Lego assisted Jigsaw
Posted by david purdie on
Got a nice email from gallery customer Peter Noakes who has spent 3 days (blimey!) making a lovely stop frame animation of Lego trucks assembling our jigsaw of Mermaid Street. Do take a look it is really well done. Thanks for sending me it Peter. David
storm Ciara in hastings
Posted by david purdie on
Like many photographers a terrible storm is just what I need to get out taking pictures. As I have found before, weather like this is impressive and exciting to look at but hard to photograph. Eveything is a bit grey and hazy, and the movement is what is exciting about a strom. So the obvious problem is finding something that expresses that. Big waves under the pier a very wet pier someone leaning into the wind
Lightning!!

This isn't really a gallery picture, but i liked it so much I thought it deserved a place on the website slideshow. Having said that do let me know if you want a limited edition print of this - it could be done. Shot last week at about 1AM from my kitchen back door in tenterden. I post pictures like this now and then on instgram @purdiegallery David
night workshop in hastings
Posted by david purdie on
A night workshop last Friday, and for the later part quite bad weather! So no stars, but great wet streets in Hastings reflecting the street lights.
First 2019 workshop day with ALL weathers!

2109 has been off to a busy start at the gallery. I have been out shooting in all sorts of weather. On my first workshop of the year we we had gloom then sun then fog, and got some really intersting pictures on the beach at Winchelsea.
