B099 – the “Adult” part of the park…

joshfspear2 Comments

After spending the whole of sunday on the sofa or travelling back from sevenoaks, I decided to go to victoria park and take some snaps for the sunset. I only wanted to go for an half an hour max, 2 and half hours later I walk through my door and still need to get ready for work. but I have got some absolute bangers, pretty happy with how they’ve turned out but still having focusing problems with my 5D, which is getting really annoying, time to buy a new camera I think.

apart from that nothing beats sunday no other day of the week is better. fact. mix victoria park in the sun shine with a sunday and you have the perfect place to be in London, that park has everything from pedalo’s, crazy golf and a 13ft vert bowl at the skatepark!

so heres my snaps, let me know what you think.

B095 – Street Photography for the next 5 days

joshfspearLeave a comment

for the next 5 days Im going to concentrate on taking photos of people around London, its something that I’ve wanted todo for a long time and something I want to get better at.  Street photography is  big in London and probably to most popular type of photography around here, so I think its time I give it a proper try. At the moment, Im a big fan of black and white street photos I think they just add something else to the photo, so for now I’m probably going to concentrate on that, but well see where it ends up.

Heres some photos I took yesterday on my lunch break and after work having pizza in the park. have a look at ’em and tell me what you think.

B091 – she stole my camera!

waking up to a hyper 3 year old has got to be one the best things, when it happens only now again. But thats what happened today, I woke you at my parents house and was met by a energized three year old that goes by the name of FLO. after some standard hungover activites like throwing up and feeling sorry for myself. I was king of ready to start playing, but as soon as we pulled out the camera she was happy to take some snaps and bang my lens of the floor. After showing her how to take a photo and then letting her lose, she soon worked it out and we were taking pictures of my little ponies in no time.

Thank you canon for building a Flo proof camera!

Heres some of her snaps!

Spent yesterday in Norfolk, doing nothing, apart from going to some country park thing, and then the pub. that was basically it, now im on the train back to london, feeling sleepy and needing some more food. I LOVE SUNDAY. Oh and i broke my camera so sorry if the pictures are a little out of focus, there literally nothing i can do about it till I get it fixed.

B070 – I LOVE MANCHESTER

joshfspearLeave a comment

So before my train yesterday I wanted to pop to st annes Square to see the memorial for those people killed at the concert a few weeks back, everyone was telling me how amazing it was, when I got there they had taken to the memorial down, the only thing left was a few flowers on the statue and some candle wax on the floor. it was properly raining, the type of rain that somehow only manchester can have.  But i still thought it was only right to leave some flowers and show some respect.

MUCH LOVE MANCHESTER!

I have to admit, I was wrong really wrong, the other day i thought manchester was sunny and in full summer mood. Today it has rained non stop, but not like normal rain, its literally like someone has turned the shower on a just left a cold shower running.

B063 – who said it always rains in manchester –

joshfspearLeave a comment

two day has been a day of two halfs, a missed train from reading to Manchester, an angry taxi driver who tried to hold me as a hostage of a mistake that his comms office and a lost jumper (it was my new favourite), all added to me only having one option grabbing a pint before the next train to Manchester and then sleeping all the way, so now im sat in a pretty swanky hotel room in manchester wide awake!

but over all im pretty happy with the pictures i managed to get, by the way, I cant take any photos of my location or anything this week, so time to get creative. Ive brought a big pack of balloons just in case I run out of ideas and need to make some water bombs or something.

at the moment its 7:30 in the morning on saturday and im on a train, doing this post. 2 coffees down and about to dig into my breakfast. its weird doing something like this, because obviously there is zero money involved, apart from me getting excited about camera gear and spunking all my money. but this is slowly becoming just a normal part of my day, take some pictures of things a like then post them, it makes my days feel like 10 times more productive. not sure if the photos or writing is improving but im not too fussed, its just something fun todo each day other than just working and drinking. this is my Saturday morning reflection session over.
