Sepia tone in Lightroom

I took some trout pictures in Capernwray yesterday and whilst downloading them, started playing with the greyscale conversion in Lightroom and using the split toning function. One comment I have had about my Capernwray is that the pictures are too blue, so Ithought adding some greenish tint back into the black and white may work.

I'm not sure what do you think?

Sardine Run footage

Same more amazing footage from South Africas Sardine Run in 2007. I think this was taken from the BBC Natures Great Events series that aired here in the UK earlier this year. Stunning visuals, and narrated by Our Lord (!) David Attenborough.

My video on BBC

I am quite ridiculously proud of the fact that BBC news and News 24 used some stock segments of underwater video that I had shot at Capernwray last Wednesday. They used them to illustrate a section on the impact of the banking crisis on small business! Thye sprung the request on me on Tuesday, and I had to let them have some footage that I keep here for illustrating some points on our PADI Open Water course. Given that the clips were not my best work, I was pleased that they got used, and they did actually look really good on the broadcast.

Rightly or wrongly, seeing my footage on a national broadcast has really made me very chuffed!

Discovery Channel-more sensational rubbish

Discovery have launched another week of bad biology and sensationalist crap about sharks. Thay continue to vilify these apex predators in order to satisfy (or stoke) a perceived public need for gore on TV. Wolfang Leander makes an eloquent case-Discovery Channel
