Adrenaline Fund Raising Events For The Anthony Nolan Trust

This has a been a busy and tiring weekend. I covered a Zip Slide at Baiting Dam near Halifax yesterday, and an abseil at Pilgrims Hospital in Boston today. The weather was great and, as usual, I forgot to put on any sun cream so I'm feeling very sun burned and wind swept at the moment.

I had a go at the zip slide yesterday which was huge fun and a real adrenaline rush. A big thanks to the guys at Keswick Adventure Centre for that.

Pete & Karen Engagement Portraits

On the way back from Sea Palling (see previous post) I stopped of in Cambridge for a photo shoot with Pete and Karen. We had the shoot at the Double Tree Hotel because that is where they are getting married. We all taught that it would be a good idea to have a good look around and decide on the best spots for photos before the day.

I'm really looking forward to covering this wedding as it's in such a fantastic venue.

A Trip to Sea Palling

We went to Sea Palling yesterday to visit Mandie's parents who were staying over there in their caravan. I love going to sea side, no matter what the weather is like. In fact, I nearly prefer it in the winter when there are less people about, if you're wrapped up well it's great. Sheri, our dog, loved it as well. She's not so keen on the water but loves tearing around in open spaces.

Cross Country Eventing at Turpins Lodge

I spent a couple of hours today taking photos of riders from Turpins Lodge having cross country lessons. I don't do much equine photography so it's nice to have a go at something different, and as Turpins lodge is only a mile from my house it's very handy.

Kart Racing At Rye House

I've spent the last two days photographing kart racing at Rye House in Hertfordshire. I'm a real petrol head, so I love this sort of work......usually. But on Saturday it bucketed (is that a real word) it down. At one point I had to stop taking pictures as my fingers were numb. I can't imagine it was much fun for the competitors either. Thankfully on Sunday the weather was better and I had a great day.

Green Pastures Nursing Home

I've been to a Nursing home today to take some photographs for their new website. What a lovely comfortable place to spend your last few years.

Short Trip To Ireland

I'm usually carrying loads of camera gear around all the time, I have too. So sometimes, like on holidays for example, I just like to leave it all behind and just use a simple little pocket camera. This is what I did on a recent trip home to Ireland, I just used Mandies little Olympus Stylus 790. No, I didn't have all the options that I'd have had with my Canon DSLR, but it was so handy just having a little camera that we could keep in our pocket rather than lugging around a big camera bag.
All of these pictures were taken near my home town of Navan.
