TPA. The photographic angle charity supporting the art of photography
The Photographic Angle holds free exhibitions that travel across the UK transforming vacant spaces into temporary galleries.
The exhibitions show-case contemporary work from students, graduates and enthusiasts of the art of photography giving the public the chance to see current practices from this dynamic field.
For each exhibition, an expert of the art of photography is invited to select a new theme inspired by their own research for which artists can submit work to tour around TPA galleries throughout the UK.
The gallery below shows some of the exhibits at Lakeside, North Harbour, Portsmouth in February 2017.

Brooklands at Weybridge in Surrey was the worlds first purpose built motor racing circuit constructed in 1907 by wealthy landowner Hugh Locke King. The circuit was the birthplace of British Motorsport, the track being 2.75 miles long and was also the location one of Britains first airfields.
The site is now a museum for motorsport and aircraft.

Spitfire and Messerschmitt
The Messerschmitt Bf 109, commonly called the Me 109 (most often by Allied aircrew and even amongst the German aces themselves, even though this was not the official German designation), is a German World War II fighter aircraft designed by Willy Messerschmitt and Robert Lusser during the early to mid-1930s (Wikipedia)
The Supermarine Spitfire is a British single-seat fighter aircraft that was used by the Royal Air Force and many other Allied countries before, during and after the Second World War. The Spitfire was built in many variants, using several wing configurations, and was produced in greater numbers than any other British aircraft. It was also the only British fighter to be in continuous production throughout the war (Wikipedia)

Just spent the the morning setting up my first exhibition in Stubbington Village Library.
How does it look? well why not pop along to the library and see what you think!
Thank you to the staff and the library service for giving me the time and space to show these photographs.

Some time in 2013 just being curious I asked in the library if I could book the exhibition space. After thumbing through the calendar the librarian said certainly, the earliest available spot is June 2016!
So this is the result of over 2 years of waiting and a little bit of planning, mostly in the last few months.
A couple of ‘weather’ releated pictures taken yesterday and today.
After a day of heavy showers on Wednesday the sky started to clear over the Solent in the evening though still with some dark clouds being blown through, the result was not quite the vibrant sunset I had hoped for but the result was still interesting.
I’d glimpsed the field of Linseed last week and thought it would be worth a visit, being in easy cycling distance. However by early afternoon the cloud had set in though the trip was still worthwhile. Make note to visit again!
View from Hill Head across Southampton Water towards Fawley
Using a 35mm lens on a Nikon D7000 as close as it was possible to focus and keeping everything else out of the frame produced this striking image of a tulip against the sky.
Take a step back and this is the completely different view…
The Aerosparx display was a lucky to see event, no advertising or prior notice.
Having tracked the Sport Relief yacht from the Needles I though I had plenty of time to see it from Hillhead. As happens it stayed close to the Isle of Wight, so I made way to Stokes Bay, only just arriving in time to catch it sailing past Ryde! It must have been doing about 30 knots.
The Blue Tit was a bit more planned. There has been a bit of interest in the nesting box this year, this one perching on the cane before taking a closer look at the nest box. All I had to do was wait for him/her to turn up.

Sunrise from the Meon Shore, freezing cold but looked promising at first but what little colour was in the sky was soon covered by cloud so the sun didn’t appear until sometime after actual sunrise time. Still, never mind at least it was shown on the BBC main weather and on South Today.
