Photo365 – Day 332 – scrapyard

I was trying to get that view you see when you pass a car scrap yard where they stack the broken cars upright.

Three jelly bear sweets placed on my iPad on an ePHOTOzine page with white space, and photographed with the iPhone and new Hipstamatic lens/film combination.

Photo365 – Day 330 – face at bowling

I haven’t been bowling for ages, and it showed. Possibly my lowest score ever at just 102!

I thought this bowling ball look a bit like a face, so placed it on the rack at an angle to show of its best side.

Hipstamatic (trying out new lens and film I’ve downloads) on iPhone

Photo365 – Day 329 – a shaft of light

I woke up this morning to see sunlight finding its way though a window, and then out through a door onto another door. One of the good things about winter is that the sun is low and the bright sunlight always slips through the cracks. A simple shot on the iPhone / Hipstamatic showing where it landed.

The pattern from the reflection of the door handle hasn’t picked up which is a shame as that added extra sparkle

As I went to rephotograph it the sun had changed position and the moment was gone

Photo365 – Day 328 – the diver

I have a 2x tele lens to review and this was the first photo I took with it to illustrate the difference between this lens and the perspective of the same shot using just the iPhone.
It’s a small glass diver ornament with a US navy diver helmet as its background.

Photo365 – Day 327 – Worksop Cinema Phase 7

Those who’ve been following my blog will be aware that I’ve been documenting the building of Worksop’s new cinema. I went a few weeks ago and little change had taken place since phase 6 so I didn’t post my photo. Then I had a week away.

So this morning before work, now the nights are drawing in, I visited the scene to find fencing has been put up preventing me from standing in the same spot! Doh…I couldn’t have predicted that. Now I cannot complete my timelapse. Here’s a view from the other side of the pillar I used as a reference point.

I need to choose a new spot to finish the series. So I moved across the road and will do a front view, which actually looks better but it’s a busy road so there’s usually cars parked or passing.

Photo365 – Day 325 – green and red and blue

I got an iPhone Microscope in for review, so here’s a shot with it…an abstract pattern at x60…can you tell what it is?

Photo365 – Day 324 – jelly bean

This is a single jelly bean shot with the Olympus EP2 and toy lens with +10 macro adaptor on the front. The focus point is never centre and the blur, aberrations, vignetting and weird focus points make the shots a little odd, but I like the effects. The jelly bean was on the carpet and I shot with the lens resting on the floor for support. I focus by moving the camera in and out until I get the right parts sharp.

Photo365 – Day 323 – airplane wing

Taken today through the window of the plane on the flight home from Gran Canaria – after spending a week in gorgeous 23-27degree heat and sun. iPhone and hipstamatic.
