Clearout

I have had a massive clearout and now I have various photography books and some other photographic equipment for sale. If you want a detailed list, please email me at
Martina at MartinaCross.com

If I have some time I will list it all here later on...

And before you think that I might be quitting photography.... no I wont :-)))

Its Hip To Be Square!

This will be the last image you see with my old logo Martina Cross Photography on. I have updated the logo to reflect on my MartinaCross.com website (Martinacrossphotography. co.uk is no more as it was such a handful to type) and to make it a tincy bit more difficult for my images to be ilegally used by others. So out with the old and in with the new...

May I formally introduce you to the new logo!

I always liked square images, but hardly used this format myself. Well.... this is about to change now. Watch this space!

Nighttime Photography Presentation

Yesterday evening it I had another turn at giving a presentation at Thurso Camera Club.

This time I was asked to talk about "Nighttime Photography". I had prepared a short 20 minute presentation where I explained about the essentials & basics and then I showed the best shots of my "Nighttime" portfolio.

After that the members were encouraged to have a go themselves at trying to capture night photos at Scrabster harbour. Quite a few went along and for a short time the harbour are was buzzing with folks running around with tripods.

Weatherwise the night could hardly be any better, with some really good glassy reflections!

Here are a few of the images that I have captured...

2010

The new year is barely a few days old, and I am back from my DSLR-less holiday.

The past year was very kind to me, yet again and in the coming year I have set myself two major goals to reach, but more of this matter later on...

Meanwhile I hope you will enjoy coming back to visit my blog and see whats going on and what I am up to photography wise...

The new year spoilt me with great views already, I will upload them when I got another spare minute... or three...

Flying Sky

This lightning fast dog proofes a real photographic challenge, nevertheless, he is such good fun and we wouldnt want to miss him at all!

Solar Pillars

There has been two very nice displays of solar pillars in the past week. Clear skies and cold weather made this display possible. Get some more infos on them here

Blue, Blue, Electric Blue...

The past few clear days produced the most stunning morning light. Here are a few of this weeks captures. I just love this warm late winter lighting and I could stay out for hours if it wasnt for the cold :-)

Its A Stags World!

Yesterday we stroke lucky in seeing some big groups of stags while being out on a drive. I was very happy to fill up my stag shot portfolio with over 300 more pictures that I took in a very short space of time! The icing on the cake was that I found a nice 5 pointed antler too :-)

Here are some "shots" of those magnificent beasts...
