Photographing the Supermoon | Stoodley Pike | PhotoPills World Meetup 17th October 2024
This is a short video of the walk upto the location of one of the PhotoPills 1st World Meetup events organised by Lee Mansfield and Joe Jackson to photograph the October Supermoon rising above Stoodley Pike, Todmorden, West Yorkshire, UK.
Around 20 photographers from as far away as London and the Fylde Coast attended and enjoyed a bit of banter while waiting for the moon to rise. All was well with a clear view behind the pike, then at the last minute a bank of cloud appeared and prevented full view behind Stoodley Pike.
A quick hobble back down the muddy path allowed me to capture the moon as it traversed back above the pike, and within view just above the cloud line.
This video shows my journey upto the meeting point and my attempts at photographing the Supermoon.
Equipment :
Videos : Gopro Hero 12
Photographs : Nikon Z8 / Nikkor 180 - 600 f5.6 - f6.3 lens. Nest Tripod

Wildlife Photography | Leighton Moss RSPB Reserve | Bearded Tits and Red Deer
Переглядів 288Місяць тому
We had a little trip to Leighton Moss RSPB Reserve in search of the Bearded Tits, or Bearded Reedlings if you prefer. There are two sections of the reserve where grit trays are placed within the reed beds for the birds to access grit which is needed this time when they change their diet from insects to seeds. The grit helps them to digest the seeds. The images and video were taken at the grit t...

We ventured up to the Scottish Borders in search of heather and wildlife, combining a mixture of Landscape and Wildlife Photography. We booked into a nice little cottage on a working farm just outside of Selkirk which gave us a great base to travel out from. Over the week, we traveled to the Pentland Hills where the heather was just phenomenal. We hiked up to the “Three Brethren” on the Souther...

    I was just saying on another post of long eared in Lancashire that I didn't know that they bred here in Lancashire and I have only seen them twice in the wild once at Belmont and again in Tockholes and a few at a roost in Blackpool a long time ago.... I'm in Blackburn and I have watched the short eared owl on the moorland nesting behind Darwen tower and they have been around there for years... just wondering if I could have an inclination of where roughly i could have a chance to see them here in Lancashire....i understand the implications so......
