I just love this area of trees which are `Poplar Trees` which was planted to shelter some wonderful lakes furher down the lane!

Taken by the `River Arun` very early in the morning at a small village called Houghton,West Sussex,England.

Up Nice and Early to catch this Amazing Sunrise.

Taken nr Amberley in Sussex England at about 4.40am Just as sun was rising I did not see full sun that morning until approx 9.30am because as the sun

My favorite insect of all the amazing 'Dragonfly'

Waiting by the River Bank, The Moment won`t be Long, The Light, The Warmth, The Colour Change, The Sound of Feathered Song, This is Where I Love to be

As the Sun came up the light flooded through the wood.

Taken on Holiday in Cornwall at the `Tor` where legend says the Devil was chased across the valley in to the sea.

Taken in Houghton near Arundel

Sunrise and my 300mm Macro lens to take the web the sun makes the web much more dramatic.

Behind The Lens

Location

It was taken in a very small village called Houghton near Amberley,Sussex,England.

Time

Taken on the 8th April 2014 at 5.45am

Lighting

It was taken at the best time photos can be taken which is known as the Magic Hour or the Golden hour during which daylight is redder and softer compared to when the Sun is higher in the sky.

Equipment

I used my Nikon D5000 with the standard 18-55mm Kit lens with VR turned on as know tripod was used.

Inspiration

I have been going to this place for over 40years and first camped there at the age of 15 but over the past year I have taken photos from all for seasons of sunrises and nature all around the area. It is an amazing place that will always have a special place in my heart.

Editing

I shoot in Raw so I do process all my photos so vary in what I choose to do or not, I use Nikons viewNX2 to edit my raw files and convert to Jpeg.

In my camera bag

Now I have upgraded to the Nikon D5200 plus my Nikon 18-200mm VR/ Tamron 70-300mm with Macro and the 18-55mm Kit Lens.

Feedback

First and foremost you will need to find a place where the sunrises which can take some finding its nature so what you are given is what you will get, Its all about the time and keeping an eye on the weather for the early morning you are going and of course a bit of luck ie cloud formations, Mist, Fog, and many other things besides but be persistent and you will get some amazing shots. Good Luck!!
