I do like the 50mm wide open & focussed on a mid point. It would have been perfect with a silhouette of a cyclist speeding by in the background or a chained vintage looking bike with a wicker basket...maybe sometimes I think and expect too much ;-) I also thought this would convert really well to mono...but it didn't, the bikes just got lost in the background. Any road, I like it.
Eeek guess what! It's the start of my 10 year photography anniversary celebration! Today begins 10 days of giveaways, starting with a free Flickr Pro Account.
I have a lot to celebrate from my journey. And as I thought about all of those things, I thought about this community first and foremost. Flickr is my home, it always has been. I started my career here, I begin my journey with some of you reading this right now...and I owe so much to it. So much. Everything, I daresay.
It's a privilege for me to share my work and be a part of this...this...place. This haven. I've been creating for a decade. A decade of failures and successes, of ups and downs, but if I'm honest, it's been mostly up, and I've been mostly very happy, and I want to give some of that back over the next 10 days.
To win the Flickr Pro Account, comment and let me know how you got your start in creativity.
I started photography on the day I uploaded my first image to Flickr. I went from writing in school to filmmaking in college to photography right after, and I've never looked back. It has been my passion ever since.
yep, it's a kite. weird developing mishap at the photo lab... in case you're wondering, the sky wasn't green that day.
Minolta SRT-101 / Fuji 400
last from this trip to St Davids I think. It seems I managed to squeeze most mileage out of this glorious single evening on this trip.
It was the networking of telephone cables that really added something to this one for me. Enjoy ;)
Another from the "vault" series. Took this a month or so ago out at Point Halloran with a good mate of mine. Overlooked this shot the first time, but looking through these shots the second time the DOF on this caught me and I though I might let it see the light of day.

Foula is an outlying island of the Shetlands, in the Atlantic Ocean 30km or so west of the main group; it measures roughly 4km by 6km, and has magnificent seabird cliffs culminating in the Kame of Foula (376m).
Auxin is synthesized at the shoot tip and helps the cell grow longer. When a tendril comes in contact with a support, auxin stimulates faster growth of the cells on the opposite side, so the tendril forms a coil... like a watch spring... around the support.
That's a wrap!
