Hello! What brought you here? Hopefully it wasn't an accident, and even if it was, don't go just yet. Welcome to the world of Walitron! Won't you join me on this journey of mine? See it, shoot it, share it (with some editing in between). instagram: @walitron email: [email protected]

So, I went on a walk with 500px and they brought along a model. I haven't shot with a model before, well apart from Akbar who is a good friend of mine, but that doesn't count. I have a lot to learn but had a go at editing these. Early days, but I will get there.

Aldwych Station. These are some shots taken at the unused Aldwych. They aren't the best pictures I have taken but practice makes perfect.

Illusions for thesoots. Great top. Go get yourself one.

Hungry anyone? These are a few shots taken at the Downtown Grill in Ilford. The food is as good as it looks.

Portraits and Headshots. This was a shoot I did for an aspiring actor called Basil Stevenson. I had a great time shooting and got some fantastic results.

So it has beeen ages since I posted. I have been busy. This is a double exposure I did after gainin inspiration from Reshkay who is an artist on instagram.

London in the palm of my hand. So, I have gone double exposure crazy and have spent an afternoon experimenting with double exposures.

the1harris at sunset. A double exposure of Richard AKA the1harris mixed with the sunset from The Shard. It has been a while since I have really been happy with a picture. This is something I am very pleased with and it has given me the drive I was looking for. A big thank you to Richard and @brewsker (IG) who organised the meet.

Some shots taken without a filter.

So I went to another BMW car meet this weekend. I have done a few images that I added some filters to so that I could see the results.

Brixton!!! So, street photography is something I find difficult. My good friend Akbar suggested we go to a 'Brixton Swag' shoot, which we found on meetup.com, a great website with loads of meet ups going on every week. It was a good day, I didn't take many pictures, mainly because I didn't find people very co operative or even receptive to us taking pictures (there was 11 of us in total). We all walked around in smaller groups and did a few laps. I learnt a few things about street photography from the guys that were there that helped me. • never make eye contact • don't spend too long standing around, keep moving • be polite • don't be afraid to ask people if you can take their picture. Some will say no, and depending where you are, some will also give you a story or a rant to go with it. Smile, nod, walk away. It may be worthwhile noting after a while of being around in the same area, we did get the attention of the security guards, something that has happened to me in the past (was thrown out of Westfield Stratford). A good day nonetheless.

The drifting collection from the BMW meet. There is a GTR there also.

Another Modified BMW car meet. Practice makes perfect. This took place in the evening so I got some night shots in also. These are mainly the static shots.

Parkour and views of London at the Sky Garden. An event organised by the London IG page (Dave Burt) and @CanonUK (IG). It was a great day and I got to try out some really cool lenses before we went for a walk through London to St James' Park.

Another meet for the Modified BMW Owners Club. This time at the graffiti wall in Chelmsford.

My latest shoot for thesoots clothing co. This is of their 'Visit Palestine' T Shirt, one of my favourites. The designs just get better and better. I tried a number of different shots and edits for this shoot.

Day out at London Zoo!
