A walk around the Newbury Canal - part 2

This short article is a follow up from last week's article on the 'A walk around the Newbury Canal - part 1', all the below photographs have been taken with my mobile phone.

This is a close up photograph which has been edited on the mobile phone to increase the contrast.

Green
This photograph was taken by the park, framed the shoot to have the buildings in the background with the swans in the foreground.

Swans
As I turned around, I saw the boat approaching, took this shot with the swan in the foreground leading all the way to the boat.

Under the bridge
The ripples in the water looked interesting with all the colours and the reflections.

All the above photographs were taken on my mobile phone, each photograph was just enhanced slightly to bring up the colours or converted into a black & white photograph. These photographs have been watermarked in Lightroom.

A walk around the Newbury Canal - part 1

I am always taking photographs either with my DSLRs: Nikon, Fuji, Sony or with my Blackberry. All the photographs have be taken with my mobile phone by the Newbury canal. There are so many photographic opportunities around us, we just have to photograph what catches our interest.

This photograph was taken looking over the bridge, I quite liked the fullness in the trees, the boats and the reflections. As I was looking through the camera, I saw someone walking towards the bridge, I waited for the passer by to appear in the frame before taking the photograph.

View over the bridge
This photograph has been taken looking on the other side of the canal, with framing just the boats.

Boats on the canal

As I was walking further along the canal, the colours and reflections in the water caught my eye - had to take this photograph.

Reflections
Not far from where the above photograph was taken, I spotted this bridge, the light was just amazing the way it was lighting parts of the bridge.

All the above photographs were taken on my mobile phone, each photograph was just enhanced slightly to bring up the colours or converted into a black & white photograph. These photographs have been watermarked in Lightroom.

Look out for the part two of 'A walk around the Newbury Canal'

Portarits on the bridge

I took this photograph on the bridge with flash with a soft box mounted on the stand. The flash was used as a fill and placed it on my left pointing over my shoulder.  I set my camera on manual mode and under exposed the image by 1/ 2 stop in order to enhance the colours in the clouds.

Camera settings:

F4
Exposure 1/500
ISO 100
Flash output: -1/2 stop

Use these settings as a guide, and adjust according to your specific cameras.
