Photo365 – Day 196 – Etheria 2011
I was at Redhouse in Sheffield last night for the Etheria 2011 – a gig billed as deliciously Dark Acoustic. I went primarily to see the headline act seiben but enjoyed seven acts including (in order of appearance) Diz Carberry – acoustic…
Photo365 – Day 195 – Violet
The last of my mini rainbow series is a storage box lid with some strands from a place-mat arrange in a symbol style. It’s minimal but fit my brief. It’s part of my photo365 project. Taken with a Pentax K5 and 16-45mm lens.
Photo365 – Day 194 – Indigo
A vase which was as near to indigo as I could find, although the definition of indigo does vary wildly on the internet from a rich blue to a radiant purple. Is this your definition of indigo? It’s an indigo subject to fit my rainbow theme…
Photo365 – Day 193 – the gardener
Well hardly but I enjoyed getting the shot. The camera Olympus EP2 with fish eye adaptor was placed on the soil pointing up with the timer set for 12 seconds. The exposure was set to plus 3 stops to ensure I came out exposed correctly with the…
Photo365 – Day 192 – diesel goes mousing
A shot of the expert mouser on the case, shot from a mouse eye view. He sniffed out the hole and was pawing away to catch his prey. I was trialling the new Olympus Pen fisheye converter on the 14-42mm MkII I had to shoot at high ISO4000 to stop the…
Photo365 – Day 191 – shaving
This picture is dedicated to one of the true genius of ePHOTOzine – Warb. He did a version of this back in 2005 called Sunday Shave and I gave it an EC. I decided to recreate it. I don’t think I’ve done as well, but I’m pleased…
Photo365 – Day 190 – trainers
I went out on a cycling to Clumber this afternoon with the purpose of playing with the Photosynth app of the iPhone. I took a detour from the normal track through a more dense woodland area. It was quiet and quite spooky, especially when I came to these…
Photo365 – Day 189 – blue soap
Part five of my seven part rainbow series within my photo365 project brings me to the colour blue. A bar of blue soap on a blue towel taken with the Pentax K5 and 16-45mm zoom. The illumination is a ringlight which gives a soft shadow around the subject.
Photo365 – Day 188 – green
Part four of my rainbow theme within the photo365 project is Green. You can’t fail with nature. Here’s the bud of a flower still looking green against a background of leaves. It’s taken with the Pentax K5 and 100mm macro lens.
Photo365 – Day 187 – natural filter
On what will probably be my next to last poppy shot I decided to position the camera so that a poppy head was filtered by a foreground poppy petal. The long lens (500mm Tamron) has thrown the front petal totally out of focus resulting in a colour cast…
