Self Love
2021 - 365 Project

315-365v4 Self Love

For the most part people are not curious except about themselves.” ― John Steinbeck, The Winter of Our Discontent Continuing playing with the scanner and (hopefully) moving beyond the photocopying your arse on the office photocopier stage! I quite enjoyed exploring the “art” of the selfie on the scanner. I don’t do

314-365v4 – Scanography

I’m still not really in the best photographic frame of mind, but did enjoy this new technique (to me anyway) of producing images. It’s not at all complicated, open up your scanner in a darkened room and scan 3d objects to make an image. I took my three favourite shots

My Penknife

309-365v4 My Penknife

Whilst this isn’t the most exciting image I’ve taken, it has given me some ideas for a more interesting shot. It’s funny how just going through the motions (forcing yourself) of taking a photograph can actually set you thinking about different, far more interesting shots and can help you out

308-365v4 Socket Serpent

I bought a cheap socket set for a very specific purpose, received it and realised it was completely the wrong tool for the job! It’s been sat next to me for months and I finally decided to photograph it yesterday and thought I’d try creating a creepy animal thing out

306-365v4 Heading Into Autumn

I’ve been a day behind publishing these photos all week so today you get two shots for the price of one as a bit of a catch up. We visited Rowney Woods yesterday and had a lovely autumnal walk. I took 11 photographs none of which satisfied me…still, at least

Four Candles / Fork Handles!
2021 - 365 Project

305-365v4 Four Candles

I decided I’d have a go at illustrating the classic Two Ronnies sketch “Four Candles” (which you can see below). Ironically I had completely forgotten that the part of the gag that I’ve illustrated was the misunderstanding that the customer wanted fork handles, not four candles, however, the fork handles

The Twilight Zone

304-365v4 The Twilight Zone – Black and White Unite XXIX

This was quite fun, using the defraction of an image in a water bubble to produce this shot. It only took 102 shots to get that just about central! Should have got the tripod out instead of doing it handheld. There’s a second version below that is a bit more

We spent the day sorting out the garden today and had a trip to the Chapel End Nursery in Broxted where I took this shot inside one of there glasshouses.

302-365v4 House in the Clouds

We’re on holiday this week and did what we often fo on holiday and headed off to Aldeburgh for lunch. This time we decided to visit Thorpeness, just up the coast as we have seen Aldeburgh so many times. Well, we weren’t disappointed, what a wonderful small coastal town. In
