Kevin posted an update 8 months ago
The deer at Tatton and Dunham Massey parks have been rutting since early October and Tatton has given me the best opportunities to capture the stags’ bellowing and sparring. The Red Deer stags put on a great show of bellowing, rounding up groups of hinds, and generally showing-off their machismo. Their sparring however has been occasional…

For those who were unable to attend our last meeting, I played a video from Thomasz Trzebiatowski following my conversations with him about combining our Photowalks and his brand of Slow Photography. I have embedded it in my blog, so please take a look – it makes fascinating viewing!

In today’s fast-moving world, slow photography invites us to pause. It’s not about chasing the perfect shot—it’s just about being present. Observing rather than glancing.

Hi everyone, Heads up – IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

Finally got to visit this place which has been on my radar for years. Trees still mostly a week or two off being peak autumn colour but wow I spent 2.5hrs taking shot after shot and had one of my best photography days ever (until i lost my CPL 😒). Some marmite shots included, used shutter speeds of 1/4sec and 20 seconds for the silky ones.

Following on from my blog on slow photography, I subscribe to Tomasz Trzebiatowski on youtube and his latest walk is just as good. See what you think! https://youtu.be/SrbTawZDPfw?si=kznB9LF_8hRSIjP3
I love how he is taking you with him to analyse his surroundings. It’s like a game – trying to guess what he is focussing on, and what his…

Greetings Photography People. So, the voting for our latest BPG Photo Wall Images is concluded. Over the next few days, the twelve entries with the most votes will be confirmed. Then I’ll print them onto ‘Oyster Finish’ A3 paper and they’ll be framed and put up on our BPG Photo Wall in the Turners. All being well the new display will be up…

Some images taken today in Castlefield, Manchester on a walk with Kevin – we had fabulous sunshine. I have toned these using both Lightroom & Photoshop. The tritone effect is still too strong – I want to make it more subtle. The effect I am after is just a very slightly warmed-up black & white.

Simon posted an update a year ago
Finally, I thought it was about time that we had a place for our old Turners’ Photowall prize winners.
Still work in progress, but you will find our latest winners in the ‘Previous Winners Gallery’ section. There are still some older ones to populate, but I will have to reconstruct the old contests to be able to show the all important scores… -

I wanted to create a tritone image similar to some wonderfully toned B&W printed images in a book I own called ‘Ansel Adams at 100’. I wasn’t sure how to create the effect on my own image using Photoshop – so I asked ChatGPT how to go about doing this – (to be clear I wasn’t asking Ai to create it for me – I just wanted the…

Some recent photographs taken on my Africa trip. The first group are from the Cubango river, which partially in its course forms the boundary between Namibia and Angol. It crosses Namibia to form the Okavango Delta.
