Daniel Aston at Golowan Festival Tongue Pie

Young photographer, Daniel Aston, is holding his second photographic exhibition, this time at Perranuthnoe Village Crafts. Last year saw the success of his first exhibition which was held at the Hayloft Ristorante near Liskeard. Daniel is still only fifteen and is a pupil at Humphry Davy School. He won a trophy for winning first, second and third prizes in his category at the Horticultural Show held at St Hilary School. |
Daniel is a keen writer and musician and is aiming to become a photo-journalist. He is inspired to take photos of the Cornish landscape and the wildlife which surrounds the area.
"I have been taking photos for just over 2 years since I got my first Fujifilm camera for my thirteenth birthday. Since then I have won both first, second and third prizes at the St Hilary and Goldsithney photography competition. The photos I have been taking were all taken using that camera, which proves that you don’t need an expensive camera to take good pictures. I enjoy taking shots of the coastline and experimenting with the macro settings whenever I get the chance, sometimes ending with stunning images like the shot of the sea anemone and the froth of a receding wave.
My photos capture a variety of spectacular colours and images ranging from close ups of flowers and insects to crashing waves and ocean sunsets that I take all around Cornwall. I live in Goldsithney, a small village just outside Penzance. Every weekend I visit locations around Cornwall armed with my trusty digital camera to capture the essence of the landscape. The main aspect of photography that inspires me is the ability to capture a moment in time. I particularly like photographing waves and seafronts where the landscape is forever changing in colour and movement. To capture a wave as it crashes amongst the desolate rocks is what I have tried to do in a couple of my pictures that you can see at the exhibition". Daniel Aston
