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...
Have spent the day setting up my exhibition. I am pleased with how it looks. Starts on Sunday so fingers crossed. ...
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...
52Frames has asked photographers to Shoot Through Something this week. I think this would be quite interesting, but harder to think of something as an artist. I setlled on a picture I had taken at the Lost Gardens of Heligan in September this year. It is shot...

52Frames set a challenge of night photography this week. This gave me a chance to use another photo reference I have had sitting around. A year or so ago I took some photos, with the ipad, of my neighbours house. The full moon and the house were behind the...
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...
