Westonbirt Arboretum at peak time

28/10/2012: - Peak time for the Autumn colours also means traffic jams and thousands of other people (most of whom seemed to be photographers!); it was still great to see the stunning Acers though

The back garden on a dewy morning
21/10/2012: - These magnificent yellow Rudbeckias have been in flower for months, what great performers they are. I'm not a great fan of yellow, but I love the way they flower late, when most of the garden is dying back

Teignmouth

Promising cloud and light so I drove to Teignmouth, a location I didn't have any good pictures of. The light didn't get any good, so I had to wait for night and the lights to come on; I'm glad I did, everything looked so much better after dark!

 

 

Been meaning to photograph Torquay harbour at dusk for years, so I'm glad I finally got around to it last night!

My latest 5 minute video, shot in infrared; please watch on youtube itself, not facebook, view fullscreen at 1080p quality and turn up the ambient music!

It's a long drive, but just one good picture makes it all worthwhile

After finishing my customers print orders I had a few hours spare, the weather was a little too cloudy but what the hell, Wiltshire it is. I just love the big open spaces, chalk fields and monuments around Avebury. I got there and it had clouded over, but I waited around for an hour or so to see sun coming towards a gap in the clouds, so I drove as fast as I could to the White Horse. I only got one shot, then it clouded over for the rest of the day, so I headed home. Good shot though! More at http://www.tonyhowell.co.uk/photographsofwiltshire.htm

 

 

 

 

Castle Combe in infrared

 Older buildings covered with foliage make great infrared subjects, and The Manor House Hotel is one of the best I've seen; must
go back to catch the leaves in full Autumn colours too
