Bio

I fell for photography in October of 2006, and have been hooked ever since, my Canon 5D is almost always with me.

Most of my inspiration comes from seeing other people's great work, and you can see what's been inspiring me at Zooomr here in the last year by taking a look at my Favourites.

I'm always interested to hear people's comments on my photos, so if you've anything to add (good or bad) please do!

I can also be found on flickr at flickr.com/photos/benjaminwatt/

Glasgow University in snow

Glasgow University in snow

The other night whilst walking back from dinner, I decided to take a bit of a detour in search of photo opportunities in what was a snowy Glasgow. A pretty rare thing to see Glasgow this wintery, so suffice to say I was out for a long time getting cold, and covered in snow whilst taking photos. Good fun of course! This shot is looking up the River Kelvin towards the University of Glasgow's Gilbert Scott Building.

Something a bit different from the norm, this is from the Apple Store opening in Glasgow in 2007. It's a good bit of fun going to one of these, not often you get a round of applause just for walking into a shop.

This morning a rather fierce winter storm passed through, stopping my commute into Aberdeen, and leaving me working at home. This was obviously taken during a break.

This was taken whilst in Oban early last year. Haven't quite identified what mountains it is that are shown here, but I think the small island Rubh'a Chruidh is in the middle, with the slightly larger (but still small) island of Kerrera going off to the left.

What grinds my gears

What grinds my gears

After my Canon 5D, my bike is my next favourite possession/obsession. It's a hybrid bike, the Scott Sportster P3 (2008 model), and this is a closeup of the gears, which I found semi-interesting! As the days are getting longer, and the weather occasionally warmer, I'm gradually getting back into a new season of cycling, and it's great. But those gears are never going to look that clean again!

One from the archives that caught my eye as I was clearing through my Lightroom library the other night. The moss and the snow on the branches makes for a fairly nice silhouette.

This is Toddy Pond in East Orland, Maine. My favourite place from my whole US trip. Awesome place, awesome people! And I never had a go on that pedalo, but I was in that lake for a morning swim each day of my stay. Bliss.
