Photo365 – Day 177 – Clover
I spent a lazy day today sunbathing and it must have not only frazzled my skin but also my brain, because i couldn’t remember whether I’d used a photo of clover in my photo365. I’d certainly spent one session photographing it…but…
Photo365 – Day 176 – Mirrors
I had six bathroom mirror tiles and made a box to create an infinite mirror effect. I tried various techniques to get interesting shots and struggled, but when I’d finished I decided to place four on the floor and shoot the clouds. This is one of…
Photo365 – Day 175 – wheat
Wheat growing on a path near the Worskop canal. I took a variety of shots on my evening walk tonight and had difficulty choosing between a dead floating water rat, surrounded by McDonalds wrappers and containers, a low shot of my shoes with the path…
Photo365 – Day 174 – raindrops
Raindrops on the poppy petals today. I’ll soon have exhausted the poppy patch by which time the petals will have all fallen off. Next I’m looking forward to a shot of the skeleton poppy head. That’s a few weeks away.
Photo365 – Day 173 – poppy bulb

Photo365 – Day 170 – reel
I cycled round Clumber Park this afternoon a 30km route, and on the way stopped off at one of my favourite woodland scenes to take this. The reel has been there for about five years and is starting to rot away nicely. It’s surrounded by silver…
Photo365 – Day 169 – Helmet
A reproduction divers helmet I’ve been meaning to photograph for ages. I placed the studio light inside and used the modelling light as illumination. Then I added a self portrait behind the glass in Photoshop The photo is taken with a Pentax k5 and…
Photo365 – Day 168 – poppy drops
I’m making the most of the poppy explosion in the garden, and the rain with this shot. A poppy petal fell off, so I placed it on the garden table and framed up tightly using the 100mm macro on a Pentax K5.
