Beautiful photography from Shutterbetty

Milton Keynes based Artist/Photographer – Elizabeth Gorden, aka Betty from Shutterbetty, got in touch yesterday with some nice words about the blog (thanks Betty) and a request to be featured in our Creative Links section.

After checking out the work on display over at www.shutterbetty.co.uk it was the least I could do to share her talents with the readers of BeyondM25.

She has a great portfolio of commercial work but also an amazing collection of thought provoking art projects on display too, definitely worth checking out.

instagr.am and ClassicTOY great fun iPhone camera apps

Apologies for the lack of posting over the last week or so. The reason for this being that my family and I managed a little get away to the stunning Lake District in Cumbria (well ‘beyond the M25′) for a week.

We’ve been going there for over 10 years now and it gets better every time. I highly recommend getting up there as it truly is a magical place, regardless of the weather (in fact, i’d goes as far as to say, a little bit of rain brings out the magic).

Anyway enough of me rambling on about my rambling, whilst I was away I had plenty of time to have a good play with two really great fun iPhone camera apps.

instagr.am being more of a photo sharing app, think flickr meets twitter with the added functionality of some lovely effects you can apply to your photos and ClassicTOY being more or what you’d expect from a camera app offering you all sorts of crazy lens to play about with and try to master.

Here’s are some of my meager attempts:

WVIL – Is this the future of photography after cameras die?

Ooooo, as someone who really enjoys taking photos but am a long way off being able to call myself even an amateur photographer, this is really exciting…

Wireless Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens (WVIL) is a concept camera designed by Artefact which takes the connectivity and application platform capabilities of today’s smart phones and wirelessly connects them with interchangeable full SLR-quality optics – sign me up!

Read a great article on the WVIL over at Fast Company’s blog here.

Frazer Waller Photography

I’ve been meaning to post about and add Frazer to our creative links section here at BeyondM25 since first meeting him at the Milton Keynes Design Forum last year.

Frazer is a reportage photographer based in Buckinghamshire, UK and I for one am a big fan of Frazer’s gritty honest style – see more of his work here.

Peter Watkins, a Birmingham based photographer, recently got in touch with a request to be added to our Creative Links section here at BeyondM25.

After checking out his work on show on his site and then noticing he’d also had a mention in the International Photography Awards it was the least I could do was to add him. Welcome Peter…

Simon Winnall Photography

Latest on our list of talented photographers beyond the M25 is Birmingham based Simon Winnall who got in touch with a view to being added to our ‘creative links’ section.

I Think emotion is wonderfully evident in all of his distinctively retro styled shots, leaving me wanting to find out more about what happened before and after the moment captured. Stunning, see more here – www.simonwinnall.com

Beautiful photography by Julian Calverley

Fresh on the blocks in our Beyond M25 Creative Links section is the talented photographer Julian Calverley from sunny Hitchin.

I love the atmosphere created on every one of Julians shots be it a moody, intense landscape or a light, airy office portrait he seems to get it just right every time.

Adding another feather to his cap is stunning his underwater series, see more here.
