I just found out that I won a photo competition! It was a local church who were running it, and I entered the photo below into the water category. It won the category, and was also voted best in show!! Chuffed, to be honest. I think it’s probably the best photo I’ve ever taken (best […]

Set myself a mini challenge this week – to take 7 photos on a musical theme. Quite happy with the results, so here they are! I also realised that I’m starting to take photos trying to please the other members of 365project.org, and try to make it into the popular pages / top 20. This […]

Ha – bet the title made you think this was another photography entry! What’s that? It didn’t? Oh well. It’s actually pretty well halfway through the year, so I thought I’d take stock over my resolutions and targets for 2011 (as first covered in this entry). Climbing – absolutely dismal! Haven’t been since April, and […]

Continuing the theme of photographing my culinary creations, today it was the turn of Rocky Roads! We had the pleasure of looking after a good friend’s daughter all morning, and while she spent a considerable amount of time like this: We also concocted the following – if I do say so myself – delicious biccies! […]

One of the frustrating (although not in a bad way) things about the 365 project is the one-photo-per-day rule. I had the fortune to pop down to Cornwall for a few days last week, and ended up at the end of each day with several good (IMO!) candidates for that day’s picture. Only one allowed […]

Hope I’m not getting boring!! The last 6 posts have been about photography, and this is no exception. I’ll save some bandwidth by not actually including any pictures this time – how about that? Starting week 4 of my 365 (which in itself is a bit scary), and haven’t particularly struggled so far for inspiration […]

For no particularly good reason, I have decided to mirror my Flickr 365 set on a ‘proper’ 365 site, in this instance: 365project.org I like 365project because it has a calendar view that shows you the picture from each day, and it allows e-mail submission (but haven’t tried that yet!) [Edit – note on flickr […]

As I’ve mentioned before, I’m working my way through the Practical Photography’s DSLR Skills Bootcamp. This month is about creative metering and exposure, and the assignment is to take a long exposure shot of a moving car, but panning it so the car is sharp and the background is blurred. So I spent lunchtime today […]

Managed my first week of 365, and have more or less uploaded a photo every day! The only doozy was the “bags 2 school”, which I think I can improve with a bit of cropping – see below. [Edit, now using cropped version!] I’ve also entered a photo competition, but I’m not going to say […]

I’ve add a slightly more convenient ‘in’ to the 365 photos, although it does require Flash. Point a browser at www.eutony.net/365 to see the pics, and that page also has a direct link to the set on Flickr (the less than memorable www.flickr.com/photos/66189293@N00/sets/72157626684135070/). I’ve also added it to the left navigation panel. Aren’t I kind? […]
