Taken with 7artisans 60mm f2.8 Macro

There a multiple reasons why my camera has been collecting dust recently.

One of the more enjoyable explanations is that I started playing strategic board games.

Games we regularly play are:

Carcassone

Dominion

Ticket to Ride

Agricola

(and expansion sets for them all!)

I most often play them with one or both of my boys. My parents come over each week for a games night as well. And there are a couple of small groups that get together occasionally. I probably lose more than I win but it doesn't matter; I find all of them rewarding.

I did get out for an evening walk at Iona Regional Park on Thursday. Carried, but never used my tripod. But still snapped a few shots while wandering around for 3.5 hours of solitude and exercise. It felt good.

The nice part of my life now is that I can create frosted visions as I please.....and not by drinking or drugging myself to death...

now how cool is that.....

The Northumberland coastline is a landscape photographers paradise and this remote spot is no exception.

Rumbling Kern, a precarious bit of rocky coastline jutting out into the North Sea, you could spend an age here and come up with something different each time, such is the vastness of the rock formation and patterns, the hardest parts are spotting something you want to shoot and then trying to get to it without going flying on seaweed or falling down crevices in the rocks.

This spot looked like it had potential and took a good while to get out to safely, this took quite a while to set up as the tripod had to be balanced either side of the gap between the 2 rock faces and I was stood on a tiny bit of rock that stretched between the 2 as well, with all my stuff laid out on either side, balancing legs between the rock faces while trying to compose the shot and put filters on, while keeping an eye on the tide that was on it's way back in... not an easy proposition.

Decided on a portrait format image here with the 16-35mm lens, I could have gone slightly wider but that would have meant using really clumbersome filters and there was hardly any room to move about at all so the location dictated the set up for me.

This was the result, I was really drawn to the rock textures and the deep gully leading into the ocean with the colourful seaweed clinging to the rocks, the sea made a fantastic noise as it rushed into this narrow channel and splashed up at the rear of me. As soon as this one was in the bag it was back to the shoreline before the sea cut this rocky section off, definitely a place I'll come back to again and again.

Have a zoom in and have a look around.

This dock was built to replace the one Hurricane Denise destroyed. Unfortunately Hurricane Michael took this one out. They have a new dock now, but I liked this one better. I hope the new one last longer. This is always a good spot to catch the sunrise over the Carrabelle River. This is a shot that I had never processed, so I thought I would try texturing it. I processed it in Photoshop using two of my own textures.
