johnloguk > 30.01.10 - Gotta Love The Blues The bare trees suggest that this scene isn't quite as Summery as it looks, and they're right. It was 1degree centigrade down at Burton Waters this morning. The sun itself was quite warm, but there was a bitter wind blowing. If you view this at X3L you can see the sun and ripples making patterns on the white boat. I have a few more shots from this morning here; http://johnloguk.smugmug.com/gallery/7159944_Yo4wj#776807943_zc3ea
johnloguk > 30.12.09 - Avatar I could write a long caption about this shot, but all I want to do is tell everyone to go and watch the film "Avatar" right now. I took this looking back at the cinema after watching a truly remarkable film. It is a game changer as far as the CGI is concerned, but it is a damn good film anyway. The story has been told a million times, but it needs to be re-told until everyone gets it, IMHO of course :)
johnloguk > 5.10.08 Swanholme Lakes Sunset No big colours in the sky last night but it was still a beautiful sunset. I went down to Hartsholme Park and Swanholme Lakes hoping to get some Autumn colour in the late afternoon light, and got this instead. Water literally adds another dimension to sunsets, with the cool breeze creating some nice ripples to add to the reflections. There aren't many places with a clear view across the Lakes, but I think the trees and foliage add something to this shot anyway. It is hard to believe that this place is in the middle of a City. At dusk the birdsong almost drowns out the noise of distant traffic. There were quite a few people around, walking the dog, jogging, or just taking in the quietness at the end of the day. My internet connection was hopeless over the weekend, so I hardly got to comment on the Dailies. I'll add some more shots from last night if the connection holds up this morning. Uploaded some more shots here; http://johnloguk.smugmug.com/gallery/4053411_yY5Qg#387836374_7zD84
johnloguk > 4.8.08 - Ripples I had intended to do another SP today, I thought it was about time, otherwise I'd start getting bullied again (you know who you are MB!). But it has been a very hectic day, I'll try to summarise it without boring anyone :) I had barely finished my breakfast when I got a phone call, total change of plans for today. Apart from a few minutes over a late lunch, when I actually managed to get home, I've been on the move all day. I finally got back at 9pm, with a stack of emails to answer and more phone messages. Most of these mean more changes of plan for tomorrow, and more work, but one was good news, really good news. I have won my first photographic competition, hooray, and this is the image that won. I took it nearly a year ago, as one of a series, and it has remained one of my favourites. I would do certain things differently if I got the chance, but throwing a pebble into a lake to generate your own ripples is a neat trick, if you get your aim and the timing right :) Unfortunately I have a pile of paperwork to do before the morning, so I can't promise that I'll be able to catch up with the Dailies, but I'll try later. But for now I'm going to have a beer, if I can drink it with this big daft grin on my face :))
