The challenge for 52frames this week (https://52frames.com/albums/2022/week-14-nature/challenge) is nature. This is a very wide brief. I would normally do a bird or maybe a reptile or insect. One of the options suggested is landscape. This is something I...
The challenge for 52Frames this week is to show emotion in your image. I looked at ways of displaying emotion; colour is important and in portraits you are advised to concentrate on the eyes. A lot of images showing emotion seemed to concentrate on sadness or...
This week the challenge set for 52Frames is Long Shutter Speed. I thought it would be interesting to have a go and see if I could depict movement in some way, the sort of blurring you can get with long shutter speeds. Some years ago at Festival at The Edge I...
The challenge set for 52Frames this week is An Activity. I had a couple of choices for reference, but love this picture I took in Procida, Italy. The little boys were sitting in the sun fishing. We were quite a long way above them. The photo has been cropped...

This week's challenge for 52Frames ( https://52frames.com/) is Depth of Field. I feel this is more of a photographic technique than an art one. I decided to do the equivalent of a macro; a real close up of something. I looked around and found two things I...
The challenge this week on 52Frames is Black and White. I really enjoy working in black and white, but this is usually black ink on white paper. So far I have enjoyed doing things I would not usually do, so decided to work in white on black paper. I considered...
This week 52Frames is Minimalist, with nude as an extra challenge (https://52frames.com/). This gave me an opportunity to look through my life drawing and see if I could rework something. I had several goes at this and this is the final image. The drawing is...
