Left (top) This is a four-shot, in-camera

multiple exposure made using ‘dark

blend’ mode. The subject is reed beds

in Loch na Moracha, Isle of Harris.

At fi rst I tried multiple ‘straight’ shots,

but these didn’t really work, as the

light was fl at and the sky was leaden

grey. However, changing the blend

mode brought out more colour and

texture, and after a bit of trial and

error rotating the camera I got the

eff ect I was aiming for.

Left (middle) Taken at Bishop Wood

near Sherburn in Elmet, North

Yorkshire. This small pond has

gradually succumbed to a thick green

covering of algae, and over time various

bits of wood have appeared through it.

Left (bottom) These refl ections of

grasses at RSPB Langford Lowfi elds

in Nottinghamshire remind me of

Japanese writing. They stand out

particularly well on days when there

is little wind, but here I reduced the

blue tones of the water and increased

the contrast in post-production to

enhance the graphic eff ect.

Opposite (top) When I noticed these

rocks and refl ections on Lough Ree

in Ireland, I took the shot without any

hesitation, combining a three-stop ND

grad fi lter with a 10-stop ND fi lter.

Opposite (bottom) The photo was

taken in Elswout Estate in Overveen,

Netherlands, close to my home. It is

a beautiful place and I go there on a

regular basis. Because it is so familiar

to me I have to work hard to make

fresh images, but this is one of them.
