52Frames this week has set the challenge of Letters. I had a idea I was planning to develop, based on something I found from my A level work. Some months ago I had cut out the title of the Puzzles page from the Telegraph, cut it up and reassembled it, the idea...
This week 52Frames set the challenge of Golden Hour. This is the hour after sunrise and before sunset where the light is soft and diffused. I wanted to try and avoid a simple silouhette as we have already looked at that. I searched through some of my photos and...
52frames this week set the challenge of Choose a Colour. I have been picking little bunches of sweet peas from my garden for a few weeks and wanted to include them. Because I did not have many flowers I needed a vase with a tiny neck. I found this little bottle...

This week's 52Frames challenge is Inspired by an Artist!... well actually a photographer but I did Artist. All week I have been carrying a book around about Artist Dahlov Ipcar (https://www.dahlovipcarart.com/gallery). I came across her work a few years ago and...
The challenge put by 52Frames this week was abstract. This is, in theory, almost easier in art than photography. When I was in Pembrokshire with friends a couple of years ago, I took some photos of interesting rock formations. I thought they would work...
