Week 31 – iPooch

Pet Photography Nottingham

iPooch

Hey there people, welcome back sorry this is a little late going up but I have had a great weekend and also a bad weekend all in one, so to start with the good I have managed to find studio space of my very own and also I had a very painful but great ore arranged photo shoot today and now for the bad! well its 1:30 in the morning and I simply cannot sleep because my poorly leg is playing up so very much in this intense heat, I am in agony and just want ot to get better so as to not cause me so much discomfort!

Well I spent time in my new studio space on Saturday to get things sorted and drag some equipment down there and whilst hobbling around my good friend Mr Auden popped in for a cuppa and look what he brought with him, the beautiful Noah now known as iPooch. He is simply adorable and as he chilled out on the studio floor we could not help but dress him up with some bangin’ tunes. what an awesome image and a very relaxed pooch.

Well I am going to try and get some sleep but its doubtful hence I am doing this weekly task, I hope to post some images form the other shoot I did soon so why not follow me on Facebook and that way you will keep up to date on my photographic antics.

Again thanks to everyone who made my weekend a little more enjoyable where can I get some seriously good painkillers as there is nothing worse than being unable to sleep! have a great week one and all and thanks for revisiting my weekly blog I hope you love Noah (iPooch) as much as we do? take care one and all, Jurgen

Week 42 – CHILLIN IN THE PARK

CHILLIN IN THE PARK

Hi there, well week 42! and it’s nearly Christmas too! well what a fun packed weekend i have had which started with a visit to the highly recommended Bradgate Park in Leicestershire, I have to say it was well worth the visit as it’s a beautiful place without a doubt. There is some fantastic scenery, trees and Deer 100′s of Deer! Sunday was a visit to my friends in Carlton to take Photos of their daughters children which was bloody hard as at least with the Deer it stayed still. so I now have a few hundred photo’s to sift through and process (Joy Oh Joy).

So here is this week’s image of a rather beautiful Stag lazing the day away under the shelter of the tree foliage. just cropped a little to the left and dulled the background down a little, I hope you all like it?

Thank you everyone for all your continued comments and support have a great week, Jurgen.

Week 40 – SHEEPISH RECESSION

SHEEPISH RECESSION

Hello again, welcome back all. well today see’s the end of my week’s holiday so it’s all back to normal tomorrow. I haven’t been up to much in my time off it was simply time away from the day to day drudge of work and to use some of my holidays up really. I hope you all had a great weekend despite the miserable weather. I managed to get out on a walk with my good friend’s Andrew and Chris on the Saturday as we went clambering up rocky climbs in the pitch darkness of early morning in a hope to see a great sunrise but alas we where let down by the mist of the morning. This is one of the things that disappoint me about Landscape photography after a 4:30 start it can be quite disappointing but I still think I managed to get a couple of shots using the mist to my advantage. this weeks image is quite a simple one in its composition, I like the kind of zig zag lead through the image to the almost totally faded tree in the rear of the image, with just the one sheep being inquisitive enough to glance at us idiots taking photographs of him over a rather large stone wall, and using the mist to create this gentle recession within the image. I hope you like it and please do send me your feed-back as always. Have a great week everyone and do take care, Jurgen.

Week 37 – TWEET TWEET

TWEET TWEET

Hi there people I trust you are all well? not a great deal has happened this week for me so I am feeling a little drab and under enthused to say the least! but hey it’s the weekend! I popped out to Rufford Country Park again this afternoon with my brother and his girlfriend so that i can try and use my new 300mm lens. There wasn’t much going on to be fair and with me feeling a little tired and unenthusiastic I came up with this little tweetie bird for you all, not the greatest subject and I have no idea what kind of bird it is but it looks kinda at home on its heavily shaded branch. well I hope you like it and next weekend I am off to the Renault Touring cars championship (Or something like that?) so please all have a great week and see you all soon, Jurgen.

Week 33 – THE HORSE IN THE STRIPED PYJAMAS

THE HORSE IN THE STRIPED PYJAMAS

Hello everyone it was a bit of a strange week in that all seemed to go very well and then a seriously bad family news on Friday followed by a little bit of a strange and sad weekend, all seems to be OK at the moment  and before you know it I’m back at work. this weekend also See’s the sale of all my Sony camera gear as I head into a new venture now turning to Canon or Nikon, I haven’t quite made my mind up as yet but it’s looking a little more likely to be Canon? so with that in mind I am this week reverting to old stock photo’s and this offering comes straight from the horses ass and was taken from my visit to the West Midlands Safari Park. it’s an image I had seen done in a book called “Understanding Exposure” by Bryan Peterson and i liked it so I hope I have recreated just right with a little sharpening and tonal changes I truly believe this would look great on canvas. well onto the exciting week ahead as I still fumble around trying to decide what camera to purchase next, but at the same time I am very excited and hope to continue to bring you all great images in the coming months.my thoughts are with my Dad and his immediate family this weekend and I hope that he gets better soon best wishes to you all and thanks for returning, Jurgen.
