Good morning from Washington, UK. This morning's image is of Seaham Lighthouse and reflects the current, seemingly relentless dull weather we are experiencing at the moment. #blackandwhitephotography #minimalism #moodygrams #lighthouse #seascape

Good morning from NE England, Hope you are all well. Who doesn't love a bit of nighttime BNW? So here is Brugge at night. #Brugge #BlackAndWhitePhotography #LongExposure #NightPhotography #ArchitectureLovers

In my latest video, I test the Sony a7RV at ISO 16,000 to see how it holds up against traditional tripod-based long exposures. I also dive into the workflow using DxO PureRaw and PhotoLab 9 to see just how much detail we can recover. The video link is waiting for you in the first comment! ⬇️

Istanbul: A true photographer’s paradise. From the historic skyline to the incredible clarity of light on the Bosphorus, this city is a visual masterclass. 🇹🇷📸 Watch the full location guide on my YouTube channel. Link in my bio! 🔗 #Istanbul #PhotographyTips #TravelPhotography #LocationGuide

When Pinterest labels your image, shot in 2009 on a Nikon D3, as AI 🙄 Complaint duly lodged #antarctica #AIisnotart #photography

My latest video is called “Is The Tripod Dead?” In the first minutes I clearly point out the tripod isn’t dead but that AI denoise can dramatically reduce the need for one in some cases. Doesn’t stop some from rushing to judgement without actually watching

Good morning from a wet and wild Washington. Not the sort of day for going out - even as a photographer. The next in my successful Photographer Location Guide videos will release this weekend. A bucket list location but not impossible to reach. Any guesses. #photo #photographer

I have never had so much engagement on my YouTube channel. Currently averaging over 2000 views a day mainly due to the film I put out last week on using a 50 year old lens on a 61mp camera. #filmphotography #oldlens #Youtube

Good morning from NE England. This morning's image is a slightly oblique view of London. #theshard #photooftheday #visitlondon

Good morning from a damp NE England. This location will feature in an upcoming Photographer's location guide" on my channel. It is very much a bucket list location but despite what you might think, accessible to mere mortals. But where is it? #photography #bucketlist #photooftheday

Good morning from NE England, hope you are all well. This image was shot last week at 12800ISO handheld. It will feature in Sunday's Youtube video. Any guesses as to the exact subject I will be discussing? #NewcastleUponTyne #TyneBridg #QuaysideNewcastle #LocalBusiness

Good morning from Washington Uk (the sane one) Hope you are all well. Given the confusing state of the world at the moment, here's a little peace and calm from Sri Lanka #SeemaMalaka #BuddhistTemple #TravelPhotography pin.it/2CrazMmXc via @pinterest

A shade under 1000 views in 24 hours is one of the best starts to a video in a while. Even more satisfying as it's a video I am particularly proud of. #VintageLensRevival, #MinoltaToModern, #SonyAlphaShooters, #FilmLensOnDigital youtu.be/N_KyDCILO3o

I’ve always felt that photography is better served when it has a bit of room to breathe. I’ve started a Pinterest page to act as a more permanent home for the moods and locations I’ve captured across England. uk.pinterest.com/jasonrowphoto/

Good morning from NE England, hope you had a good weekend. This morning's image comes from the beaches of the Black Sea in Odesa. It needs several days below -15C for the sea to freeze like this. #photography #odesa #ukraine

I put my late father’s 50-year-old Minolta lens on my 61MP Sony a7Rv to see if it could handle the resolution. 📸 The results blew me away—especially the "film aesthetic" and surprising sharpness at 70mm. Watch here: youtu.be/N_KyDCILO3o #SonyAlpha #Photography #Minolta #A7Rv

Good morning from NE England. Are we spending too much on lenses? What if I told you this was shot on Sony a7Rv using a 50 year old Minolta kit lens. Manual focus, manual exposure. Find out more in my next video, out Sunday. Channel link in my profile. #photooftheday #filmphotography #minolta

I took this shot 4 years ago today. It's not a great image, just an iPhone snap from a plane window. It's significance is that it was the last photo I took of Odesa. I had fully expected to be back home in a few weeks. however, the whole world changed before I could return.

AI denoise can be astounding. There was literally no light here this morning, these images were shot at 16000 ISO and denoised in Lightroom. Would I make large prints, no. However they are still very usable images. #jaguar #sonya7rv #adobelightroom

Morning from NE England. Shot Youtube videos in two locations this morning, first well before sunrise on Newcastle Quayside. Second at St Mary's Lighthouse for sunrise, shooting on a 50 year old lens. #NEEngland #NewcastleQuayside #StMarysLighthouse #UKPhotographers

I’ve been testing DxO Photo Lab 9 for my professional stock workflow. If you're tired of the subscription model or just want better noise reduction for those high-ISO shots, this might be the answer. Full video walk-through here: youtu.be/x2f8JzAm5EA #PhotographyCommunity #DxO #PostProcessing

Morning from NE England. What are your plans for the weekend? This is one more dit from Monday's flight with the DJI Air 3S at the Penshaw Monument. #NorthEast #photooftheday #dronephotography

Gentrification, urban renewal or just a general and gradual improvement, as photographers we can document that change. #photography #gentrification #photographer Photographing Places As They Change www.lightstalking.com/photographin... via @lightstalking

Good morning from Washington UK. Today is a writing day, currently typing an article for Light Stalking This morning's image comes from the banks of the Tyne, in late summer 2023 and shows off the spectacular array of bridges #newcastle #photography #photooftheday #northeast

Morning from Washington UK. How's your week so far? I am starting to prepare Sunday's Youtube video this morning, meanwhile here are two more images from the Penshaw Monument taken on my Air 3S on Monday #dronephotography #penshawmonument #photooftheday #northeastengland

That time I got copyright claimed on my own work. Yes really. #copyright #photography #photographer www.lightstalking.com/i-just-got-a...

Good morning from NE England. Looks like we are about to thaw out a little up here. Yesterday's trip to the Penshaw yielded some decent video and stills even if the weather was not great. #penshawmonument #penshaw #ukphotography #landscapephotography #dronephotography

And we are off....

Morning from NE England. Took the drone out to get some snow shots of Penshaw and got the Jag stuck in the snow. Back on the road with the help of a truck driver. Excuse the woolly hat hair 🤣 #photo #photographer

There are six stages to a photographer's life. In this tongue in cheek video, I take a look at all of them. Which one are you at? Hopefully not the SMUG stage. #photography #photographer #Photomode youtu.be/XSTBXYFOlnc

I should just qualify that these videos will be editorial opinion pieces not tutorials. Things about the state of play in photography. I don’t want to go down the TikTok tutorial road, it’s a very bad way to learn photography. Think “Why Photography Has Become So Generic”

Good morning from Washington, UK. I'm starting the year in a way I don't intend to continue. From tomorrow, I'll begin a new project: walking and creating daily shorts about photography—no tutorials, just my thoughts based on over 40 years of experience. Any suggestions for subjects?

With the last hours of 2025 dwindling away, I want to wish all that follow me a very happy 2026. For me in 2026, it will be much the same, more photography and more Youtube videos about photography. #NewYear2026 #photographyisart

Do you remember Nik Plugins? I hadn’t used them in nearly 15 years, so this is a genuine fresh look at what the DxO Nik Collection is like today — what still works, what doesn’t, and who they’re really for. Video link in the first comment. 👇 #photography #photoediting #nikplugins #nikcollection

Christmas in Lviv, in 2018. Snow, lights and markets. Possibly the most Christmassy city I have ever been to. It's also famous for it's fantastic food, chocolate, coffee and beer. #photooftheday #lviv #christmas

Who on Earth is Nik and why should we remember him. All will be revealed in tomorrow's video. It goes live at the earlier time of 12.00pm UTC. Channel link in bio #photography #Photomode #photoediting
