Night Photos in Swanwick Wood, Southampton

July 2nd, 2008

Swanwick Wood in Southampton is cool. It is a man made nature reserve with multiple lakes and plenty of things to photograph. In the day anyway! And as any readers of the blog will know that is not what I like to do.

Anyway, I milked what I could out of the place but came away with 3 or so shots I could use.

Swanwick Wood, Southampton

This is the main lake located by the visitors centre.

As you travel further into the wood there is another lake with a large hillside, this is a relatively long exposure which I managed to capture a few star trails. As you can see one star really stood out for some reason.

This is something a bit different, usually I will just photograph still objects and things that are easy to take photos of (You know.. stuff that doesn’t move!). This is a self portrait. The lighting was acheived with a Canon 430EX on full power from behind me.

As usual all images can be clicked, this will take you to the flickr site where you have the option to view the images larger.
