Day 336: City Life

Day 336 ‘City Life’ – 28/10/10 I added Nik Software’s HDR Efex Pro to the rest of the Nik Complete Collection i picked up for Aperture before i kicked of my 365. This has given me the interest to have a little bit of a play with HDR again after becoming a bit disenfranchised by my [...]

Day 270: Highlighters

Day 270 ‘Highlighters’ – 23/08/10 Perhaps too much, but i deliberately over saturated the green (and splash of yellow) in this shot. I decided that i wanted a splash of colour for todays image and was drawn to the green mossy walls (again), however felt this worked as a selective colour image with the scene in [...]

Day 208: Black Magic

Day 208 ‘Black Magic’ – 22/06/10 This is a retake of the’Magic Wand’ from day 88, i loved the way this looked with the reflections of the clouds in the sky. So as to add a twist from the original, this time it is in stark black and white, giving a different abstract feel. Rating [...]

Day 136: From Millwall Docks

Day 136 ‘From Millwall Docks’– 11/04/10 I was torn between black and white, and colour for this shot, so went for my blend of selective colouring again. I think this works nicely to capture this urban city skyline of Canary Wharf from Millwall Docks. I was torn with posting up another photo for today, but [...]

Day 129: Memories of 1998 from a Disposable Camera

Day 129 ‘Memories of 1998 from a Disposable Camera’– 04/04/10 There have been a couple of posts recently i have seen that have inspired this photo,  one of Miyajima gate and a one of old memories. These inspired me to dig through some of my old photos, that i took back in 1998 when i [...]

Day 125: On the Straight and Narrow

Day 125 ‘On the Straight and Narrow’– 31/03/10 Another close to straight out the camera shot today, only a minor tweak into black and white from the original on the way into work this morning. Again this is a re-take of a former shot that didn’t quite make the 365, this time though with the [...]

Day 109: Just Waiting for the Trains to Come

Day 109 ‘Just Waiting for the Trains to Come’– 15/03/10 Sometimes i need to learn to have the courage of my convictions! I really liked this shot on its own, but needed a positive confirmation on my Flickr stream that perhaps it worked much better on it’s own than as part of a Diptych! So [...]

Day 59: Black and White

Day 59 ‘Black and White’ – 24/01/10 This is a photo of a wall at Embankment London Underground Station, presumably in-between advertising posters. I liked the absolute simplicity of this shot, and decided to keep  the grain on the white section as i think it gives it more character. Rating 2.50 out of 5 [?]

Day 58: Bleeding Through

Day 58 ‘Bleeding Through’ – 23/01/10 A morning trip to the post office took me past this spot, i liked the way the vent seemed to be bleeding black from the wall of the building. Playing around with the shot at home, and realising Black and White just wasn’t right for this took me into [...]
