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!

My favourite and most used editing app when it comes to photos, is Adobe’s Lightroom
You have to sign up to adobe but that’s about it! Most of the features are free, obviously you can pay to access the whole package, but I find you have more than enough features without having to pay.
On this image, I enhanced the shadows and contrast to add depth and definition to the image.
What do you think?
For this one, I added more black tones to the podiums so that the green grass in the distance stood out.
Light at the end of the tunnel!

It’s important to keep going.
If you have a dream that you wish to peruse, keep going. That’s the only advice I can give you.
There have been so many times I have failed in my photography. I’ve bought products that wouldn’t sell, I’ve paid for adverts in local magazines that haven’t received much attention and my sales haven’t been amazing.
But do I give up? Do I stop?
Absolutely not.
You see, that’s how you succeed.
Could you imagine if you gave up and the next day was your winning day?
I know it’s hard, but keep that head up.
Don’t be a statue and freeze and stop altogether.
Keep going.

I love animals. I love flamingos the best, though.
As much as zoos aren’t the most PC and perfect environment for animals, I do enjoy the occasional visit.
I go to a zoo in Dudley, near Birmingham whenever I visit my friend down south. It’s a lovely little zoo with a wide variety of animals.
Initially, you have to get on a ski like chair lift to get in an extremely steep incline. It’s not always the highlight of the day, but for 3-5 minutes at dizzying heights, it’s manageable.
I met this cute little guy on a walkthrough. It was so exciting having the opportunity to be so up close and personal with these creatures!

Contrasting colours between the leaves.
Hole in the sky.
I love trees and nature. They really need to be nurtured in order for us to get the best out of this wonderful earth.

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.
