Face of a Triskelion
2021 - 365 Project

089-365v4 Face of a Triskelion

Why do I leave it so late? Why don’t I learn? This was a real rushed shot (I had taken some product shots for my wife earlier in the day but I’n trying to avoid using those in this 365 project) done just before bed time. Looking at the shots,

Black and White V aka What's the Point?

085-365v4 Black and White V aka What’s The Point?

After a fair amount of mucking about in photoshop I made myself an interesting black and white spiral, which I thought could make an interesting addition to the balck and white unite series. Adding the black and white pencill added a little interest to the image…and also meant it was

Black and White Unite IV.
2021 - 365 Project

072-365v4 Black and White Unite IV

A continuation on the theme…I rather like this one. Some good leading lines and, I hope, some atmosphere. This was done with a long shutter speed and the whole image was lit by a torch with a bit of light painting (which I haven’t done for ages).

070-365v4 Black and White Unite III.

AKA March of the bald heads. I wish I would start making these photographs a little earlier! I left it right to the last minute again, but at least this time I was able to produce images that I was aiming for yesterday. You have 4 to go at –

004-365v4 Half a Cup of Coffee

On my calendar today the task was “Warm Drinks”, but I went off half cocked and only did half a job. I was, of course, being too clever by half. When given half a chance I should have come up with an image that was at least a glass half

The Thames Barrier

I took a walk down to the Thames Barrier with my camera the other week and took this long exposure shot of Number 8, which is the second nearest barrier to the South shore. Featured is the black and white version but you can also see a colour version below.
