The challenge this week is Redo. I chose the image I had done for Chaos for a couple of reasons. I enjoyed the process but was not happy with the end result. The oil pastel and Indian Ink etching is something I have wanted to experiment with. It was not a time...
Break the Rules! is the challenge for this week, set by 52Frames. I am going away in a couple of days and then its Christmas so I wanted something that didn't seem too involved. I decided I would try and create an image from a photograph trying to make it look...
Roll of 24, the challenge from 52Frames this week, refers back to film photography. The idea is to shoot 24 photos and then just pick one. I decided to go with photography this week, partly as I had an idea shooting Xmas lights, and partly as I was busy...
This weeks challenge set by 52Frames is Animals. I was rather pleased because I have some photos of heavy horses that I have been trying to get into one of the briefs. This week it’s an easy fit! I saw these horses being readied for the show at Poynton a few...
Wabi-sabi is this week's challenge for 52Frames. This is a Japanese concept that centres around acceptance of imperfection and impermanence. The extra challenge this week is abandoned buildings and I do have some suitable reference, but think they would...
Food is the challenge this week for 52Frames. My friend suggested trying Pointillism. It is a technique I had never tried before so thought it would be good for this weeks picture. I had a look at a couple of tutorials on line which were helpful. I put...
The 52Frames challenge this week is Street Photography. I think its a great challenge, although I expect it was much easier at the time I took this, than it is now. I wasn't sure I would have time to do this justice, as it feels like setting up the exhibition...
Chaos is the challenge this week for 52Frames. I took some quite nice photos of fallen leaves; autumn chaos. Then, I was sitting in last night and there were fireworks everywhere. It seemed a shame to miss such an opportunity! This seemed an ideal opportunity...
This week the brief for 52Frames is details. I was a bit stretched for time and decided to try a photograph that would then be edited in photoshop. My first idea was my brush pot that I had planned to do a previous week and then didn’t. I then thought a peacock...
This week 52Frames has set the challenge of Black and White Minimalism. I think this is quite similar to some of the other challenges. I thought I might do another white on black, maybe a feather. Then I came across photos of jackdaws outside my house that I...
