Week 39 – TRAM TO CRICH
TRAM TO CRICH
Hi there everyone, wow what a busy weekend I have had, and today I went on an 8 mile walk (I am bloody cream knackered) with my brother and his girlfriend. We went round the Crich area and we nearly went into the Tram museum but then we saw the price for entry!! so we continued on our way rather sharpishly, after a couple of miles we settled down for a bite to eat after passing a large quarry and about 50 yards from where we sat there where some old tram tracks, so I couldn’t resist and as I was happily snapping away look what came along out of nowhere! apparently this tram is 80 years old! so the driver was telling me as he came over to make sure I wasn’t trying to commit suicide. so with that in mind I have simply cropped the image slightly and applied a filter tat I found call “Fair Well To Old Arms” and then introduced a little grain and a slight graduated filter at the bottom to bring you back into the image. I hope you like it and have a great week one and all as I am on holiday this week Yaah! cya soon, Jurgen.

Week 38 – YE ODE RUSTY TONKA
YE ODE RUSTY TONKA
Hello and welcome back, well I hope you all had a good weekend as I know I did with it being slightly extended having booked Friday off too, well I have just returned from a Renault open day at Silverstone and I am glad that I managed to prepare my weekly blog yesterday as I am only just about defrosted after sitting up high in the stands for 6 hours, but think it was all worth it looking at some of the images I managed to get? so watch this space! in the coming weeks. Anyway onto this weeks image which I personally absolutely LOVE! one of my best by far (In my opinion) I grabbed this shot whilst walking round an old dumping ground near to Radcliffe on Sour Power station on Tuesday last week just before going to my photography club, it has been layered and tweaked in a few places so far as colour, texture and some lighting, it looks AWESOME in black and white too, but I wanted to show you the colour version first to show it’s agedness and decaying colours which cover a massive tonal range. I am so happy with this image and also plan to enter it into an upcoming print competition. I hope you like it and please send me your feed-back as always, take care guys and gals, Jurgen.
Week 31 – TOP GUN
TOP GUN
Well what a week I have had after last weekend I finished this week’s holiday with my 40th birthday party BBQ on Saturday night so thanks to everyone for coming and a big thanks to my Brother & Sister for organising it, so with all this I’m afraid there was no time for photography this weekend so this week’s image comes from last Sundays visit to the Farnborough Air Show now this picture has been cropped quite a lot so as to better fill the frame and with a touch of sharpening and colour adjustment we are left with this awesome! Image I hope you like it and please do leave your feed-back as usual I could do with a few ideas’ for photographic subject matter so if you can think of anything that you would like to see then please let me know ok. Many thanks everyone have a great week, Jurgen
