About me   About the site
My name is Graham Jeffery, and I live in the small market town of Hinckley in Leicestershire, England.





Photography
Photography is my hobby, and I keep trying to improve my technique, develop a more artistic eye, in short, take better pictures.

My main interests are nature photography and portraiture.

With a paticular love of woodland I keep trying to capture the spirit of the woods on camera. Recently I have been dabbling with impressionist techniques to bring out the beauty of my morning walks in the woods.

Macro photography is fun, though it tends to be limited to pictures of insects taken in the garden.

The local country park has a number of interesting water birds so I have started building collections of different birds, the Herons are my favourites.

Portraiture is of special interest both in the shooting and post processing phase.

  This is the new version of Sensitive Light, it has been online since September 2009 and I am still tweaking.

The Old Site is still available but it is no longer being maintained, I have started to migrate some of the better pictures across, but it will be a long time until that little job is finished.
