Hi Everyone

Another busy and varied week of photography, with an interesting newspaper photography assignment for the Midlothian Advertiser at the weekend, with some great Halloween costumes at the Midlothian Community Hospital, but the highlight of my week involved some classic car photography in Perthshire, photographing a 1953 jaguar at various locations in Perthshire including Scone Palace and the town centre in Perth.  It was a joy to photograph such a thing of beauty.  The reason for the photoshoot was to promote a two day classic car event in April next year, photo attached to this blog.  I have a corporate conference event photography assignment in Edinburgh this week, followed by a PR photoshoot in Glasgow later on in the week and of course I will continue with my infrared photography in Scotland project.  I also received my camera replacement from my insurers Aaduki Multi Media Insurance.  A big thank you for processing the insurance claim both quickly and efficiently, after both me and the camera were hit by a big wave in Dunbar.

Anyway, until next time

Kind Regards

Hi All

The end of a very busy and wet week for me.  With the stormy weather, I was out taking landscape photographs at the East Beach in Dunbar East Lothian and was hit by a freak wave that destroyed my camera and almost me.  One second it was totally calm then the next the wave came out of nowhere.  Anyway, these things happen, the attached photo was taken about 5 minute before the incident with a zoom lens, far enough back to be safe and not that close to the waves. 

I had a conference photography event in Edinburgh last week and I am starting to take bookings for corporate event photography around Scotland for the remainder of the year and the beginning of next year.  After getting wet during the week, I ended the week at a very enjoyable photoshoot at a bungee jumping event at the Riverside Museum, Glasgow, a good day was had, thanks again to the Big Bang Promotions crew.  However, once again I got very wet.  So I am looking forward to some dry photography commissions soon.  Of to Scone Place on Tuesday to photograph a Jaguar for a classic car event later next year.  Also some newspaper photography for the Midlothian Advertiser at the weekend.  Hope to get some more infrared photography, as part of my Infrared Photography in Scotland project before the light goes.

Until next time.

Kind Regards

Colin

Hi Everyone

A busy week finishing with a newspaper photography shift for the Midlothian Advertiser at the weekend, after a week of conference photography in Edinburgh and some landscape and infrared photography in Leith, Edinburgh.  This week the image I am selecting for my blog is a bit different.  Mostly on blogs and social media photographers choose their most striking photos for obvious reasons, to demonstrate their skills, in the hope that they will get more business.  Sometimes however, the photo is the least important thing and this week I have chosen a standard outdoor posed shot for my blog image.  However, it is the history behind the image that is important in this case.  This image was taken for the Midlothian Advertiser, after a street in Gorebridge - David Herkes Way, was named after David Herkes, a Gorebridge man who's quick thinking lead to the capture of Robert Black. It was an honour to photograph the family and friends, in memory of someone who's actions will never be forgotten.

Anyway, of we go into the new week, some corporate event photography in Edinburgh midweek, followed by bunjee jumping photography, Glasgow at the weekend.

Until next time

Kind Regards

Colin
