I hope this year has treated you well. This has basically been the businesses first year and what a year it was. From a slow start to prints being presented to HRH The Prince of Wales in the Summer. I very much enjoyed taking Edward Wilson Photography to the people with my stalls. If you were at The Clay Pigeon shoots, Polo or the others it was a pleasure to meet you and discuss my work.

I hope next year will be even better and I can grow the business even further. I wish you a brilliant and prosperous New Year!

I would just like to wish everyone a Happy Christmas. Hope you all have a great time with your friends and family and you get all the presents you want. And don’t forget, try not to throttle any family members until at least Boxing Day!

I have added three new galleries to the site. They include Abstract, Architecture and Graphic Art. Its all a part of making the site easier to use and help people find the types of photos they are looking for. Its also a sign of the new areas of Photography that I want to explore further.

Abstract:

At the moment the Abstract gallery consists of images from Over Haddon in England.

Architecture:

To launch the new Architecture section I have uploaded new photos, which were taken in Belfast City centre. Read more

A new website has been launched. Seeking advice from web designers I have created a website to showcase my photography without distracting the user by other elements. The photos take pride of place now. The size of the photo thumbnails has been increased and the layout is much simpler, which makes the website easier to use. Hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think.

As of 23th October 2009 6 of my framed prints have been hanging in Café Nosh, Dundonald, Belfast, Northern Ireland. Feel free to make a visit and have a look. All are available to purchase immediately.

I was in England from 15th – 29th September. I stayed in Derbyshire but travelled around the surrounding area too. It was a very enjoyable trip, much fine dining was done. Took photos for several new galleries that will be published in the coming months.

I have included some phone photos here to show you what I got up to. None of the photos are from the areas that I used for galleries. They will remain Top Secret until published!

These photos show some of the Derwent Valley (Home to the Derwent Valley Mills) and beyond. The Derwent gave birth to the Worlds first ever factory and is a World heritage site for that reason. My photos show a later factory built on the first factory’s site, plus the original remains. And some other places I visited like the village of Eyam that chose to isolate itself when the Plague was discovered there in August 1665 (A long time ago), rather than let the infection spread. I also met a friendly cat there. And Kedleston Hall where the film The Duchess was filmed with Keira Knightley.

On 10/09/09 Edward Wilson photography sponsored Keith Gordon at the 2009 kickathon event held at the Clarawood Tenant Hall in East Belfast. He was sponsored to do a fixed number of kicks in an allotted amount of time, which I’m glad to say he passed. It was a fun night out and it raised a good bit of money for the club. Many thanks to the Master for allowing me to invade their event. Hope you enjoy the photos!

Last week I added the Lancashire gallery. A set of 26 photos from one of the most beautiful parts of England. The photos were taken in the Forest of Bowland, which offers stunning locations for landscape photography. Although the gallery has just been added the photos were actually taken in the winter of 2007.

Bellow is a small selection from the gallery:
