Photo365 – Day 156 – Observer

My last blog was titled unlucky and the following night I was unlucky…my computer hard drive decide to stop working and went into a loop on boot. As the windows logo appeared I saw a quick flash of that famous blue screen of death and then a reboot.

I back everything up luckily but it’s still a major inconvenience. As a result I’ve not been able to post a blog for three days. But I have been taking my daily photo and today I play catch up from the work PC.

Sunday’s photo365 is a shot from the 40s event at Clumber Park. I’ve called it observer as the gent was watching a couple dance and I caught him from behind. Sadly it was a split second opportunity. As soon as I spotted him I framed up. in preparation for the dancers to come back together. But before they did he was off and the perfect moment was never to happen.

Photo365 – Day 155 – Unlucky

I went out in the centre of Worksop with the Oympus EP2 and 14-42mm zoom to do a bit of street photography. This was my favourite from the short session.
I’ve titled it unlucky for obvious reasons.

Photo365 – Day 154 – skull

I’m not sure why but skulls fascinate me. This one taken this morning on a garden table is of a medium sized bird -probably a blackbird or starling. It was found in a shed.
I used the Pentax K20 and 100mm macro.

Photo365 – Day 153 – Letter Z

The final part of my alphabet series is the letter Z taken in the garden of a spinning washing drier. I looked around for where the best cross over of lines was, and then span it round to an appropriate background.
Taken with the Pentax K5 and 100mm macro lens.

Photo365 – Day 152 – Letter Y

Letter Y is a meat fork and the result of pushing the Pentax K5’s ISO to the limit. Well judging by the result perhaps not the limit at all. This is set at max of ISO25600…yes there is the double nought it’s truly twenty five thousand six hundred ISO. It’s for the alphabet part of my photo365 project and shows how amazing the K5’s low noise is.

Photo365 – Day 151 – Clumber Park Chapel

A quick cycle around Clumber Park provided me with an alternative across the lake view of the chapel. Taken with the Olympus EP2 and 17mm lens. I included the tree branches as foreground interest.
