Fanhams Hall








These were a few images I took back in summer on a photography trip. The gardens in Fanhams Hall are so beautiful and give such a nice atmosphere, especially during the sunnier months.

Captivity


Although i haven't posted for a long while, i really wanted to spread awareness about the cruelty of whale and dolphin captivity. Even though I'm slightly late to this whole situation i still thought it was really important to share.

After watching the documentary 'Blackfish' (which i would highly recommend if you want to know more about the truth behind Sea World) i did further research and also ended up watching 'The cove' which is a documentary about dolphin slaughtering in Japan.

These creatures should be able to swim for miles in the ocean but instead they are cramped in concrete cages portraying clear signs of depression and aggression. 
Animals are not there for our own entertainment which has been clearly demonstrated through the death of many sea world trainers. Not to mention the amount of sever boredom these mammals encounter, they do not deserve to spend their lives in a bath tub. 
Although taking whales from the wild is banned, that gives no excuse for excessive use of artificial insemination just to ensure the company is making money. These ocean animals have the right to live the life that nature gave them and enjoy socialising with their family instead of being isolated with unfamiliar faces.

Obviously, i am not an expert when in comes to marine animals and how they behave but i know for a fact that they have a right to be free just like any other animal participating in circuses or zoos which are not put in place purely for protection.

Documentaries: 

Watch The Cove (this is available for free on youtube)

Blackfish Trailer (you can watch the whole thing on Netflix in the Uk so I'm sure other countries will have it as well, if not there are short clips on youtube)

A trip to london








I know i haven't posted in a while, school and exams have just gotten in the way a bit, but i thought i'd share a few pictures from my day in London. It was a really lovely day and i hope these photos capture that!

Long Exposure - Cars at Night Time

This was my first attempt. I went up onto a bridge, put my camera on a long a shutter speed and captured these lights from the cars below. 
I really like this one. While the camera was prossessing the photo, i gently move the camera on the tripod side to side which gave really swirly lights.
I'm not sure on this one, it reminds me too much of fireworks which is slightly irrelevant to what i actually wanted! However, i do think it is really interesting and i love the way the lights makes the sky really blue and vivid. To achieve this effect i moved the camera up and down instead of side to side.

An Autumn Day








This time of year is definitely my favorite season. I love the weather getting colder and the excitement of Christmas nearly approaching (which is only 8 weeks away, not that i've been counting or anything...).

One of the best things about autumn are the long walks in the woods, very stereotypical but the colour and the subtle light is just so pretty. I loved putting on my boots, wrapping up warm and taking these photos, i'm very excited to go out and take more as we get further into winter!
