A knitted beret
2012 - 366 Project

046/366 Beret

My wife’s been busy again, coming up with this babies beret for a friend of hers. When she produces these items I’m tasked to photograph them for posterity as Debbie keeps very few items, most are made for friends and family. Photographing a beret without a model isn’t the easiest

045/366 Zip Hell

Following on from my post yesterday I thought I’d include an image of the Harrington jacket those badges get attached to. I was doing this and immediately thought of what I should photograph – the zip. It’s the one thing I don’t like about the jacket – it has extra

044/366 Button Badges

Its rainy and miserable outside so I was definitely staying in for today’s photograph, so I had a rummage through my desk draws and found my bag of button badges. I still wear badges, particularly on my Harrington jacket, but I always feeling that I am having a real throw

The Card Cheat

043/366 The Card Cheat

Originally I was trying for a very clever shot of me shuffling the deck of cards…my big problem with that is I’m not much of a shuffler – I’d certainly never make a croupier. So, instead you get this far simpler shot named after the Clash song. “The gambler’s face

Walking in a winter wonderland

042/366 Walking in a Winter Wonderland

We went for a walk today in our favourite woods. Rowney Woods are about 8 miles from where we live in Great Dunmow and we had them to ourselves today. We regularly see deer here – today we only saw their tracks in and out of the woods.

The view out my window over North Street in Great Dunmow
2012 - 366 Project

041/366 Out my window

This is the view we have out of our landing window across North Street in Great Dunmow. It’s a view we don’t see often because we live on a main road so we have net curtains up. You’ll gather it snowed again last night. I had to spend ages removing

The washing machine drum
2012 - 366 Project

040/366 Turbo Wash

I took some jokey self-portraits of me putting washing into the washing machine, I didn’t get the flash right so will have another go later. In the meantime, here’s the inside of the washing machine in black and white (well, it was monochrome already).

039/366 The Knitting Station

There’s a lot going on in my life at the moment and so I’m having to grab a few minutes here and there to make some pictures for my 366 project. I feel I’m losing control of the quality (I’m ignoring the shouts of “What quality” now 😉 ) My

Not Fork Handles - 3 candles
2012 - 366 Project

038/366 Not…Fork Handles…Three Candles

A bit of an experiment today…this is an HDR macro and it’s kind of worked, in that it has given me the effect in the centre flame I was looking for. This is, though, why I have done this 366 project – to force me to try different things. I

Keyring
2012 - 366 Project

037/366 Keyring

This is my wife’s keyring and car key. I tried to take this with my 35mm and got some nice shots using the “M” of Mazda as a kind of pointer, but in the end, out came the macro 105mm and you get this!
