Keeping busy

The likes of Lombok (www.lombok.co.uk) and Carluccio's (www.carluccios.com) have kept me busy in the last few weeks with some great shoots.

I'm still working on prints from Iceland, the response from the friends and clients who have seen a sneak limited preview has been fantastic, I'm very grateful for all the support.

Next week I'm hoping to post a short behind the scene story from a food shoot, working with my dream team, more to follow.

Jokulsarlon

I'm still working on, and I think I will be for a few more days a first edit of images from Iceland.

A big thank you to Natalie Dinham and Richard Leeney for helping make a selection from all the images I shot, plus their total enthusiasm for the whole Iceland project

And for all you geeks, I've been using for the first time Nik Silver Efex software for converting the files to black and white, the software which is a plug in to Photoshop appears to be fantastic, the conversion of data is very 'smooth' and I have total control over every aspect of the image, early days but I'm very pleased with it, The software had been recommended to me by many photographers, but a special mention should go to Robert Postma, a Canadian landscape photographer I meet around Jokulsarlon, Iceland several days running. Hugely talented photography and exceptionally nice guy. (It's amazing how fast you can bond with someone on a beach at 4 in the morning with the wind chill drive the mercury down to near -20c)
