Christmas shopping in Colchester, Essex.

I recently met up with the Wivenhoe Photography group and we decided to go into town to try and capture people out shopping. We met up and all separated in different directions, when you point a camera straight at someone you tend to get a mix of reactions, some people look unhappy about it and avoid you, others move in closer and positively pose…please click on the link to see my other shots.http://www.pbase.com/wakelin/colchester_town Thanks for looking.

Under the Orwell Bridge without a Tripod as night falls…

 

Again the traffic lights that skim thy swift
Unfractioned idiom, immaculate sigh of stars,
Beading thy path--condense eternity:
And we have seen night lifted in thine arms.
( An excerpt from the poem To Brooklyn Bridge By Hart Crane )

Kelly & Steven

A couple of weeks ago Paul Cudmore ( Photographer, Essex ) asked me if I would assist him at another wedding, the images were taken by me but the copyright belongs to PC. Kelly and Steven were married and had their reception at Leez priory in Essex. Steven made a cool entrance with his best man arriving in a Helicopter. It was a beautiful spring day full of smiles, laughter and of course lots of sweets. I will post some more pics up over the next few days.

Brighton

Last week I spent a few day’s in Sussex, click on the image below to see my other shots of Brighton. It started off very grey and misty but the weather improved so the next day with walking boots on, a map in hand and a large pouch of tobacco I took a long walk along the South Down way. What a wonderful place, the sun shone and everyone I passed on the hillside seemed to have a smile….more pics will be posted up over the next few day’s.
