rough draft, a few more pleats and a different head. From a triangle of grainy paper, a very nice paper that I've rather mangled here!

Just a trial shot from the open window of my study. The prominent tree is nearly 200 yards away. The break in the hedge is the site of a badger sett!
I had to try to get my rescued 35mm slide projector lens to focus at infinity. This photo is my first attempt with the lens hand held against the camera body whilst I tried to balance against the window. To say I was pleased is a bit of an understatement.
However I've spent a couple of hours this afternoon trying to get a permanent fixing to the camera and then the focus just right. The lens has no focusing along its barrel. I'm not quite there yet so tomorrow .....

Deposition (study), Tim Lowly © 2015 This drawing will be part of a large group exhibition title "Return of the Exquisite Corpse" at Printworks Gallery in Chicago, opening in early December. Each of the 105 artists has made one section of a vertical triptych of a body. In my case I've done the legs section. I have no idea what the two other sections combined with this one will look like or who they are by.
This drawing is also something of a conceptual study for the painting Deposition that I posted yesterday. I'll let you figure out how they are related...
Many thanks to everyone who chooses to leave a comment or who adds one of my images to their favorites, its much appreciated. Regards Craig
A quick study of the rocky shoreline of the Winnipeg River, viewed from the water. Knife painting on stretched canvas (oil, 11 x 14 in).

Same bridge different day. Artists, when creating a piece, often do a study which means you take an in-depth look at a given subject. Observing it and sketching it from different angles, in different lights, in order to unlock it's essence. The same can be done in photography. After dropping my girls at dance class I returned to the bridge I did my last selfie to do a further study of this location. Even though the camera angle is virtually the same there were plenty of differences to observe. ~ the weather was slightly overcast and threatening rain so the light was softer and less contrasty, the shadows not as strong. It's a month later and the landscape shows some changes, the trees being fuller with their new leaves of the season. Since I am in both shots it's a study of me as well. I am closer to the camera so I am a larger element in this composition. I like that my posture looks a little better here and both of my arms are showing. In the last shot one arm was hidden. I think carrying the umbrella here gives my walk more purpose. My shutter speed is slower showing some of the motion of my stride in a pleasant way. Observing these subtleties helps me hone my eye for aesthetics in images to see what I like and don't like and helps me improve as a photographer.
I may return again changing some other variables and see what else this location has to offer.
