    The course w/Julia was different than I expected; however, it pushed me out of my comfort zone of photography. Julia is a great teacher and was able to get all students into B&W photography settings which really inspired me to stay in monochrome the rest of the day.

    I noticed some gulls hovering outside my hotel room on the 8th floor. When I went to my balcony, I saw the people in the room above me were feeding them. Of the 30 shots I took, this had the most pleasing composition.

    Saw some pigeons hanging out on the building. Seem like an interesting angle so I snapped the shot. I added some grain and desaturated the image to give it a film look. What I like most about the photo is the building look like steps.

    While on my first class (architecture photography) I had been instructed by Julia to pick a building and capture it from all angles.As I usually do, I got distracted, found myself shooting pictures of the mass of people on the south west corner of the building (the other sides were completely silent).I had to stretch my arms and push the camera as high as I could, so there was little I could see from the display. My intention was to capture the tunnel between people. That day I was trying to

    Title or Location: Crane Park, Whitton.
    Taken with Nikon D7500 with 300mm Nikkor lens. Two male Kingfishers possibly adult male and offspring sitting low by the River Crane. Light was low so had to use a high ISO. Because of this the image had to be denoised . It was then cropped and clarity and texture added in Lightroom. I have a nice triptych of them sitting in three different poses.

    I was on my way home when I saw the paragliders hovering ahead. So even though I thought I would try to get a few photos of them. The storm was getting closer & we all thought we would get wet, but just before it hit, it threw out a quick burst of colour. Sometimes it?s all about timing. iPhone 12 Pro Max & Snapseed.
