Light Art

I had a go at light drawing. Firstly, outside with my camera on a tripod, waving a torch in front of it while it was on a long exposure and secondly, inside pointing the camera at my bedroom light and then moving the camera in different ways while it was on a long exposure. I then played around with the colours on photoshop.








Superhero

Here are some photos i took for a photography competition where i got my sister to dress up as a superhero. She is a fashion student and she designed and made the costume with a little help from me. I think she makes a pretty good model. 



South France

Just got back from a relaxing couple of weeks in the South of France. We flew to Nice and stayed in a small village called Seillans for the first week and another village called La Garde-Freinet for the second. We also had lots of day trips visiting places like St Tropez, Cannes, Monaco and a beautiful island called Hyeres Porquerolles. We then spent our last couple of days in Paris visiting usual tourist spots like the Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coeur and the Louvre and also went to a really interesting exhibition by Hussein Chalayan at Les Arts Decoratifs. Here are some of my favourite photos i took during the holiday including lots of photos of fish taken at the Monaco Oceanographic Museum.

My sister taking a photo in Seillans. I like that the narrow streets make it look like the image is split in two.

La Garde-Freinet

I can't remember the name of this place but we were driving past and decided to stop to take a photo.
