Captured Moments Photography

This image is of a favourite pastime - writing in the sand with a stick. Again I have simplified the image right down, leaving just the figure and the writing to leave a stark but fascinating image.

For this image, I have taken one of the Piers on Blackpool front and then filled in its framework with the image of a sunset sky over the beach, I think the results are quite interesting and creative yet in a simple way.

For anyone who’s been to Blackpool, The Big Wheel is prominent on the front, sat in the middle of Central Pier. Again I have manipulated the image, choosing to close in tight on the wheel and pier and then converting the image to black and white. It leaves a striking silhouette.

This week I am going to branch out and post some photography artwork around the town I was born in and grew up around, Blackpool. Beginning of course with the famous old tower. I have manipulated each image in a way that white space created a clean but interesting visual.

I thought id put this one in as an unusual shot! I was looking at my cat ‘Poppy’ through the window when suddenly she let out a monster yawn which i caught on camera! You can even see the camera I used, my trusty old Fuji Finepix!

What spring is complete without the appearance of Bluebells blossoming out in our countrysides woodlands!? I like the burst of Blue in this image, that distinctive Bluebell blue!

Just another 3 days on…and the little birds are nearly ready for ‘flying the nest!’ The birds are just about fully feathered, and as you can see, its starting to get a little crowded! Its been interesting seeing how quickly these birds have grown, clearly visible over the 3 photos shown here.

This picture was taken just 2 days after the last image, an incredible growth rate! Their feathers are well on there way and they are looking more like their busy parents every day! The joys of Spring!

Spring wouldnt be complete without little chicks hatching! I love the burst of colour that jumps out at you in this image from the bright orange colour of the screaming chicks. There eyes are still un-open and they have already started the fight for life in their un-ending bid for food! I will be keeping an eye on these little fellas…
