When Hayfever Strikes...!

I have wanted to get out and have a go at some poppies for a couple of weeks and finally go the time on Sunday evening. Unfortunatley my time out and about was cut very short due to horrific hayfever...

Not my best ever effort but not bad considering I sneezed that much I could hardly keep my eyes open!

3 image HDR (+2/-2) blended in Photomatix, processed in CS3.

Thanks for looking!

Sneezy Photo!

Nan Isn't Going To Thank You For That...!


I wanted to do a little bit for me at some point this week. You can spend so long shooting for other people, you can begin to loose your vision. I think it's so important to keep shooting personal work.
I thought it would be nice to get some images of my lovely Nan. I can honestly say it was one of the most difficult sessions I've had! She wouldn't smile, wouldn't put her hearing aid in so she couldn't hear what I was saying to her, she feel asleep while I was shooting and repeatedly told me the cup of tea, which I had already finished, was going to go cold!


These aren't the type of images I had envisioned but as they are just for me, I just let my creative juices flow. When Mel saw them she said "Nan isn't going to thank you for those..."!

Thanks for looking as always

Spotty!

I Thought Photography Was About Making Pictures...



I seem to spend 90% of my time sitting, starring into my computer screen and only 10% of my time actually out there doing what I enjoy - taking photographs!


Album pages take the longest to create without doubt. I guess I could use a template or something like Graphi but every wedding I do always feels total different from the last when comes to putting it all together. 


Oh, I've set up a facebook page - www.facebook.com/benpeasleyphotography  I'd love it if you found the time to drop by and hit the old "LIKE" button!

Stuart & Liz Pickerill, a beautiful day...


Here's a sneaky peek at the images from the wonderful wedding I shot at the weekend. It was a great day and all the guests really enjoyed themselves. They also made Dan and myself very welcome!


A family moment on the hay bails...



And talking a walk in the buttercup field!
