Jason, you actually don't need the "/photos" in the flickr URL, having it be flickr.com/jasonbrown2013 works as well
 
Dat watermark. Maybe tone that down a little, haha.

Was only a 'one off occasion' for those particular photos. I don't plan to use it again.

I don't like watermarking my photos but for various reasons those particular ones needed to be watermarked.

Too late to change it now - photos have already been sent to client. But I think it looks fine...
 
Went to a 'Secret Nuclear Bunker' in Kelvedon Hatch, Essex, today. Was kind of funny seeing these brown tourist signs near the bunker with 'Secret Nuclear Bunker' written on them, but I am easily amused. ;)

I remember Top Gear did a feature about stupid road signs a few years ago and one of these 'Secret Nuclear Bunker' signs featured on it. Finally seen a few! Yay! :D




Anyway, here are some photos. Yes, they're a bit grainy because they were shot at ISO 3200 (low light in the bunker) and I didn't do any noise reduction on them because I think the grainy B&W shots suit this location perfectly. I added some sharpening to a few of them to increase the grain...

Is it a place you pay to visit or is just somewhere you go freely?
 
We should just rename this thread "Spirit's picture thread" :P
Haha, I seem to post a lot of my stuff here. I still have the time to get out and shoot. ;) Got a very busy May and June coming up but from end of the June to early September I shall be freer again. :P

There was a small fee and £5 to take photos (which you have to pay) but it's worth paying. Interesting place. :)

Took about 2 hours to get there though and was only there about an hour, so I probably wouldn't recommend travelling too far in order to visit.

Oh you were limited in time?

I sometimes visit caves where you usually have guides so basically you are limited in time, but if you visit them other than on vacation times they usually ask if you want a guide which I usually answer no so I can get as much pictures as I want and stay in that cave as long as I want.
 
You can spend as much time as you want in the bunker, so you're not time limited at all. However, we had walked around the whole thing in an hour and the electronic tour was quite long and tedious so we kept skipping bits. I think if you listened to the whole electronic tour you would have been around the whole thing in maybe an hour and a half or 2 hours.

And a 4 hour round trip to get there and back did kind of limit *us* a little, but if you live locally and the time it takes to get there is little then you could spend as long as you want.

You could take as many pictures as you wanted but you had to pay, which was a little odd. Never been to any museum before where they have made you pay to take photos. Usually they either welcome you taking photos or they just say you can't.

But all in all it was an interesting place! If you're in Essex, it's worth visiting! :)
 
Thought I would post some of my recent portraiture work and some other recent photos. The last three was shot using film.

I'm not the best photographer and all I have is a cheap digital camera. I did own a couple SLR 35 mm cameras back in circa 2002 that took some good photos, but I'm too lazy at the moment to scan them.
