LRPS Panel


Revised_Layout.jpg

The panel from my successful LRPS application to the assessment held at the NEC on 25 February 2007. The images are shown in the order in which the panel was displayed. There was a comment that the panel could have been ordered better, but it was also acknowledged that it is not a set of pictures that is particularly easy to group.

Lake District


Derwent_Water.jpg

Taken in February 2006. Despite it being a very wet month, I had three days of glorious weather for the shoot. There are a couple more images of Blea Tarn from this series in my LRPS Panel gallery.

Marrakesh


Les_Ombres.jpg

At once both the most photographically intriguing yet frustrating places I have visited. Pictures abounded everywhere, but the constant hassle and hustle that western tourists receive meant I was nervous about getting my camera out for much of the time. We stayed in the medina, with its mediaeval and impenetrable layout, people working in the streets everywhere. If I had produced a camera there, I would have undoubtedly changed the dynamics of the very scenes I would have been trying to photograph.

Another image from Crete. Walking around a village at the western end of the island, I came across this outside someone's house.

Worbarrow Bay, Dorset, in the twilight after sunset. I am not sure that cement blocks, possibly left over from wartime defences actually count as rocks, but it would be a less catchy title!

Pulpit.jpg
Pulpit69 viewsMike Farley LRPS
The light from a low mid winter sun was illuminating the columns and pulpit at Canterbury Cathedral. I have since returned there, only to find that a large sign has been erected on one of the pillars close to the pulpit. Repeating this shot would now require deft use of Photoshop.

Brighton or Bust!89 viewsMike Farley LRPS
I have lived very close to the route of the London Brighton Veteran Car Run for a number of years, but had never been sufficiently organised to get up early on the Sunday morning of the rally to take pictures. That is until 2007. I was very fortunate that just as I pressed the shutter, the driver of this steam car leaned forward and his passenger looked at him - I could not asked for more. Winner of the photo competition run in conjunction by the LBVCR organisers.

Waiting at the top of Hardknott Pass by the Roman fort on a freezing afternoon for a sunset which was disappointing, this was the recompense.
Shades.jpg
Shades30 viewsMike Farley LRPS
When the sun is in the right position, the long thin windows at the end of the Turbine Hall at the Tate Modern throw these distinctive shadows. A wait of around 45 minutes eventually yielded the desired pattern of vistors leaving the building. Accepted for the 2010 Surrey Photograpic Association biennial exhibition.

Gigrin Farm in Powys is an excellent place to take pictures of these magnificent birds as they are encouraged to come in close by being fed at the same time each day. This was actually my second visit and I wanted to return as it had rained on the first occasion. The weather this time? Raining!!!

These words are engraved on the floor of the Great Court at the British Museum, providing the opportunity to make a literal image. Whilst taking the sequence from which this is selected, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of people who either hung back or apologised for walking through whilst I was shooting, thinking that they might have spoilt the picture!

Piano Grande39 viewsMike Farley LRPS
The Mt Sibillini National Park, Umbria, is one of the most beautiful areas that I have visited. I was there in May, when the wild flowers are in bloom and which really adds to the appeal of the place. The sun breaking through just after dawn was a real bonus at the Piano Grande, which is already a spectacular location.
