This is a private blog site to support the Photography AS/A2 classes I run in Bournemouth - I use it to share ideas, research, useful (I hope!) material, and point out good photography stuff on the web.
When I can I will add other relevant content - exam materials, handouts, etc. If you can think of something that should be here feel free to let me know. Some pages may end up being password protected….
If you think you should have access to the site, please get in touch.

More Low Light Photography – painting with light
Posted on October 4th, 2008 1 commentLandscape Photography’s Altered StateMany landscape painters (like most cosmetic surgeons and makers of silk flowers) do their best to make their artifice look natural. In this jungly photo-painting called “Koreshan 39″ (2008), Washington’s Frank Hallam Day flips that ancient striving. While his picture is a photograph (shot after dark in Florida with a 13-megapixel tripod-mounted camera), it’s a color painting, too. The exposure took 30 seconds. During that half-minute, the artist set a pair of flashlight beams, one yellowish, one bluish, playing on the fronds and vines, altering the spirit and the colors of the night.
