Food and Macro was the challenge for day 90

Well, they are not really macro, but they are food and I (mainly) had fun doing it. Watch out on cucumber 2, I think there is a funny little shape to the bubbles. For the record, tomatoes do not ‘plop’ well. Do have another idea from this one though for a later date. Watch this [...]

Mixed bag for day 89

OK. So I slacked off yesterday. If you don’t care why, just scroll on down and start reading from “So, the images”, otherwise, fill your boots! I wasn’t in the mood to write the post and thought I’d explain a little bit about why. Those who follow me on Twitter might have read that after [...]

Bellis apparently on day 88

I had to go and find the pot this plant came in, just so you know I am not really that hot on my plant names. Despite the rather substantial amount of plant photography in my 365 I am not overly green fingered, but, thankfully, they are all around and great stand-ins for when I [...]

Last of the week of B at day 87

Somewhat loosely based, I have tried to make all of my images fit a ‘B’ alphabet theme this week. Some obvious; Biscuits and Buds, others less straightforward; Blooms and Birds, while the remaining two of Babies (for Lambs) and Barnet (for my new haircut) are pushing the concept a bit. Today I had the suggestions [...]

Hair, gone today, not tomorrow on day 86

Bit of a cheat, quick portrait of me with new haircut. Quite a large step for me as I normally play it pretty safe and only vary hair length by an inch or two. So, if you can’t say anything nice, do as your mother said, and don’t say anything at all! Please be aware, [...]

Budding Photographer on day 85

Took a wander round the garden in a rare moment of peace and decided today’s 365 had to be about the buds coming out everywhere. Too much wind to get a great deal of images, everything being jostled by the continual breeze, but captured a couple that I like.

Bit crumb’y on day 84

I am part of a Flickr group called Alphabet Week, which aims to take an image a week of the ascending letters of the alphabet. Last week I managed an Apple. This week I have managed to theme the whole week around B (loosely), Blooms, Birds and Babies (Lambs). To ensure that my B was [...]

Flirting with photoshop on day 83

I have pretty much tried to stick to out of the camera images for my 365 to date, but today, one of the images I decided to have a little play with. It was a dull day and landscapes were all quite flat, however, I wanted to have a play with this scene. I have [...]

Day 82 was a quick seagull flirtation

Had some time to kill this morning between meetings, so used it to get sand between my toes and see how close I could get to snapping some seagulls. Three images made the cut, here they are. They aren’t going to break any WOW barriers, but it is a start on an area I haven’t [...]

No motivation on day 81

Continuing on from the weekend, had a lovely day with daughter today, son is still being a little toad, but he is definitely sickening for something, so he is forgiven (as always). However, a lovely day, means a very tiring day for me, so was not really motivated to go grab images tonight. Back to [...]
