Out of the studio...

Brrr ok so the winter is still here but at least now the end of January is here it seems to be lighter out and we get the odd day of winter sun. This means I can leave the studio on my 'break' days and grab my Olympus Pen7 and go shoot some locations. 
​Wrap up warm and enjoy a change of scenery, plus make sure a coffee shop or cafe is close by! (coffee addict girlie) 

Today myself and my partner Andy ventured off to Uphill in Weston Super Mare, they have a drive on beach there but we always love to go to the marina just up the road from the beach. They have an amazing cafe there called Uphill Wraf cafe I always take my father there for lunch if I'm in the area.

You can park in the marina and walk around. There are many abandoned boats there as well as people working on the boats, it's always a nice little walk around before a coffee. I go here a lot and recommend it.

For Christmas I bought my partner Andy one of the new Lens Balls that you have seen out. He loves the Lensbabys I have so I bought him one of those as well as he likes the old Holga style film camera and pin hole and anything retro and manual. They are great for creative style of photography.
​Seeing the hype on these lens balls I thought id have a go at them to see what I can create... Here is my first attempt at a Lensball pic...
