Unfurling Spring
2014 - 365 Project

065/365v2 Unfurling Spring

So I’m assuming (and I didn’t do the planting, just the earth moving) that we didn’t plant any daffodils as this is the first bulb to poke it’s head out this spring and it is, of course, a crocus. Along with that I’ve seen daffodils all over the town so

064/365v2 Doing Lines with Zach Arias

One of the big issues people tend to have when doing a 365 project is coming up with new things to photograph. So when one of your favourite photographers comes up with a new web site and starts giving you monthly assignments…all for free…well, you’ve got to take part. So

063/365v2 Doctors Pond

I had to pop out to the Post Office this morning and it was such a beautiful morning that I grabbed a few shots of Doctors Pond on my way back. This is a 3 shot HDR taken on my Sony NEX7 and processed using photomatix, lightroom, photoshop, with a

062/365 Down on the Beach

Not all is quite as it seems in this shot of shells found on the beach at Walton on the Naze. The shot was taken in our spare bedroom and lit with a small torch. The shells are genuinely from Walton On The Naze, the pebbles, well actually they came

061/365v2 The Stamen

The Lily & its stamen makes a second appearance of the weekend! I felt this was a different enough image to make it worth while showing. A far softer image than the previous image. The lilies flower had only just opened so the stamen hadn’t yet opened up. My wife was

This Lily definitely looks like it’s about to spit out some poison in a Day of the Triffids style!

058/365v2 Cherry and Cream

I’m trying all sorts of different shots at the moment…I could really do with getting some light stands and brackets and clamps and modifiers – the spoon here for example, is taped to a box to hold it in place whilst I poured cream onto the cherry whilst clicking away

056/365v2 With a Cherry On Top

Had a good, if late, end to the day today. We had the final round of our Digital Image competition at Stortford Camera Club. I was 4 points behind in joint second at the start of the evening but managed to close the gap and came joint first for the
