October 2006 |
|
| A quick winter sun staying on the island of Menorca. Ken got some great images on his first ever trip to this biosphere island. | |
End of May 2006 |
|
| Off again to the Outer Hebrides. This trip has been on the back burner for a long time. Ken achieved some great nature images and landscapes and has just written an article for the Practical motor home which he hopes will be published in 2007. | |
Early May 2006 |
|
| Off in the motor home wild camping with his friend Robert. The highlight of the week was a trip to Fingals Cave and Lunga for the Puffins. Ken has just had his first article on Mull for the Practical Motorhome published in the December issue. | |
January 2006 |
|
| In January Ken captured an image of the Liverpool waterfront that he has been after for many years. It inspired him so much that he went on to do a whole new collection of images of Liverpool, which took him 7 months to achieve. | |
Things to Look Forward to in 2006 |
|
| Ken hopes to go back to Wild shots early next
year. Always great people to work with, Peter and Mark. Possibly
a trip to Mull and the Outer Hebridean Islands in his new motor
home. Spring, he hopes to go back with landscape photographer Robert Devenish, to the Vanoise National Nature Reserve in the French Alps for Alpine snow pictures and fauna and flora. |
|
December 2005 |
|
| December saw Ken and Eileen purchasing a new motor home. This will allow Ken to be more flexible when looking for new photo opportunities and also help to keep costs to a minimum. | |
November 2005 |
|
| November, off to Spain again for a short break in the enigmatic city of Barcelona. Lots of illustrative shots for magazine articles and stock photography. Penciled in again for next year. | |
October 2005 |
|
| October saw Ken off on his annual autumn color trip to the Lakes again in his 4X4 and caravan. Lots of pictorial images this time with the light changing all the time, well worth the time spent there. | |
June 2005 |
|
| June saw Ken's beautiful daughter, Allyson, married in Pathos, Cyprus. Ken may have lost his daughter to Craig Pryce, but he gained a fly fishing friend for life. We are so proud of them both. | |
May 2005 |
|
| May saw Ken off to the Alpujarra, Andalusia, Spain.
Ken stayed in a traditional Moorish farmhouse, at 3500 feet, surrounded
by almond groves as far as the eye could see. He found this large
area full of illustrative images, which will be used to illustrate
an article for the Spanish Magazine, Alamy etc. End of May saw him off again to the Lake District, some nice landscapes achieved on this trip. |
|
2005 |
|
| Ken was given a commission to photograph his local village, Port Sunlight, for The Lady Lever Art Gallery. He got some great commercial images which have been used since for cards and calendars. | |
November 2004 |
|
| NEW! - Available now - A selection of Provençal Limited Edition Photographic Prints on stretchers for sale at various sizes. Click here for more info. | |
October 2004 |
|
| This year, for the first time, images are being supplied to www.alamy.com photographic library as well as www.images-of-france.com. | |
September 2004 |
|
| New location in Cheshire photographing fallow deer rutting - a fascinating thing to see, let alone photographing these enigmatic mammals. | |
July 2004 |
|
| Off in the caravan to Looe, Cornwall to do some stock photography for Alamy. The Eden Project was a great photographic opportunity and some of the fishing villages such as Fowey and Mevagissey were great for stock pictures. | |
May 2004 |
|
| Off again - "its' tough" - to the Queyras Regional Park in France. Lots of snow pictures and floral images, with a helping of pictorial landscapes for good measure. | |
December 2003 |
|
| Off to Paris to shoot Paris at Christmas for Images Of France. It was cold but gorgeous lighting prevailed on this trip - a great photographic opportunity. I will return. | |
October 2003 |
|
| October found Kenneth off to the Highlands care of Virgin Trains to Kingussie, Scotland, to work with Mark Hamblin and Pete Cairns on British Owls, in controlled conditions. This turned out to be an excellent photographic shoot. Kenneth has pencilled in a return trip in the spring of 2004 to do British raptors. | |
July 2003 |
|
| The highlight of his photographic year was the
grand tour of the Mercantour National Park, in the South of France.
Days of wall to wall nature photography. On Kenneth's wish list was to capture a shot of an ibex. This was achieved in the valley of the Madonna de Fenestre. This year he was also shooting for images-of-france.com, a photographic library in London. All the photographic work was of a reportage style and all images were taken with the D30 digital camera.

March 2003 |
|
| March and April this year saw Kenneth working in one of his favourite locations, Landican Cemetery, just 10 minutes from his home. Lots of new hare pictures, but none boxing this year. | |
January 2003 |
|
| The New Year and winter is a good time to photograph at Formby, owned by the National Trust. The squirrels at this time of year are in winter coats and with long ear tufts make a lovely subject to photograph. This year was no exception. | |
November 2002 |
|
| Kenneth was working on obtaining more fungi images at Ainsdale, the English Nature Reserve, always a good place in the autumn for fungi. | |
October 2002 |
|
| September and October: the Tour to the West coast of Scotland was a great success, using Sheild Bridge as a base with a number sorties on to Skye. Red Stags, Common seals, Lots of Gray Herons and shore birds, plus some stunning Landscapes. The British weather let us down again but that's just normal. 'I could live there', said Ken. | |
July 2002 |
|
| Kenneth is preoccupied arranging a 4x4 and caravan for a tour of the Scottish Highlands in September - British weather is a pain. | |
June 2002 |
|
| Off again (life is difficult!). This time on a tour of the French National Parks, starting with the Ecrins and several others with Landscape Photographer Robert Devenish (our guide for the two weeks). Lots of flora and some fauna and with great landscape as a bonus. Kenneth's lack of altitude fitness was put to the test (and failed!). It was also very hot and sunny... a return journey is pencilled in for 2003 | |
May 2002 |
|
| Kenneth left for a two week tour of Lesvos, resulting in some superb images of Bee-eaters displaying on territory, also a great shot of a Great Reed Warbler singing also on territory. Lesvos is a wonderful island and the native people are very welcoming. | |
April 2002 |
|
| Spring saw Kenneth Edward Lewis working on the River Conway at a nest site of Dippers and Gray Wagtails. The shoot produced a nice picture of a Dipper with larva in it's beak. It was a difficult shoot because of the low lighting, and use of flash was unsuitable. |
