It’s amazing to think how many short lived displays of nature like this must have come and gone over time, so here’s three immortalised for ever.

I’m very pleased to have received a commendation in the Take a View Landscape Photographer of the Year competition for my image of the Lake District. It will appear in the exhibition at Waterloo Station on the new mezzanine level from the 1st of December through until the end of January as well as being displayed on the 40m wide motion@waterloo display! There’s some great images along with mine so I recommend taking a look if you’re in the London/Waterloo area. And if you’re not there’s always the book where my shot is printed over a double page spread. You can see more of my landscapes here. All images ©Adrian Lyon

Architectural Photography of the Sydney Opera House

Here’s a couple of shots from a mini folio of architectural images I’ve been working on which I shot earlier in the year while we were in Sydney. The black and white really sets off the tones of the Opera House against the dark sky and emphasises the wonderful graphic shapes and angles (with just a hint of Storm Trooper here and there!). Love it!
There’s more of these as an mini folio/album on my Facebook page as well as a couple of my favourites in my Architecture Portfolio. Please have a look and add to me your likes. All images ©Adrian Lyon

Great memories from the London 2012 Olympics which opened a year ago today

It seems hard to believe a whole year has gone by since we were all eagerly anticipating the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Sadly I didn’t get to attend that but I did get see some of the action in the stadium during the Paralympics where I took this panoramic image. It’s made up from five individual frames which were carefully stitched together, which is not as easy as you think when shooting hand held! A wonderful time to be in London no doubt about it!

I’m really pleased to announce the start of a new partnership with Gallery Stock who are a premier stock agency based in New York and London. Gallery Stock offers creative content from some of the most internationally distinguished photographers in the industry. From the Gallery Stock website “…The concept is simple: to license only the highest-quality photography to premium customers. Gallery Stock connects art buyers, photo editors, art directors, and designers with the photographers they know by name from the fine art world and the commercial assignment industry…”.

You can follow a link on the screen shot above to my images represented by Gallery Stock (which will be growing in number as the year progresses) and from there to the rest of their website. All images ©Adrian Lyon/Gallery Stock.
