So, here I am , reaching for a unique view. And its a challenge - So I'm posting my most challenging photo from my day in San Fran. Looking I believe west on Union just after passing Van Ness. Just after an abandoned gas station, some broken glass, a strewn newspapers... Not my normal view of San Fran. So I took a non-normal view of San Fran. And this is where it took me.
I have a new lens, one that challenges me, and I'm looking at things in new ways. And its difficult. And I couldn't be more happy or excited... Or, to be honest, frustrated, because I really don't know how to use this lens yet. But yet, that's the happy & excited bit. Because I've got a lot of work to do, a lot of photographs to take. And some mind-bending wide angles to capture.
More to come... From this walk and from many more to come...

A rather quiet Christmas period photography-wise but managed to get down to Cocklawburn beach near where my parents live for a couple of mornings. This gave me a rather rare opportunity for some long exposure seascapes which I find really enjoyable. Generally I prefer shorter long exposures as others shot during these mornings will show, with each incoming wave presenting a fresh canvas. However I've been a fan of these rocks for sometime and thoguht they would look good with a longer exposure.
When reviewing this again, what's kind of weird is that if you imagined laying the outline of the British Isles onto the sea, then I think this looks like the east coast from Northumberland all the way up to John O'Groats. Even more strangely, the position the image was taken (Northumberland) strangely aligns with where it would be on this outline at the bottom of the frame. Pretty cool. Oh, just me then? :)
Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas!

Gravestone shadows are like the shadows of shade trees that offer comfort on a summer day. At least so far as they block the light of the sun. But there's nothing at all comforting about gravestones shadows. Especially in winter. They are harsh, sharply defined, and come with a feeling of menace. It's as if the dead are reaching out for me. It's unsettling to me the way the shadows stab out as if in search of someone to engulf in their darkness. It's the seeming selectivity that's worrisome. The effect is heightened this time of year as the sun has reached its nadir of winter solstice. The effect is sinisterly long shadows that seem to stretch on to infinity. Standing here it seems incomprehensible that a four foot tall monument can cast a shadow hundreds of feet in length. I pause within their grasp long enough to consider to visual impact. But another part of my brain screams to step aside, to get out of the gravestone shadow before it's too late. Superstitious to be sure, but I've never really gone wrong heeding my in new voice. I take a step back into sunlight and feel a tingle of relief.
