Grasstrack !!

I have recently got into doing Grasstrack photos and here they are !!












I have from this point on got into post photo taking editing











Singapore

So Singapore was where I made my big upgrade and went from the Bridge to my Nikon D3300 DSLR !!







At this point I had still not done any post editing, that has only came with the last set of photos I have done back in the UK !

World Endurance Championship

Then it was off to Silverstone for the World Endurance Championship

Here I still had the Bridge camera so it was a case of making up for its pitfalls (mostly no shutter speed, Iso or Aperture settings)








Then we headed to the awesome Spa Francorchamps 










Australia


So to start off with I took the Bridge to Australia, I went to Sydney and had an amazing week out there, back that I didnt know much about composition, framing or even getting out of auto, I also didnt do any post adjustments to my photos, I have only just got out of auto and also doing post production editing









Welcome to my Photography Blog !!

Hi and welcome to my Blog !!

This is a new thing to me, well kinda ! I have had a blog for a few years and it kind of fell redundant with everything going on in life and things taking over, BUT I am back !! With my Photography

So lets have a little about me !

I'm Darren (Hi !!) I'm from Bristol, UK and I have recently got into photography properly

I have always had an eye for taking Pictures and Videos, I am a massive Motorsport Addict and would take many a video with my Go Pro of me on Mini Motos, Karts and even in the Car an sort of engine got me going.

I had 2 accidents on the Mini Motos where I fractured my shoulder blade both times taking 3 months to heal both times so I decided after the second one I couldn't keep doing them and I need to hang up my helmet from that but that didn't stop my urge of being a petrol head and still wanting to be around engines so I decided to fall back onto photos to keep me in touch with Motorsport.

So I went out to get a camera, I have always had a point and shoot camera that is still in my drawer but it was time to make a "step up" I purchased a Bridge Camera a Kodak PixPro .... Yeah it didn't last long until I needed to upgrade ! BUT it did give me that desire and urge for photo taking again and trying to get the good shots

That camera came with me to Australia, the World Endurance Championship and Silverstone and Spa Francorchamps and also to Singapore so it served me well !! Whilst over in Singapore knowing the Pound was strong against the Singapore Dollar I had a look at a few cameras over there and I found a good step up to a DSLR in the Nikon D3300 and this is what I am now using at the moment before I outgrow that and go to a "Pro" body although I have a lot to learn until I upgrade !!

This is going to be my journey and a snap shot into the photos I take and produce

Welcome to my Journey !!

Darren
