Photography Day at Tutbury Castle

We heard about this event whilst at the Burton Photographic Society, so after returning from Liverpool, I prepped the camera and kit and prepared to visit the castle.

The weather was good, a bit bright but ok.

Below are a small selection of the photographs that I took that day:

I think I will have to look for a safer hobby, like parachute jumping !

Liverpool

Our intrepid photogs chose to visit Liverpool, birthplace of The Beatles, home of some beautiful architecture and of course the Liver birds !

Below are some of my photographs from that day:

Waddington 2011

After two busy weekends, I am now trying to work with the images and get some uploaded.

Slightly out of order, I will start with Waddington 2011.

Well, I  did not get to go last year, so this year I pulled out all the stops !  The weather was good, and yes a little tanned (ok burnt), but it was worth it !

Below is a very small selection of the photographs that I took at this year’s air show:

Website is now live

At last I have had a chance to rebuild my website, although it is still not complete, I have uploaded a small selection of my photographs.

The web address is www.peteremery.co.uk.

Can you give me your opinions on the site, bearing in mind it is still work in progress.

Thank you.

Views of Photography

Something different, for the Easter Weekend.

Saw this article on the BBC news section of their website:

Paul Graham: Photographs 1981-2006

What do you think ?

Return to Whitby

Another of our trips, this time to Whitby, hoping for a repeat of last year’s Goth Weekend, but unfortunately the British weather had other ideas !

This time there were only three of us, Jim, Steve and myself.

After the essential stop for nourishment (ok a full English Breakfast), we got to Whitby and parked near the Abbey.

Below are some of my photographs from the day:

Whilst at Whitby we did have a look around at other sites;

Although today was a cold one, the opportunity for portrait photography was still quite good, but not as good as last year.

The next  Goth Weekend is 4 – 6th November 2011.

When the worst happens

I saw the following article, having been registered with this website, and I thought it might be handy for others to look at, just in case !

It does work, I have used this method myself.  But it is important to note though that any type of file can be recovered from a memory card, USB pen drive, hard disk, etc.
