Day 27 - When "out of focus" is good.


This was taken in my garden....low to the ground.... On first look, I was pleased that the red took my eye instead of the unfocused foliage. The little speckles of white add a "cottagey feel".

This photo was taken from a KLM plane flying from Humberside (England) to Amsterdam (The Netherlands), when the snow was falling quite heavily.  The fields were covered in patterns giving amazing shots from above.

I often have cut flowers around the house, all bought by someone else....usually my dear husband.  When its pouring with rain outside, its time to get creative with the camera inside.  The splash of colour I added later, edited at www.photobucket.com .

Day 21 - Spring is Here?

 
 
Just walking home along Newland Avenue and spotted these lovely flowers, sat on the pavement ready for the flower shop.  They made me think of Spring.  Impulsively I took a shot with my mobile phone. Also made me wonder where the sun had gone in England??!!

Day 20 - Imposing Bridges

I am back after the Easter break and have decided to add additional background information about the picture I have taken. 

So here is Day 20 - Imposing Bridges

An experiment to test my own skills and perhaps others. Each day I shall post a topic.... I shall present my interpretation of that topic, here online. Please feel free to comment, good or otherwise, constructive criticism is the only way to learn to be a better photographer.

This was once a record breaking single span suspension bridge - The Humber Bridge, spanning the River Humber over to Lincolnshire and onward, down to the South of England.  Tolls have been high over the years but now, finally reduced making both sides of the river more accessible for everyone.
