Chichester Vs Hastings Under 15′s

Wayne Humphrey — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 15:06:10 +0000

Today I was supposed to go watch my nephew and friends son play rugby at Oaklands park in Chichester, it was the Chichester Under 15′s Vs the Hastings teams, To say I was late was a bit of an understatement I managed to catch the last 10 or so minutes of the game which by all accounts was a good match *disclaimer (I know nothing about rugby) but I do know that the Chichester boys beat Hastings by 53 -7.
Editing images from events like this is extremely time consuming so I have decided to post all of what I have taken as they came out of the camera….yes there are some poor quality images here but you can’t get them right every time and this is only my 2nd go at rugby photography and due to tiredness I forgot everything I learnt last week.

Just some snaps

Wayne Humphrey — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 23:35:39 +0000

Nothing special here today just some snaps while out for a walk wanted to capture sunset with a tree silhouetted but it just didn’t work so i shot the clouds on their own as the colours were nice ….. and the moon.

The Durdle Door Sunrise and Moonrise

Wayne Humphrey — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 17:09:46 +0000

Having had many return trips to the Durdle door down at lulworth in Dorset I have final captured the sort of shot I was after.
My first rip here was in march 2009 and I have been back about 20 times just really to pull of these 2 shots, I have a few other angles and not some not so great images ruined by 1 thing or another which i may post later.
The durdle door is a natural rock arch on the Jurassic coast or Dorset and next to the “man of war” which is a name for a rock formation just around the corner (literally).
The sunrise was spoiled slightly by excessive cloud, but i stuck around and had to just go for it.

Littlehampton West Beach Long Exposure & Sunset

Wayne Humphrey — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 14:49:35 +0000

Being stuck at home and bored is no fun, so despite feeling a bit ill i wrapped up warm and headed out to West Beach at Littlehampton. I had been here before to scope out the location for a possible sunrise shoot. This is probably the best time of year for sunsets on the south coast due to the position of the sun, that said yesterday the clouds were against me. I struggled to find the right composition for a decent sunset that was interesting and i think i will only be going back here for sunrise at somepoint in the future.

Here we have 2 long exposures 30 seconds + each and a ‘natural’ shot at normal shutter speed.

Autumn images

Wayne Humphrey — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 18:10:39 +0000

Recently I was ask for some photos, which I realsied I hadn’t got or taken yet, so with the afternoon off I decided to take a drive around my local area and see if I could capture autumn somehow.
Heres what I found…..

Elmer Beach Long Exposure

Wayne Humphrey — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 13:58:23 +0000

Taken down at Elmer beach yesterday had some time inbetween jobs so i thought i would bust out the camera.
Since getting a big stopper i havent really used it that much which is a crime in itself really.
The big stopper is a bit of black glass that allows you to keep the shutter open on the camera for extreme amounts of time even in daylight without over exposing the photo but allowing all things moving to blur.
Here are 2 examples of what you can do, both images are 2 mintue exposures ( normal exposure time for this type of shot would be 1/30th of a second, so that makes these shots 3600 times longer than they should be.

Lightning Storm hits mainland Greece from Zante

Wayne Humphrey — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 18:27:04 +0000

On the last night of my holiday In Zakynthos, I went to the tip of the harbour wall at Tsilivi, to photography the lightning storm that just passed over head. I was about to pack up and go as there hadn’t been any lightning for some time but luckily i managed to catch this beauty!

Thunder & lightning over kefalonia

Wayne Humphrey — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 20:27:01 +0000

Had a nice relaxing cruise around the island of Zakynthos (Zante) today some nice pictures but not ready yet on the very tail end of the cruise a heavy thunder storm passed over head and was still circulating among the Ionian islands after dark so I went down to the beach and had my first ever attempt at photographing lightning. Due to the distance away it was hidden behind clouds in the distance, however a 3/4 moon nicely lit up the foreground making for quite a nice picture ….not my best ever by any means but good enough …..

Zakynthos island shipwreck – Sunset

Wayne Humphrey — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 19:43:28 +0000

Today after turtle viewing and cave diving, I got back earlier than expected so decided to take the very long drive to the north of the island, on the east side between Volimes and Anafonitria, some 5 miles of the main road down some treacherous roads with steep cliffs. You end up at the viewing point for the shipwreck, nicely confronted in the car park by some locals selling some very good home-grown produce ( nougat, sesame seed and honey snacks honeyed strawberries among other stuff ). A short walk down to the cliff edge and you are confronted by a 750ft vertical drop with the Wreck only visible if you step onto the viewing deck that quite clearly states maximum 2 persons at any one time ( how reassuring ) so I had to grow a pair and confront my fear. After capturing an image that I was more than happy with the local guy came over and suggested a. Short walk over the cliff edge to non standard view-point with no safety rail, the walk was ok, the view was perfect but I had to get close to the edge this time without a shoulder high safety rail I did it and I’m glad I did.
