This is a Whooper Swan. Now I don't like this pictureits just a simple picture but its nice and get what the animal is across.

Now I like this photograph. Originally in colour, but looked much better in black and white as I wanted to try get the cloud in the middle to stand out and this was one of the ways I know. So I think it works well as these birds all got up, and then I just started snapping, this was one of the best I got.

 This is a nice action shot, not full in focus but its in enough to be a nice shot!

 Now this photograph. I have a confession, I Photoshopped out a swan, I feel ashamed. I don't like getting rid of things out of photographs. It does look much better and just has a nice shot feel about it.

Having put a few graded filters on this photograph, it took the glare off the water and brought a lot of the reeds and ducks colour out.

 This is a shot of Barnacle Geese its just a standard shot. Not happy with it but not upset, rather indifferent.

 black and white edit is too obvious but its nice make it looks slightly old.

Looks like the same shot, but its in colour but when the sun was out so the shadows look much nicer.

 Nothing to say really. Just a simple shot of a Whooper Swan.

 Again another normal shot I took. Struggling to find my self improving or finding how to take my pictures up to the next step.

Nice shot of a Wigeon on its own, its nice as the sun was shinning off its front so the colours were really nice and bright.

Again another Whooper, it is a new species for me so I got lots of shots of it and they were the best ones. But this shot shows the head and the feathers nicely, but also how much black is on the beak compare to the bewick's swan.

This week I won a university marketing competition.

Now I do like this photograph but I also don't. Its very central. It has been shot like all other of my photographs and I cannot seem to take my photography up to the next level. But I suppose I should be happy as it has done it well, the shot was nice and clear.

This was a shot taken along time ago and might already be on this blog, but I like the negative space and the curiosity of the deer!

This shot I think I have already explained in this blog but I shall do it again. Having used several graded filters I have med this photo what I wanted it to be. I darkened the sky and lightened the for ground, it looks like and HDR but it isn't. But it was the shot I wanted to get with the water smooth but everything else in a nice focus and to be lit.
