This is the shelf on my desk - right above my computer screen. Lit by two little Ikea LED lights, one each side.

The task is to explore the house, inside and out, finding new ways of looking at the familiar things that surround me every day, and literally shedding new light on them - hopefully producing a worthwhile photograph.
Might not be one every day, but we'll see.
A mountain goat, with Isolation Lake (7712'), Witches Tower (8520') and Dragontail Peak (8840') in background, The Enchantments, Alpine Lakes Wilderness, Washington Cascades.
A lone house on the shore of Loch Linnhe, nestled at the feet and folds of the beuatifully imposing, snow capped Ardgour mountains, drenched in light and shadow, backlit by sun dried Scots Pine and Birch, no-one else around, just the wind and the weather - Sounds idyllic doesn't it. We're do I sign?
It's getting a lot warmer here in Illinois and that means it's 100x easier to have the motivation to venture outside for photos. Luckily, it looks like this semi-warm weather will stick around for a while and that means photos!
Thomas a becket church
St Thomas à Becket Church in Fairfield stands alone in a field on the Marsh, surrounded by water courses and sheep. A causeway was built in 1913, and until then the church was more often than not surrounded by water during the winter and spring.
The church is dedicated to St Thomas à Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury from 1162 until his murder in 1170.
Legend has it that the Archbishop was journeying across the dangerous Romney Marsh, when he fell into one of the many ditches. He prayed to St.Thomas, as he came up for the second time, for a miracle to save him from a watery death. Just in time a farmer arrived to save him, and in gratitude the Archbishop had the little church built and dedicated to St Thomas a Becket.

The spring tides is one of the few occassions to get the lighthouse in the water. High tide was around 8.30am. I originally headed for Marine Lake, in Weston-super-mare, but the walkway was entirely under water. I decided to head down to Burnham.
When I arrived, the tide was just turning. A sea mist was in the air. I planned a 10-stop image and was not disappointed. The Lee Big Stopper has a blue cast, but rather than convert to mono, I decided to keep it. I thought a pano crop would give a feelng of isolation.
St Laurence's church in Ansley is one of the most rewarding churches of north Warwickshire. It stands in near isolation at Church End, some distance west of the modern Ansley village (which is practically a suburb of Nuneaton).
The earliest parts of the present building are thought to date from c1050 and there are substantial Romanesque features such as the chancel arch (with sculpted capitals) and the north door.
The soaring west tower is 15th century, as is much of the nave, whilst the chancel was extended eastwards in 1760 (the former east window being re-used on the north side with considerable fragments of medieval glass). The final addition was the north aisle and nave arcade of 1913.
The church is sadly normally kept locked, but has regular open days during the summer, so it is best to plan ahead to visit. It is worth getting inside, particularly for it's stained glass, specifically the medieval glass in the Georgian chancel (possibly by Thornton of Coventry) and the spectacular west window by Karl Parsons, one of the finest Arts & Crafts windows in existence.
The Westfjords or West Fjords (Icelandic: Vestfirðir [ˈvɛstˌfɪrðɪr̥], ISO 3166-2:IS: IS-4) is a large peninsula in northwestern Iceland and an administrative district, the least populous administrative district. It lies on the Denmark Strait, facing the east coast of Greenland. It is connected to the rest of Iceland by a seven-kilometre-wide isthmus between Gilsfjörður and Bitrufjörður. The Westfjords are very mountainous; the coastline is heavily indented by dozens of fjords surrounded by steep hills. These indentations make roads very circuitous and communications by land difficult. In addition many of the roads are closed by ice and snow for several months of the year. The Vestfjarðagöng road tunnel from 1996 has improved that situation. The cliffs at Látrabjarg comprise the longest bird cliff in the northern Atlantic Ocean and are at the westernmost point in Iceland. The Drangajökull glacier is located in the north of the peninsula and is the fifth-largest of the country, but the only glacier of the region.
