A shot of Smeaton’s Tower taken on my recent trip to England. Such great memories of Plymouth!! The Hoe is realy something, with fantastic views out accross Plymouth Sound and Drake’s Island. Really Worth a visit if you are in Devon or travelling further South West to Cornwall.

Thanks for taking a look,

Mike Hope

Mike Hope’s Photo Web Has a New Look!

Hi everyone,

I have just finished saving a new look for my 500px photo site and thought you might like to take a look. I think it has a much raunchier look to it and I particularly like the background effects that come on from random photos. Let me know what you think and thanks for stopping by…

This old coke can keeps coming back on me, so I took it back into lightroom and reworked it a little in black and white. Now I think it has a little more depth…maybe!! what do you think??

Vivien Maier – The Legend That Never Was

Hi All,

I was just checking through some interesting articles on Street Photography when I came across a piece in the MessyNessy blog about a lady photographer

from Chicago that died recently at the age of 83 years. She apparantly was very private and never shown her photographs to anyone outside her family.  Luckily the negatives came up at an auction and were bought by an historical hobbyist, John Maloof. Well the results speak for themselves and the lady, Vivien Maier, is a street photography legend. You can find out more and check some of Vivien Maier’s great work on Messy Nessy’s blog

Vivien Maiers Photographs – The Legend That Never Was

There is now a fascinating documentary Finding Vivien Maier you can check out the official trailer on YouTube

Finding Vivien Maier – official Trailer

I am sure you will aggree this is fascinating stuff. The quality of the photographs are phenomenal!! Makes you long for the days when RollieFlex ruled and black and white was recording history (still in manufacture by the way)

I was just inspired by another blog, Jean’s Photography, as there was a picture of a later Scrabble Board that I was admiring. I remebered this shot I took at the Ojai Resort and Spa of an old scrabble board they had on display. So I thought I would post it again. Hope you like it!!

Boardwalk Redondo – Mike Hope

Lou E Luey’s on the Boardwalk, Redondo Beach. This was the old banquet hall. Now closed. Took this last weekend with the Fujifilm X20 and post grunge HDR effect. UPDATE: Sold the Fuji X-20 for Canon EOS-M really like it! Interchangeable lenses and now faster with the firmware update. I am eyeing the Fujifilm XM-1 though as you can see from my last post
