I am chuffed to bits to see my image of Costas on the back flap of a book cover: Purposeful Curiosity by Constantine Andriopoulos, PhD.
There’s so much more to explore than in a regular aquarium. We’ve had the privilege to really see what life is like in the coldest, darkest recesses of our seas, explore life around our shores, take a journey beneath the deep blue experiencing total tunnel vision, jump in their submarine and get up close and personal with all kinds of iconic fish.

After a change in venue, Wayne and Debbie finally got married on a beautiful summer day. I took about 2000 photographs, but only chosen 900 for the bride and groom. So many great moments. However, I am so excited to share a few photographs from this beautiful wedding at Stifford Hall Hotel in Thurrock. With everyone’s permission I even took some unique shot with my drone. Congratulations to the bride and groom and thank you for inviting me to take photographs of your special day!
This is how I built a 12V off-grid solar power system in my back garden and what I have learned through the process. Conception and Initiation All started with a 300W auto inverter I had laying around, 2 x 6V batteries (joined in series) from my daughter’s electric car (faulty) and a 250W garden light I wanted to be able to power using the power of the sun. In the end the goal has changed. I wanted to be able to power my photo-video setup off-grid, where power is not available. How expensive could it be? To find out continue […]
Google Translate and Google assistant are very useful tools. So far I used Google translate on a few occasions to help me reverse the menu of a few monitors from Chinese to English or to read the Menu in a few restaurants in Turkey. The best part is that you don’t even need to know what language the text is written in. Just use Detect language feature. Numerous apps, websites and devices have the ability to translate between different languages. However, Google has two apps that can translate on iOS/iPadOS and Android smartphones if you ever need to interpret a […]

Isabelle’s 6th birthday party was a total success. She dressed in a Wonder Woman costume. Everyone else dressed in their favourite costume too. My daughter has chosen Elsa. They danced and jumped up and down for hours. Thought-out the evening they met their favourite heroes: Mickey & Mini Mouse, Peppa Pig & George, Spider-Man & Baby Shark, and to top it all up Moana, Belle, Anna, Elsa and Rapunzel. The highlight of the evening was the foam party on their favourited tunes. To quote my daughter: “was the best party ever”! Tips for my fellow photographers I used a Canon […]

If you are interested in learning how to retouch and colorize in Adobe Photoshop 2022, find below a short tutorial explaining how to quickly do it. Without a doubt, my favorite new feature in Adobe Photoshop 2022 is one of the Neural Filter called Colorize. I used this filter with hundreds of black and white images and I am impressed. Bland and lifeless images suddenly come to life. With certain images the Colorize filter does a decent job from the start, but will look better if you spend a bit more time and fix any colour inaccuracies. Below are a […]

Lucy Gaster contacted me and asked if she could use some of my drone images of Romford and Southend for a charity project she was working on. She didn’t have a huge budget, but needless to say the film is now finished, so if you’d like to take a look you can watch it here – Michael Landy’s Welcome to Essex – Documentary:
Below are some of the images I took during a relaxed family photo session in Rise Park, Basildon near Ozgo Productions.
Last night we’ve had an unexpected visit in the chicken coop with devastating results. Seven of our chickens were killed, two are missing and one managed to escape. We don’t know for sure who did it, but we believe it was a ferret. A few chickens were decapitated, some I found dead. One was dragged and left in the garden. The ferret must have taken the chicken with grey feathers because was the fattest. I collected all of them and pilled them up in one place. To my surprise the chicken who escaped climbed on top to pay her respects, […]
This morning around 5 am I have experienced a power outage in my area and the entire valley went into complete darkness. In all fairness, it was snowing quite heavily throughout the night and sometimes power lines can be affected. I don’t know what actually has happened, but luckily the power came back in about two hours. I took my phone out, turn off the flash and snap a 30 seconds long exposure image with the camera against the window. After a bit of processing this is the final image. On an overcast day this is how it looks like.
Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about a Romanian tradition called the Goat Dance. Capra is the name of a traditional Romanian dance, performed around New Year. It’s executed by a young man with a goat mask and a sheep skin on his back. The ‘goat’ and his companions go from house to house, dancing at each door on New Year’s Eve. This custom is first mentioned in Descriptio Moldaviae by Dimitrie Cantemir. FREE Digital Image Hungry for more beautiful images?
