Aviva Grand Prix indoor athletics

A set from the Aviva Grand Prix indoors athletics at the NIA Birmingham came up in my backlog this week.



BBC Presenters aplenty since the meet was broadcast live, that's Iwan Thomas roaming the floor. Always interesting to see it from the other side of the camera, here's the starter's gun(s)!



It's actually much smaller than you'd think from the TV coverage which makes for great viewing, and there's so much going on it's a great event.

British Summer Holiday

This week I processed some stock of Swanage Bay in Dorset. Probably one of the most photographed stretches of coast in the UK, but nevertheless worthwhile.


Highlights are Old Harry Rocks, and a the arch and stacks of the Pinnacles, returning to the bay at Swanage itself.



The rest of the set's here

Common Wasps (vespula vulgaris)

My latest shoot from my own back yard, after discovering that a hoard of wasps have made a nest in the debris from when I cut in the vegetable patch, is now available for licensing or print ordering. You can see the whole set at my Stock Image Galleries

Remember that customers from the UK and Europe get discounted shipping on my prints and canvasses at Fine Art America - Andy Smy, and you can license my images 24 hours a day through Alamy - Andy Smy

Limited Editions and Outlets in the UK

Time passes and the blog sits waiting...




I have now started selling limited editions of a number of pieces on UK sites as well as the open editions (above) still selling well through Fine Art America. The first outlet is ArtGallery.co.uk where I have a small number of prints from Japan and Vegas. The second outlet is worldwide but supports Europe and has a sample of the limited editions Etsy

Guitar Art

I spent some time on Saturday working on an illustration of a guitar and was inspired to create some digital art from it, and here's the results, so far:



The latter two are combinations of my photos with the illustration. I'm thinking I might do more of these as they are very satisfying for a little creativity.
