Fisheye and Takeaway Photoshoot

Fisheye and Takeaway Time to raid the hard drive for some content to show and tell. This time not so old but some client work I was really proud of that involved a fisheye lens and some takeaway food and a car interior. The Concept Was to illustrate Indian takeaway food to pitch to a client. So in London , where you can hire absolutely anything and everything for a price, we got ourselves a “Karma Kars” cab. Karma Kars are a fleet of vintage Indian Ambassador cars based on the Morris Oxford from the 1950’s bought to England and then the interiors are decked out in range of different colours and materials, they can be hired out for a wide variety of purposes; weddings, hen and stag parties, and for photographers and art directors to have some fun with. The Job We didn’t want to shoot in a car studio, they scare the hell out of me, so in my usual relaxed style I just hoped for the best. It was in the late autumn time in London and hopefully the weather would be overcast and the cloud cover would act as a giant softbox, and thankfully that is […]

Squashed Frog by Richard Clark

It’s Amazing What You Pick Up When You Are a Photographer. The Squashed Frog Yes it’s another out for a bike ride post with a twist, a squashed frog! It’s great cycling here just pull my bike out of the garage  open  the gate hop on and  start riding no traffic jams, no pollution just top quality danish Tarmac. It’s a great time to think and clear my head of all useless crap spinning around inside, well there cant’t be  much left you say after a few minutes? Well I do go out for a least 10 mins…… The dangers of cycling here are of course the killers on 4 wheels, cars, but the biggest dangers tend to be on 4 legs; deer, rabbits,dogs and most dangerous of all the mad farm cat with a death wish. So far I have avoided them all with no epic falls to report. Apart from clearing my head of useless stuff it’s a good time to think usually about photography and what the heck am I doing. I can usually solve a few problems whilst out or else come up with a few new personal projects to shoot and may be sell  online, but  I’m always […]

Junk Shop Find-Pocket Watch

Junk Shop Find-Pocket Watch A good rummage through a local junk shop threw up this lovely find, an antique pocket watch, not in working order but rear cover opened up to reveal   a beautiful mechanism. Technique My favourite D800 with a micro Nikkor 105 F2,8. I wanted a shallow focus so it was shot at F3,2 with a very simple one light set up, up high and to the left. I am always on the look out for backgrounds and I had found this one at the bakery. A well used baking tray, cleaned it up with some wire wool, photographs really well I think. Post processed in Photoshop with a liitle bit of cross process colour effect added. Conclusion One of those pictures that will never make me a lot of money in terms of stock sales but it was interesting to shoot such a beautiful object.

Retro Style Urinals

Retro Style Urinals I had seen these retro style urinals on previous visit to Roskilde, and of course I didn’t have a camera with me, my iPhone just couldn’t do it justice. So this location went into the memory banks for a location to re-visit. Luckily it wasn’t one of  those locations that is going to go away…..or one of those once in a lifetime miraculous “God’s Light” moments that you hate as a photographer when the light shines in the most amazing way on the  most perfect place and you have committed the cardinal sin, by calling yourself a professional photographer, of not carrying a camera with you at all times. At least now you can now carry a camerphone I suppose and boy  they getting better and better. As I came out of the toilet I had an unusually wide smile on my face, not my usual look when coming out of a gent’s public toilet. I had to explain to my wife the reason for my good mood, she hasn’t seen the interiors of many gent’s toilets but she would have to wait for the reshoot to see it properly The Reshoot So I returned on my […]
