Out For Class

Out For Class
It has been a while since I visited Changi Village for candid pictures. Keen to test out my new toy (a new full-frame DSLR), I made an early morning trip down for some pictures. The new ferry terminal has removed much of the opportunities for high-angle candid photography and I went away rather frustrated with what I was (or was not) getting. I was on my way back to my car when I came across this group of people at a kayaking lesson by the beach. I thought the juxtaposition of the learners standing in the sea versus the neatly laid-out kayaks in the foreground made an interesting contrast.

Front Row Seat At Durdle Door
Another view of Durdle Door on the Dorset coast, this time from a higher viewpoint. I like in particular, the two tiny figures at the bottom right which gave a good sense of scale to the whole scene.

If you have been a regular visitor to this photoblog, you would have noticed some significant changes of late: larger images, decreased clutter, simplified social network sharing and improved navigation head the main list of changes. Do explore the various sections of the site and let me know what you think!

Overlooking Hound Tor

Overlooking Hound Tor
A view of the Hound Tor in Dartmoor, Devon, UK… Supposedly heavily haunted and the inspiration for Conan Doyle’s book ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’, we drove through miles of cold and foggy (not to mention spooky!) moorland before we arrived at this place during our travels earlier this year. There were a few people hiking onto the tor. In our case, the cold got the better of us and we drove off shortly after getting this picture.
