Day 25

Day 25 . . . From a Distance




These images are all from my trip to London . . . We walked along the Thames edge and I thought this would be perfect for the distance shot. 

The day had some very heavy fog added to it . . . which meant the buildings in the distance were shadowed slightly by it. This I felt was quite a cool effect as the distance became whiter and whiter. 

Hope you are enjoying my 31 day challenge, I am loving it so far! Not long till the end though now, so keep posted for my last few days . . . 

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . Space . . .

Day 24

Day 24 . . . Bokeh . . . 




I love Bokeh, as I am sure you have seen already in some of my other photographs! I do use it a lot . . . woops . . .

This one I decided to do it slightly more abstracted. The focus, which you can vaguely see, in the image is a book with the pages turn so it looks like a love heart. I have seen love hearts created within a book in some of the most creative ways like the pages being folded . . . a ring casting a shadow . . . 

I hope you like this image, I am quite happy with it, it is one of my favorites from this challenge because of the dreaminess to it . . . the colours . . . the romance . . . the texture . . . the lighting . . . oh . . .  I just LOVE this picture!!!

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . From a Distance . . .

I am in London tomorrow so expect to see either a Documentary style image, or Architectural, or Artistic . . . the possibilities are endless.

Day 23

Day 23 . . . Architecture . . .





Architecture . . . It can be a simplistic beauty . . . a highly detailed beauty . . . or a classic beauty. In any form architecture just amazes me . . . it is a type of art in my mind, some you love, some you hate and some are just mind blowing. 

I wanted a classic black and white approach to these more modern architectural buildings. The first image mixes architecture throughout the ages, the second and third are of the modern age, the clean cut, simplistic approach. 

I am going to London tomorrow . . . I think I may just have take a few architectural photographs.

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . Bokeh . . .

Day 22

Day 22 . . . Out Of Focus . . .















I have once before created my own Bokeh using Photoshop, and was not that keen on the out come . . . so here is my first hand . . . using a trusty camera . . . attempt to create the Bokeh look. 

So much more successful than the digitally created . . . cameras all the way sometimes . . .

I would have loved to have done a scene with the Bokeh including . . . a Landscape . . . Looking across the Thames . . . Lights casting a reflection in the water . . . 

If only I lived in London! Or close by to water! Maybe one day . . .

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . Architecture . . .

Day 21

Day 21 . . . After Dark . . .


The nights are drawing in, christmas cards are appearing and now Christmas adverts . . . Oh yes its that time of year again . . .


. . . Christmas Time . . .

. . . I must admit I do get excited for Christmas, guilty pleasure of mine. Its just all the decorations, sweet nights in, its dark by 5pm and dark when you wake up, Christmas card making and all things jolly. 

I have used a different way of creating a photograph, I have an app on my phone called Text Cutie . . . oh I think its sooo good! You can add phrases onto image, any image from a huge selection and all are so me . . . very unique and pastel colours galore. 

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . Out Of Focus . . .
