1:52 Red

This will be my last macro for a while. The autofocus has stopped working so the lens is going in for repair.

8:52 Try to see geometrically

I don't photograph buildings much but this week's theme inspired me to seek some hard edges. This is a busy food hall in Singapore's financial district - so many really good food options and a cool looking building.

47/52 Pick one place and don’t move from it for one hour making as many beautiful images as you can from that one point of view.

I didn't think I'd have time to do this challenge but a perfect hoar frost prompted me to delay pre-vacation chores for an hour to zip to a local park and marvel at the sights. It was a bit cold to stay in exactly the one spot but I tried :)

How accommodating of these guys to move in just in time for this theme. I think there are 7 in total though I’ve only seen 4 together.

For 2018 52 Week Theme

33:52 Every day item: Turn something that you would normally walk right by into a work of art

I see these pigeons everyday either on my way to work or in and around the shore. This light and electrical wire is so ugly and the birds find it to be a good perch. But I often wonder/wish if we didn't have any more wires, buildings, concrete etc, wouldn't there be more birds? And better places for them to perch?

Happy Sunday! Thanks for Visiting.

43:52 Boo - scare me.

Happy Halloween!

A scene from our drive up to a misty Mt Hotham today.

34:52 - Choose your favourite poem and try to represent a line of it visually.

I don't have a favourite poem, but as I have written a lot of poetry, I thought I would use one of mine.

words are difficult

things to swallow

transparent

huge

and choking…

I can think

into the air

but the communication wires

shake with electricity

and break…

I can feel

and you might grasp

halfway

what my lips

are trying to say

but can’t…

I can speak

but my tongue

confuses things extremely

unruly creature!

and you turn

in embarrassment

at something that should have

reached you…

I can touch

in hope

that inner reachings

might become attached…

because

words are difficult

things to swallow…

3:52 purple

Nothing purple to be found round here so I’m hitting the archives. This clematis survived Dan mowing it down twice and here it’s surviving a drowning.

12:52 Make a colour photograph of a scene that has no (or very little) colour. Think monochromatic.

12:52 The painter Bonnard said "Make little lies to tell great truths".

Use that as your inspiration.

#44: The weekly challenge - Black and white landscape

#80 in my 100 x challenge - photos from my travels

Cape Otway Lighthouse is the oldest surviving lighthouse on mainland Australia. We visited whilst staying in Apollo Bay. I may have overdone the processing a bit with the strong dramatic look...too much?

Since it has a fence in it's also for Fence Friday. HFF and wishing you all a fabulous weekend.

Struggling for time this week so back to the archives where I found a bunch of triangles. Moraine Lake, Banff National Park.

8:52. Amuse yourself, however you want...

The 52 week challenge - Take a natural scene and distill it down into its fundamental components to make the simplest and strongest statement.

For this theme, once again, I have re-edited a photo I took a couple of weeks ago in Salcey Forest, Northamptonshire. The leaves hadn't changed then so I have given them a little 'help'. Sorry but this is the only way I can stay in the challenge at the moment.

27:52 national pride

Though we’ll be proud Canadian citizens soon I’ll always be a Braveheart on the quiet 😊

This whole area is the magma chamber of an extinct volcano, the top scoured off during the ice age. 30 miles of single track roads with lots of tourists used to driving on the right. Which is wrong.

aimed for a traditional railroad track landscape, with the additional constraint of being straight out of camera

Landscape: Traditional Landscape - Shoot a beautiful landscape and share it with the world. Find a nice foreground and don't forget the sky.

&

Technical: SOOC - Straight out of the Camera. No Photoshop. Shoot a compelling image and post it without edits. No cheating! (Be sure and save the image file for the end of the challenge!)

49:52 Zoomed in

I may have misunderstood this theme - here I used my telefoto to zoom in on some cows, tiny on the vast horizon. Hoping to catch up on your streams during airport time on my last work trip of the year.

I was looking through the archives for a monochrome image for a camera club competition when I came across this one which I converted to mono and preferred it to the colour version. I'm pleased to say it did very well in the competition.

I am using this for the weekly/monthly challenge - Reflections and since it had a fair bit of sliding HSS

I'm still not spending much time on Flickr so apologies for the lack of comments. I will catch up a bit now but may only get a chance to see your most recent images.
