Flowers and Stone

040-365v2 – Stone and Flower

Today’s photograph is of some artificial flowers in a black vase. The background was then made up of 3 images I have of various textures to make what looks like a stone wall in the background. I go to all these lengths because I wasn’t entirely convinced by the original

039-365v5 – Abstract Squeak

I always enjoy a bit of abstraction and it is always a useful fall back for the 365 project when time is short and you need a shot. You can see a few of my abstract photographs by clicking here. This is an item found on many desks around the

Holm Hardware

038-365v5 – Out of Business

Nowhere is safe from the empty shops of the internet boom, especially small villages like Newcastleton. The local hardware shop closed a little over a year ago (before we moved here) which is a shame as the village only has a small handful of shops available. I shouldn’t complain really

Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) of a cold and foggy walk
2025 - 365 Project

037-365v5 – A Misty Morning Walk

Something I’ve never had a lot of success with before – Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) from the early morning Jess walk. It was a cold and foggy morning and there was some lovely light around which I photographed but, unusually, it was this ICM shot that I really liked. This

United Airlines Fly Past in Black & White
2025 - 365 Project

035-365v5 – Fly Past

We don’t often get planes overhead here (very different from where we used to live when we were only 8 miles from Stansted Airport). This United Airlines plane caught my eye as it was heading straight in front of the rising moon. I rushed to get my camera to catch

034-365v5 – Rooting Around

Today has been a day of rummaging through boxes to find my old camera strap. The strap continues to be missing but I have found lots of other old bits and pieces in my search for it including my old LED lights that I used in my last 365 project

033-365v5 Blue

This weeks 52frames project is “Blue”. You may recall Monday’s shot of water defraction which was in response to this and I did a separate shot with an orange half (the theme had a side challenge of “contrasting colour” and orange is directly opposite blue on the colour wheel). You

032-365v5 An Abstract Landscape

This is a fairly abstract shot of the distant hills with the sky above, it was a lovely morning for a walk if a little chilly Despite being in and amongst a lot of commercial forestry there are still areas that are basically either grassland or scrubland, it’s hard to
