The Memory Gate Portfolio 2010-2011

St Petersburg 2005

December 18, 2011 – 11:00 am |

This is the last of my retrospective travel photography showcase feature.
These images were taken back in 2005 in my first ever visit to Russia. Earlier in the day we had been photographing tourists at one of St Petersberg’s famous churches (can’t remember which one it was though). On my way back and whilst carrying my [...]

Oslo 2006

December 11, 2011 – 10:00 am |

We’re nearly finished with my year long retrospective, self indulgent, travel photography project. This week’s pictures were taken in Oslo in a fly-in one day visit back in 2006. I have re-visited and re-edited all of these images using the Guy Gowan Process actions and some of my own tinkering.

Rome 2006

December 4, 2011 – 10:00 am |

Whatever type of photography you are into Rome is an absolute goldmine. The millions of vistiors make it amazing for street photographers, the architecture is perfect for any photographer exploring composition and the weather means that you have fantastic light for most of the year.

I visited Rome for the first time in 2006 and spent two full days scouting around the massive ancient city. If I have [...]

Lisbon 2006

November 27, 2011 – 10:00 am | One Comment

I’ve visited Lisbon a handful of times but this series of images was taken back in 2006 after crossing the Atlantic on a 5 sea day repositioning cruise from the Caribbean.

Hamberg 2005

November 20, 2011 – 10:00 am |

Back in 2005 whilst still working on ships we were on repositioning cruise from the Caribbean to Europe and one of our first stops was Hamberg. We actually spent two days in the Hamberg and had a very rare overnight stay in the city. For most of us it was the first time in 4 or 5 [...]

Moving Forward – The final 7 weeks of PhotoCreative365

November 13, 2011 – 7:14 pm | One Comment

Normally I reserve this Sunday slot for an image showcase but this week I just want to share an update about where I will be taking this site in the future.
I started PhotoCreative365 on December 31st 2009 and have published at least one article or podcast everyday since then. This has been by any means [...]

iPhone 4s Images

November 6, 2011 – 2:23 pm |

Well now I have the complete set. iMac, MacBook Pro, iPad 2 and the iPhone 4s. I am now a fully paid up member of the Apple obsessive collective but it is on my last purchase (iPhone 4s) that I am writing this article with some relief. If you listened to podcast Episode 87 you’ll already be aware of my frustration at O2 and my launch day woes.

Rotterdam Skies 2005

October 30, 2011 – 7:29 pm |

I’ve always been interested in photographing architecture for no other reason than pleasure and when I visit a new city I often find myself pointing my camera upwards. This series of images was taken back in 2005 while I was still working on ships.

The Azores – Images part 2 2006

October 23, 2011 – 6:10 pm |

In today’s Sunday showcase I’m continuing my retrospective travel photography project. Although I’m no longer posting these as part of a daily 365 project it’s still nice to go back through the old hard drives to see what I can find.
