Website relaunch soon… :: Urban Blues preview IV
This has been previously published on one original website as part of a series of work showing urban Vancouver, Canada.
I really wanted to included it in my Urban Blues collection for the new website and with this improved treatment, it works just brilliantly!
Seen in Vancouver late at night with a 15 second exposure and the [...]
Website relaunch soon… :: Urban Blues preview III
This is most definitely unpublished from before and for those friends of mine who think that Cleveland, Ohio is an ugly city then look again!
Seen from the lakeside looking towards downtown Cleveland, Ohio, USA :: June 2008
Website relaunch soon… :: Urban Blues preview II
Another discovery from my archive and I believe previously unpublished on my blog and to be fair if I published it before, the treatment I previously gave it wouldn’t be anything like this one!! Enjoy.
Seen in Macao :: September 2008
Website relaunch soon… :: Urban Blues preview I
I’m relaunching my website in a week or so and currently working on the images for the new galleries.
One theme I’ve enjoyed for sometime now is all about night time urban photography. The places are not necessarily well known, but the images are hopefully strong and full of deep blues.
Rediscovered in my archive: Under the [...]
The Urban Shanghai Jungle
After a couple days of the Urban Planning Museum and what they think Shanghai will look like… I feel the need for a present day view!!
This is the night time view from the hotel lobby of the Marriott Hotel at Tomorrow Square on Nanjing Xi Lu in Shanghai. I believe it’s the 38th floor.
The future [...]
EXPO Haibao
It’s big, it’s pale blue and it’s actually made in Taiwan! This is the official mascot to the 2010 Shanghai World Exposition.
Zhongshan Park, Shanghai :: April 2010.
Door and Lock X :: Pale Blue
This will be my last individual image from the Door and Lock series which I took in the Chinatown area of Kuala Terengguna.
Just one more image to go which will be the series of the best 9. Check that out in a few days time…
Malaysia :: April 2010.
Redang Island V :: Palm Trees and Beach Houses
It’s just really quite pleasant here on Redang Island. These beach houses are along the beach from the Leguna Resort and represent the more expensive side of the island. To be fair you really don’t need to stay in one of these places unless you insist on paying more than necessary. However, they do look [...]
Shanghai Blue Underbelly
The neon is taking over Shanghai and it’s making me happy!! This is a view of the underneath of Yanan Lu near Jing’An Temple in Shanghai. The blue neon lights are like these are everywhere under the elevated highways in the city of Shanghai and they are extremely effective!
Hyatt on the Bund :: View towards Pudong
Another break in the Malaysia image flow… this is the view taken from the Hyatt on the Bund Hotel in Shanghai, looking towards the Pudong area. I took this image a few days ago and thought it was quite good for a night time image using my Canon G10.
Singapore by Night
Singapore by night :: April 2010.
Got to say… it’s a pretty cool city/state/country!
Singapore Highway I
I guess I have a fascination for geometric patterns, interesting shapes, the night time and rich saturated colours. Pretty much all of these elements are present in this image and tomorrow’s image. My collection of underpasses and highways is beginning to form a body of work in it’s own write. I even thought I was [...]
More Abstract Blues
Taken whilst messing about with my Canon G10. This was taken whilst walking through a door.
Answers on a postcard… or just click on the comments button and submit…
I’m not exactly sure how this picture came to be. I think it might have been out of the window of a taxi on the way home one evening near the Ya’nan Lu area. Ya’nan Lu has a fabulous blue neon light running the length of the underneath of the elevated highway from around the [...]
Shanghai Lights and Wires
Deep blue, yellow lights and enough cable to go around the Earth several times can be seen around the Yuyuan area of Shanghai.
Vancouver from the rooftops :: Seaplanes
The Harbour Air Seaplanes are a common site in Vancouver.
This image was taken in July 2008 during my time living in Vancouver. Processed January 2010.
Towards Horseshoe Bay from Cypress Mountain
Another 2008 view from Cypress Mountain. This time we are looking north towards Horseshoe Bay.
Many of the 2010 Winter Olympic events will be taking place on Cypress Mountain and the views are spectacular!
The City of Vancouver from Cypress Mountain
Vancouver images from 2008 at a time when the city was in full swing preparing for the 2010 Winter Olympic games.
The Blue Mosque, Istanbul
A night time view (without tripod!) of the Blue Mosque in Istabul :: December 2009.
Shanghai @ Night :: Shanghai Art Gallery
The Shanghai Art Gallery is has a great location just off Nan Jing Xi Lu and overlooks People’s Square.
Construction near People’s Square, Shanghai
It seems like I’ve been living in cities of construction for the past 3 years. First Vancouver where they have been preparing for the 2010 Winter Olympics for the last few years, and now Shanghai where rapid construction seems to be a way of life - and especially because of the World Expo taking place [...]
The Yarra River in central Melbourne
Following on my usual theme of night time blues, here’s a picture from central Melbourne of the Yarra River.
