12th May 201914th May 2019Craig Rogers

Had a great time yesterday at the SOS Algarve Animal Dog Walk & Photo Shoot Charity event. Even though the numbers attending were a little less than we hoped, it was still a great day raising money for such a great charity! For more information this amazing charity, please see their WEBSITE and FACEBOOK PAGE.

It really was a pleasure to help and of course, have a great time with all the dogs! I went along on the walk to capture some photographs and these will follow in a couple of days, below are the individual photo shoots. If you had a photo shoot, I will contact you separately with details to download your photos!

NEWS: I Now Offer Personal Nature Walks

10th April 201910th April 2019Craig Rogers

As probably know I run an occasional free Nature Walks here in the Algarve Hills where everyone is welcome. They are very popular and spaces are limited often meaning people miss out. I have been asked on many occasions if I would run private walks to compliment my free ones.

Well, I can now announce that private Walks are now available. Of course, I cannot run these for free so there is just a small cost of just €10 per person with a minimum charge of €30. To keep these walks personal the maximum group size is 10 people. For example, a group of 8 people is €80 (€10 per person) and a group size of 1, 2 or 3 persons is €30.

More information can be found on the Product Page and please Contact Me for your own private booking.

21st March 201921st March 2019Craig Rogers

I often mention PhotoPills, the app I use mainly for predicting the location Sun, Moon and Stars. Occasionally I submit a photo where I’ve used PhotoPills to their “Award” competition. They select a photo everyday which goes onto make up a monthly award and onto their yearly award. At the end of the year, the create a digital book that showcases every daily award for that year.

The Full Moon Rise Photo I took towards the end of September was chosen on the 1st October as an award photo and of course it is now included in the end of the year “PhotoPills Awards 2018” book. It is amongst some amazing photos from around the world and you can download the whole book (for free) from the PhotoPills Website.

Here is a screen print of page 219 of the book where my image appears.

You may start to see some various changes to the website over the next coming days, please ignore any Shop links that may appear as orders will not go through. Over the last few months, I have been busy putting together a new studio at home, yes, I’ve literally moved into part of our attic! As you can see there is a little decorating to do, but it’s fully functional and ready to start printing from a professional Canon Printer. And yes, that is a small digital drum kit to whack when I’m having a bad/slow day!

Another For Something Completely Different: Working With A Local Artist To Digitise Artwork

31st January 201931st January 2019Craig Rogers

A couple of weeks ago, I was asked by local artist Julia de Jesus Palma to assist in digitising her original artwork to enable her to produce prints. Of course, as I shoot with a Nikon D850 (and even the D810) the very high-resolution is perfect for this type of work.

Julia has a unique and often copied style called “Oneline Design” whereas the amazing artwork consists of a single line continuous line which never crosses itself! I was so taken by it, I now even have a print of the example image below to proudly display at home.
