Shooting with low-light at events #photography
I did a few photo-shoots at the weekend and needed to cope with low-light conditions. The first event was part of the Birmingham and Sandwell Jazz Festival and was a performance by Chickenbone John playing an amazing guitar made from a cigar box.
Christmas events in the community #Wednesbury
I had a busy day yesterday with more Christmas events. I always write my blog post of course and did my photography post before lunch and then off to the town hall to photograph the Christmas lunch for the older and wiser members of the Wednesbury community.
Freezing and sneezing #Wednesbury
Yes, it is freezing in Wednesbury today. I missed my evening of spoken word and music in Wednesbury library last night. I spent 30 minutes de-icing my car and it was still iced up and misted up then. I gave up, I was freezing. I might clear the ice later and warm it up. My computer says it’s 36F now but it has been wrong before. It was wrong last night, it was way below freezing.
Wednesbury events
I intend to begin a new series of posts reporting on local events that I photograph. We need to publicise local events more. people often miss an event and complain they didn’t know about it. I want to fix that! The first event I went to this week was the open mic event at Wednesbury Library.
Community Event #life
I’m not too sure what our purpose is in life, but it probably to just survive and live it the best we can. I’ve changed my life in the past few years and have been doing what I really enjoy doing and that’s writing. I also took up photography and think I’m beginning to get quite good at it. (more…)
