black & white photography at Dungeness
It’s been a while since I went out just for the fun of it to take some landscapes photos so off I went to the coast at Dungeness. This is quiet a strange place in many ways, it’s like going back in time as it feels like this place hasn’t changed for years. If you fancy a vistit to somewhere quite different I highly recommend it especailly if you like taking photos. I will take another trip there some point as I didn’t have quite enough time as I also wanted to photograph the acoustic mirrors bu these a bit of treck to get to as far as I can tell. If you google that term you’ll see what these objects are. I spent a couple of hours or so wandering the area seeking out photo opportunities and here’s some of my favorites.
Our baby Thomas at 8 days old
Some portraits of our new liitle baby BOY Thomas who was a week and 1 day old this morning at 2.10am. Thomas was a healthy 8lb6oz at birth and mother and baby are doing well although mum in particular is lacking some sleep. Photographing new born babies means you get to capture some priceless moments and we will treasure these many years and so too hopefully will Thomas in time. He’s such a cute little boy and some say he looks like me but I think he’s far cuter;)
Ending the decade
What a beautiful month it turned out to be with all that white stuff! It gave me a chance to get out and capture some photos for my Christmas cards for next year.
My wife is from Prague and so this year it was her mum’s turn to have us there this year. We tend to take it in turns but I’m not that keen on carp for Xmas dinner;) I just bought myself a small compact for taking on hols so I have a pocket camera handy at all times therefore the Pragus shots and the one of my little girl Tiffany were taken on the Panasonic Lumix with it’s Leica f2 lens; I am really pleased with this little ‘gem’.
Unfortunatley I had to leave my wife and daughter on the 28th in Prague and come back to the UK on my own as I had a wedding on the 31st. The couple had managed to arrange to have some shots taken in the V&A which was great.
So happy New Year and hope you enjoy a few shots from the past couple of weeks.
