was at the bottom (not the drops, was dyed purple, but the other droplets were actually plain). I also used a flash though, covered with a purple gel to achieve this effect.

    Fountain Pen

    Fountain Pen

    A black and white image of my fountain pen. I added noise and high contrast, to create an old looking, moody effect. Hope you like it!

    Stylish Pen...

    I took this picture just, using a flash gun in slave mode and my onboard flash. I converted to sepia in photoshop and adjusted the contrast slightly. Hope you like it!

    Sea Water

    Sea Water

    Shot in Croatia. Picture of a boat corroding, due to the sea water. We came very close to it accidently and I could get a good shot. Hope you like it!

    This is a chain, which I found in Croatia lying in some old fishing nets. I think that it was used to tie a boat, but I am not really sure. The sun was setting, so the colours came out warm. Hope you like it!

    Drop in the Ocean

    Drop in the Ocean

    This is a drop of clear water (split in the air), being dropped into some Ribena juice. I used the pop up flash to get the reflection I wanted. Just a slight edit adjustment with contrast and a bit of sharpening.
