Spanish Travels

Hello everyone,  i'm back in England, and have just arrived in Cornwall to start my final year in Falmouth.. well after all the partying with freshers before hand. But as you know I have I travelled around Spain for a couple of weeks and flew back a couple days ago. Last year, I travelled Italy and made the stupid but sensible mistake of not bringing my camera so this year with Spain I made sure I had it with me!

So the travelling started of in Madrid where we flew in and stayed in the Centre, I then went to travel the east coast, from the south to north; so Calpe, Valencia, Barcelona and then finally took a ferry across to the Balearic Island of Majorca.

Although this was leisurely planned, I still had time to take a few shots. I will upload a short selection of photos of each place in chronological order (starting with Madrid and ending with Majorca) over a short period of days.

I hope you enjoy!
Here are some shots in Madrid:

The Iceland Experience

Just before I go to travel Spain for a couple of weeks, I thought I would do one a final post. This post consists of shots I took when I went to Iceland last year when there was the eruption of Volcano Eyjafjallajokull. Despite being delayed at the airport for the day it was an amazing experience to witness this.

 This trip comprised of Whale watching, Kayaking with Seals, seeing all the top sights inc. the blue lagoon but with the constant, monstrous, groans of the volcano and being rained on by the remnants of the eruptions made this trip a once in a life time opportunity and the most amazing experience.

Hope you like the photos!

3rd time lucky?

I went on couple shoots today, one at about 4pm and one later around 6.30pm. The photograph below was taken on the first shoot, this shot was a much better lighting and cloud ratio compared to the later shoot because although the sun was starting to set the overcast was too strong so made the light flat like on the other shoot last week.
This will probably be the last shoot I will be doing before I leave the island, unless the conditions are still good tomorrow. Ideally I am looking for Cumulus clouds (the big, fluffy, white clouds) but I am fairly pleased with this shot.
Let me know what you think! (Click to enlarge)
