Messge To Bears T-shirts

Messge to Bears (aka MTB) are a band from Oxford who were so kind enough to play at our wedding last year. I designed this simple t-shirt for them and today in the post two arrived for us!

Bellow are some of the ideas from start to finish.

1) Using Pen, Pencil, Ink and paint at first to create a more textured feel on different outlines of bears.

2) Scanned the images in and fitted them on t-shirt outline while manipulating them to create more ideas.

3) The final, best three images were chosen and then one was chosen from them :)

These pictures were taken with the 50mm, but in very low light, so please forgive these photos ;)

This was a perfect opportunity to use the 50mm lens when the sun was low in the sky.

Smile Japan Exhibition (ganbare Japan)

The Farmers Fields

There has been lots of bad weather lately, so not many good opportunities to take the camera out. One evening last week was very nice, so we went up to the farmers fields just after sun set. This is what we saw, taken with the kit lens 18-55mm

Lovely English weather...

Unfortunately I haven't been able to go out much lately with my camera due to the terrible weather. Its has been sometime since I have posted here so bellow are a few photos I took last summer (When there was actually some good weather!). Let hope we get our summer soon!

This weekend has been very relaxing, just what I needed! We managed to visit Wendover Woods before the weather turned on us. The photo bellow is from our little visit, edited it Photoshop I decided to make this into a wallpaper / graphic. Taken with the 50mm 1.8 lens.

London MCM Expo Exhibition 2011 & Hyde Park

On Saturday (28.05.11) we went to the MCM Expo exhibition at the London ExCeL center (Londons Comic Con). It seems I was more fascinated with everything around me instead of taking any decent pictures. Afterwards we went to Hyde Park to see if we could watch the Champions League final between Barcelona and Manchester United. That plan didn’t turn out too well as they weren’t showing the football there!

Bellow is two HDR pictures taken in Hyde Park. I edited the colours in Photoshop to create a darker feel as the weather wasn’t too good that day.
