012/365v2 Looking Up

You’re always told, in the books and on web sites, to always look behind you as a photographer – I’ve often found some really nice pictures by doing this. Recently I’ve been looking up a lot more as well and have had similar success. We visited a new (to us…it

An Essex Sunset at Aythorpe Roding

011/365v2 An Essex Sunset

At last, a dry day, let me confirm though – trudging around the local fields and footpaths is a muddy experience at the moment but I was so happy to be out and about this afternoon. I visited the windmill at Aythorpe Roding, but, this time, the windmill doesn’t feature

010/365v2 Sockeye Salmon

The 365 this time round really doesn’t feel like its got off the ground just yet. A combination of being mega busy at work and quite dreadful weather has kept me indoors too much. As such I’m limited to table photography much of the time…I have plenty of subjects available

It wasn’t my intention to have 2 of my wife’s products one after the other on the 365, but when I got home tonight she was very pleased with these new luurve bunnies she has created as a Valentines gift that will be sold on www.thecrimsonrabbit.co.uk. Don’t rush there to

008/365v2 Glamour Waves

I have a number of photographic jobs at home – one of which is the relentless pursuit of cat photography and the other is as the official photographer for The Crimson Rabbit (www.thecrimsonrabbit.co.uk). My wife completed another one of her Glamour Waves lines today so I was summoned to break

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

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,
