040/365v2 The Incoming Tide

Handholding a shot for a second is not recommended…but I had deliberately set out without my tripod, I’d left it in the car…then I saw this view and thought I’d like to at least try and get this shot. I had to reduce the ISO to 50 to get the

039/365v2 Stortford Studio Day

It was the 2nd Bishops Stortford Camera Club Studio Club today and we had a “Desparate Housewives” style photoshoot. I’m not allowed to show any of the shots from the actual shoot yet as we were doing it for a local business, but it was great fun. In the picture

037/365v2 Elijah Asymmetric Triptych

I’ve done this shot to myself (a couple of years ago) so I don’t feel bad about doing it to one of our cats, Elijah. So three shots, one is the standard Elijah and two are symetrical versions of him created by using one half of his face on each

031/365v2 Badger

One twelve of the way through this years 365 and it’s been a struggle…things can only improve. Today’s shot is fairly typical of the month, a bit of a safe grab shot of one of our cats Badger, who hates having his photo taken – he was straight under the
