Managed to get some drawing out at Biddulph Grange with friends last week. Did a bit to the greenery at home but mostly completed sitting out. It was quite a busy day and quite narrow paths so not easy to find somehwere to sit. I enoyed doing the rocks and the...
The challenge from 52Frames this week is Pattern with an extra challenge of Pattern in Nature. I liked this as a challenge and had thought I might use photos of some stones I had found on the beach in Orkney. When I came to look at them though I felt they would...
This week's challenge is What Is It? At first I was truly uninspired and then I had a thought and completed my image all in one go this afternoon. It went really quickly and I thoroughly enjoyed it, which is great as I spent the first half of the week having no...
The challenge for 52Frames this week is Shoot from Above (https://52frames.com). I have been doing quite a lot of online jigsaws recently and really enjoy the aerial landscapes. I thought I would look for something on line. It is the first time I have used...
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...
This week's challenge for 52Frames is Extreme Closeup. The suggestion is to create an image that occupies the whole frame. I did a real closeup of a leaf for an earlier challenge, so did not want to do the same thing. It would be fair to say I was not feeling...
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...
This weeks 52Frames challenge (https://52frames.com/) is Reflections! I really like this subject and I had a few photos options to choose from. I decided to use one I took at The National Botanic Gardens of Wales some years ago. It has been in a folder called...
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...
