A break away at Bonehayne, Colyton, Devon

Bonehayne Farm, Colyton, Devon Malcolm and I took a few days off and went to Bonehayne Farm in Devon and took Malcolm's parents with us to give them a change of scenery (although not sure if they really need a change from their Milford on Sea appartment overlooking the Isle of Wight?). It was our first visit to Bonehayne Farm and we weren't disappointed. We had a very warm welcome from the owners and a bottle of wine to start us off on our break! Well as they had been kind enough to leave it for us, of course, we felt obliged to drink it, it would have been rude not to! The weather was lovely and the scenery stunning giving us loads of opportunities to take photographs. Wow! How I would love to do a model photoshoot along the river path there. Mind you we weren't short of models as you can see from the photos! We will soon be featuring Bonehayne Farm with some of its stunning scenery on our website so please visit us @ http://www.essentialimages.co.uk/ for further images

Now I know last week I said I'd give you some more examples of using shutter priority ...... but as school and Easter holidays loom I thought you just may have some time to play a little :) Tips on how to get used to manual camera settings I'm going to give you a tip that may help make it easier for you to understand the different settings you can use to get a little more creative. Making it easy to come off auto mode Because Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO may traumatise some people there is a really easy way of getting your head round it.

Look at the screen on the back of my camera in the images below ...... don't look at the images they are irrelevant. Just look at the settings at the bottom of the screen. For this exercise I have set the camera on a tripod and sat it in front of the window in my office. I've s

We're Talking Composition in Our Pictures

We're still not moving on to shutter speed because ...... It doesn't matter how good you are at using your camera or phone. Or whether you are on manual or auto..... Composition is key How you compose your image is what draws the eye. It's what makes people linger and take a second look. Whilst there is an auto mode for our camera, there is no auto for composition. Rules of composition in photography Firstly let me say there are no hard and fast rules ..... but guidelines to help enhance. Rule of thirds adds balance Imagine your image is divided into 9 sections by 2 vertical and 2 horizontal lines. The rule of thirds says that you should position the most important elements in your picture along those lines, or the points where they intersect. Below: this little Robin was taken a few years ago now. He popped into view whilst I was shooting a wedding. Obviously I was unable to take my time in capturing the image correctly. I cropped it a
