Photography, A Viable Career ?
Barely a month ever goes by without me getting a couple of emails or a call asking either if I have any assisting jobs or for advise on making photography a full time career.

Preachers Beach, Digital Photography Panoramic
As some will already be aware I shoot my fair share of Digital Panoramic Images and Im certainly not alone as I can name many landscape photographers who do also love this format.
The benefits for me are that..
- I can get a wide view of the scene but often not have to resort to using 24-28mm lenses.
- Using slightly longer lenses compresses the scene slightly which is a look I favour.
- Using Digital Photography and stitching techniques also has the benefit of extra image resolution.
A slight downside to the above is that sometimes panoramics can be a little tricky to get a strong composition from (or at least I think so).
If you are interested in shooting this format of digital photography check out my video tutorial

Hoarfrost On The Hills
The recent cold spell that has swept the U.K (and returning as I write this) has been very disruptive to everyone especially so close to Christmas.Despite this there is no doubt that it also produces some beautiful scenes on our landscape which provide us with some fantastic opportunities to capture some stunning images.
This image was captured near Barrington in South Somerset after a severe Hoarfrost which pretty much freezes everything in it’s wake.
The shot made up from 6 images which where blended together then stitched into a Panoramic.

Digging Into The Image Archives
I shoot a lot of personal images in fact if I never shot another image ever again I’d probably have enough content in my 22 year archive to keep me busy behind the computer for many years to come.
I’ll sometimes come back from a trip and only use a fraction of the many images captured and end up archiving the rest until months or sometimes years later.
I decided this week to dig into my archives containing coastal images shot during this year and pull a few strong ones out to retouch.
One of the reasons for doing this is the need to add and replace some images in my commercial portfolio and on my website www.plantphoto.com
