Bill Nighy at the Cambridge Union Society

I was asked recently by BAFTA to photograph an event with the actor Bill Nighy ‘A Life in Pictures with Bill Nighy’ held at the Cambridge Union Society. The event was a Q&A  with the journalist Miranda Sawyer. The brief was to photograph without flash the  Q & A on stage and the audience asking questions. Bill has acted in many great roles in such films as ‘Love Actually, Pirates of the Caribbean’ I really enjoyed listening to his humble approach to acting and career. Low light capability of the Nikon D3s came into its own. Technical: Nikon D3s / ISO 6400 / 80-200mm lens. 200th/s f/4

Go Beyond Ultra – Mud & Mayhem Race Photography – Gallery removed

Images from this event are now no longer available.

Go Beyond’s Mud and Mayhem off road Duathlon was as you would expect a little like that, except without the mayhem the whole event was very well organised! For instance free tea, coffee and jelly babies were my points of interest. The event began with heavy snowfall and then almost continuous rain throughout in freezing temperatures. I did keep warm by running between the cycle and running sections of the event but I still could not get ahead of  the very fittest. It was great to meet some of the competitors and see them all in action, especially those who were competing for the first time. I am looking forward to returning in March at the second Mud and Mayhem event.

All the photographs were shot as RAW using D3s with either 80-200mm f2.8 or 24-70mm f2.8 with KATA rain jacket. Processed and uploaded to PS using Lightroom. To see all the images from the event hit the slideshow above.
