It's the holiday season again, when all our local
towns light up their shopping high streets and encourage us to spend, spend
spend! Don't forget to take a look at
Where to Photograph Christmas Lights
to find something near you, but it's also a time for family and friends. Although it may appear that everything stops for Christmas
there is still lots going on and an abundant array of photo opportunities to be
had, including portraits or candid shots of those we are visiting or who are visiting
us, Christmas lights in our homes or nearby streets and the crazy antics taking place
in local communities on Christmas Day, or just just step outside your front door
and capture the wildlife, nature and weather
around us. So whether you are celebrating in the UK, in warmer climates away
from home with
family or friends, or just about anywhere in the world there are many photo opportunities
just waiting to be taken. This time of year I also start to think about what next years photo project might be. This year I decided for my project, not use my Nikon camera but to instead take photos only using my iPhone and iPad Mini. All the advertising blurb concentrates on the photo aspect of these devices both taking and sharing, and all the promotional images you see are bright sunny outdoor affairs, but the UK isn't that sunny all year round, so how would it cope, and as expected the results were mixed, but better than I first thought. I'll share more with you next year. We haven't had a chance to get out and about this month, but things have still been just as busy trying to sort out the new website so haven't had a chance to write anything up. But we are hoping to have loads more new content for you to explore in the New Year.
