In my city, we have an arcade of shops called Central Arcade. In it, we have shoe shops, music shops, city enquiries and a Costa. It is such a beautiful place. So much architecture and details.
Look at the ceiling!
Such utter beauty!

Alongside filling the frame, I LOVE a good snail eye view.
This is where you place (carefully) your lens of the camera as close to the ground as possible.
It is absolutely great for street photography, which I discovered at the weekend.
Sometimes you need to experiment and see what happens in your images. You don’t necessarily need to have it all figured out, it’s all about having fun and learning from your images.
Mute the tones, keep the image and pathway central – experiment! It’s all about adaptation and learning.
Watch out for my next blog post “Grounded Part 2” for more street based snail eye photography!

I love taking photographs.
There is just something so magical about being amongst nature with a camera.
I feel confident. I feel empowered. But mostly, I feel so happy.
A week ago I had the privilege of being in nature with my camera.
Paradise.
It’s quite simple in gaining this rainbow effect in the image. It happens most when I use my phone to take pictures. It’s all about playing with the light and allowing the sunshine to bounce and curve off the lens.
For the above effect, I turned my phone upside down so that the lens was on the ground. This way, it skims the bark and adds a density to the image.
I love playing around with photography. You’re never too advanced to keep experimenting.

When taking photos, I LOVE it when objects are in the centre.
For me, it draws the eye to the centre piece of the image.
It’s so simple, yet highly effective.
When you look at a photo, your subconscious starts your eye to the top left of the image – as this is how you read.
So when taking photographs, I bear this in mind.

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.
Find a dark space, set up your camera and have fun!
You can literally spend hours playing around with these effects!
Have fun!
