A Walk in the Woods – Burnham Beeches
With no shoots scheduled I took the opportunity yesterday to venture out of the city to Burnham Beeches, just a 30 minute drive from London. If you recognise the trees then its because the woods have been used for many films, including: Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, Goldfinger, Princess Bride and two of the Harry Potter movies.
Tech: I took a few lenses out with me but in the end only used my most recent acquisition; the Nikon 45mm f/2.8 PC lens, mounted on the Nikon D810 with a Manfrotto L Plate and Manfrotto tripod.

Exterior of The Velodrome, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park
Seeing gorgeous evening on the way back from an Essex job I stopped off at The Velodrome to grab a few exterior shots as the sun fell to the horizon. I liked the way the sun was reflected in the windows of the building – giving a double set of shadows on the pavement.

While on assignment in Hong Kong last month I took the opportunity to pick up the new Nikon D810, and a Nikon PC-E 24mm f/3.5 lens. The lens allows you to tilt and shift to help keep perspective correct and increase potential depth of field. I took it down to the very centre of London last night to test it out…
