Time Piece

Trying out a macro shot of my watch. With a touch of post processing in Silver Efex

Rallye Antibes

Pretty much the last rally of the year in the Alpes Maritimes. Didn't feel like I was hitting it off with the camera, so came away feeling a bit disappointed with the lack of good shots I got. Here are a few of the best from the weekend

Nomad

Found a great new sculpture on the ramparts of Antibes Harbour. Completed in 2010, it stands proud on the headland. Was an interesting subject to photograph, if a bit bizarre.




Dilbar

Took a walk around Antibes Harbour, and couldn't resist a couple of shots of the superyacht Dilbar, which was lit up spectacularly.



Ten Stop Antibes

Treated myself to a B&W 10 stop filter. First time I had chance to try it out today, so took a trip to Antibes, along with a stop at Darty to treat myself again, this time to a new Manfrotto tripod.
Its going to take a while getting used to the exposure times, as these were purely guess work, but still, I am quite happy with the results so far

Dolceaqua

A small village across the border in Italy. Very harsh light when I was there, so I have experimented with a different style of processing on these. Very OTT, but something along these lines seemed to drag the best out of some otherwise washed out pictures.
