Light Trails

In photography, light trails are when you can see the pattern that is left from lights.

These can be done using your torch on your phone, a coloured filter over a light source, through a glass for added effects – anything. Although, you will need a camera, or camera equipment that allows you to alter the shutter speed.

A slower shutter speed allows the above effect. I usually have the shutter speed on 10 seconds. Doing so at night, gives a better effect than during the day. If you want lights, nighttime is the time.

Shutter speed of 10 seconds, F11 and iso 100

These will need to be altered, depending on the amount of natural light you have.

These were taken in my hallway, with a torch!

Find a dark space, set up your camera and have fun!

You can literally spend hours playing around with these effects!

Have fun!

Life of the Rich and Famous

London is one of my favourite cities in England.

There’s something so compelling about the capital of England: the heritage and history, architecture and buildings, beautiful parks and scenery and of course, the fantastic entertainment!

My sister and I went to London for a mini break a few years ago. On one of the days, we decided to visit the most iconic place in London.

No, no. Not Buckingham palace.

Madame Tussaud’s.

We waited hours and hours to get into the wax work museum. And was it worth it..?

YES!

Leeds, UK

Last year, I went to Leeds with my friend.

We like to meet up once a year, where both of us have to travel and Leeds is always the winning destination for us.

Mainly because we have a great time having afternoon teas and a good shopping trip, but also for the photographic memories of the beautiful city.

Graffiti Gallery

I park my car in a football stadium car park for when I visit town.

It may be a mile round hike to and from the car, but it’s reasonably priced, there’s always a space and hey, it burns a few calories!

To and from my destination, I walk down/up a rather salubrious back alley.

All full of graffiti, it’s hard not to stop and admire the artistry.

I can’t always make out the words, but the talent always catches my eye.

City Views

Newcastle is home to many beautiful bridges.

On the Quayside alone, it is home to 5 bridges, all serving a different purpose.

The millennium bridge was opened by the Queen of England in May 2002. This bridge is just pedestrianised and for cyclists. It has a cool skill to it, as it turns on its side to let the boats through!

The Tyne bridge is the big green which allows cars and buses over.

The high level bridge allows buses and taxis over but just one way.

The Swing bridge is a dual road bridge from Gateshead to Newcastle.

And the blue one is for the metro!

It’s all go at the Quayside!

Running

This isn’t a blog post about how to run, but rather a blog post about how to be an inspiration.

Above, the generous and fantastic gentleman on the left with the neon socks ran for 24 hours around a field in memory of a beautiful and wonderful lady whom unfortunately died of cancer in November 2019.

He ran for 24 hours.

This is proof that you can do anything you put your mind to.

You got a goal? Go live it and make it happen now.

This is proof that hard work, practice, patience, dedication, consistency, positive mental attitude and kindness make your goals and dreams come true.

Goals don’t happen overnight. You’ve got to push for them every day!

Sure, not everything works out, but you have to try.

Trying gets you places.

Why not try today?
