If you need a series of images to publicise you business, products or services then let me know? I am a local photographer with experience in how to make the most of your business whether its a large store a small stand or a home based enterprise. These shots were taken at the Cornish Vegan in Truro (http://thecornishvegan.com), if you would like something similar contact me on paulbnashphotography@gmail.com. 

A big thank you to the Creek artists (https://www.facebook.com/creekartsandcrafts/?fref=ts) who invited me to join them at their Fair at Devoran last Saturday. What a great event with a large footfall and a wide selection of artists including a painter, jewellers, sculptor, ceramists, printmaker and myself the photographer. This will be great practice for open studios at the end of May with quite a few lessons learnt. Its also worth mentioning the great support I received from friends and family. The Coombe art class and Truro Camera club (http://www.trurocameraclub.btck.co.uk) members were present in large numbers. A Big thank you to all of you! 

This week I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to photograph two different types of composition.  Initially the very talented Tamsin Dearing (www.tamsindearing.co.uk) asked me to photograph her work which is now on display and for sell at the Cornish Vegan Restaurant in Truro. Secondly Dawn from the restaurant asked me to photograph the space itself for use on her social media pages (thecornishvegan.com). If you get the chance to sample the food and drink and enjoy Tamsins art do not hesitate! If there any other business' who would like something similar then drop me a line.

Over the last week I have been selecting, framing and mounting the prints ready for the exhibition on the 18th at Devoran. With a lot of help from my wife Dawn we are making progress and we should be up and ready to go with a selection of fantastic images, cards and additional limited edition prints. If you have time come along to the village hall at Devoran between 10 and 4. Hopefully see you there as there are a wide collection of artists on show including jewellers, ceramicists, sculptors, potters, print makers and painters.

I am lucky enough to be joining a group of talented artists at our local spring fair in Devoran near Truro on the 18th March. If you are free please come along. It starts at 10.00 and finishes at 4.00. See you there!

Over the past few months I have been working on a submission to the Royal Photographic Society (RPS) to try and acquire a distinction. Thanks to a few friends from the society in the local area I have been putting together a panel of around 15 images. The first part of the process takes part in April and the final submission later in the year. It's not a simple process and the quality of images required is very high. Lets hope this experience improves my photography and continues to take me out of my photographic comfort zone!

Definitely becoming much more popular, this month I was fortunate enough to be featured in Issue 183 of Digital Photographer. There have been a run of magazines articles in the last 6 months and its great to get recognition for some of my art work. Next update on the blog will be the progress I have been making to achieve a distinction with the Royal Photographic Society #RPS and information about taking part in the Cornish open studios at the end of May 2017 #openstudioscornwall

Hot off the press "I am a winner". This month I was lucky enough to be a winner in the Royal Photographic Societies Review of the Year 2016 photographic competition. The name of the photograph is the "Cornish Wave" 

I don't know if many people know but I am a full time photographer living in Cornwall and am part of Truro Camera Club. In 2016 I took part in their Cornish themed competition, which got me thinking about how I could best represent this stunning county.

The area is famous for its fabulous surf and so combining the various images I had captured from all over the area in the form of a wave with a surfer seemed the perfect solution.

Each image was individually processed in Adobe Lightroom and Silver Efex before being contorted into the final image in Photoshop. More of my images can be viewed at paulbnashphotography.com and can be purchased at the website shop.
