007/365v2 The Mint with the Hole In It

Tuesday’s are always tricky for the daily photograph, especially at this time of year, get up in the dark, drive to work in  the driving rain, try to pop out at lunchtime, but its chucking it down, drive home in the dark and then go to camera club in the

006/365v2 Egg Bound

It is often the way that the simple shots are the hardest to take. Indeed I had to faff about with this a fair amount in photoshop to get it someway close to where I wanted it. Of course, as usually happens, I had to rush the shooting of this

005/365v2 A Wet Winter in Rowney

It’s a sod is Facebook – you’re all ready to add a post to your blog and all hell kicks off…(you get into a long winded conversation about what is right and wrong in journalistic photography…it’s a minefield I tell you!) Today we have just about the only decent shot

2014 - 365 Project

004/365v2 Star Lane, Great Dunmow

I popped out this morning to go to the bakers and went the long way round through Doctors Pond and then up into the town via Star Lane. I took this shot as a fall back as I had an idea about a table top shot I wanted to take.

003/365v2 The Trouble with Analogue

When you removed your tape from the machine and it looked like this you knew there was trouble in Hitsville. If the cassette hadn’t already failed it was certainly on its way out…and this tends to be the issue with many analogue things that we all reminisce about…forgetting that, actually,

002/365v2 Noisy Window

Along with, I suspect, many other people, I do have some really irritating problems with my computer. Today the card reader stopped working…for 4 or 5 hours…and then, for no good reason (apart from me swearing at it periodically) it started working again…why? I find this image quite fascinating. It’s

Sunrise on New Years Day over Doctors Pond, Great Dunmow

001/365v2 Sunrise over Doctors Pond – New Years Day 2014

I haven’t been up this early in the morning on New Years Day for probably about 35 years! I’m clearly getting older 🙁 So, this years 365 project gets off to an early start…when I stepped out of the house I was greeted with pretty flat grey skies…then the (very

2013 - 52 Week Project

52/52 Christmas Cat!

Nearly forgot to publish the last in the 52 week series? It’s been an odd week photographically as I really haven’t wanted to photograph anything in case it removes subjects from the forthcoming 365 project I’m starting on New Years Day so I haven’t taken the volume of photographs I

After the shoot
2013 - 52 Week Project

51/52 After the shoot

I was considering holding onto these as “emergency” subjects for my forthcoming second 365 project. If I’m honest I knew pretty early on this year that I had made a mistake stopping my daily photography once I had completed my 366 project at the end of last year. To be

50/52 This Way Up

Continuing the black and white theme, but due to equipment issues, not the long exposure work…which was irritating! This is a photograph of a new office building called the Leadenhall Building being built next to St Helen’s…somewhere I used to work in a past life!
