Photo Of The Day.

[Steve Randles]

I love that sculpture Julia, you've captured it nicely! Must be kinda spooky having that hanging about the area.

 

 

I've been trying to get a half decent pic of a Gull in flight for a while now, the buggers keep moving though and trashing the shot. I finally got this one the other day, not quite what I want, but getting there.

I love photographing Church's and old buildings for the architecture, here's a stained glass window on the inside - I love the light playing on the wall in this one.

Hi Tracy

 

I understand exactly what your trying to say. It's all about composition, the do's and don'ts etc...

I'm not incredibly good a explaining things, and with something like this it's important to get your facts right, so have a read of this .... http://photoinf.com/General/KODAK/guidelin...omposition.html

Hope it helps.

 

As for the sculpture, yes it's a permanent fixture. They have a few in Woking, including a lifesize plane!

Regarding my image, I prefer the close up but this is probably because I know the scultpure and have seen other images of it before. I wanted to get that feeling of the unknown, 'how big is it?' ' is it real?' 'what the hell is it?'

 

Bye for now - Julia.

 

Very usefull and simply done on that link Finpix, put it my favourites, its a bit late now to take it in properly, time for kip.

Absolutely love the church photo Steve, you can't beat stained glassed windows and the effects they give off, brilliant.

I think B&W works really well for the above piccy, excellent shot Judy.

 

I dragged the missus out for a walk on the Prom when I got in from work this PM, she wasn't keen on going because of the weather, but I convinced her it wasn't too bad - oops , and just to prove that Sea fisherman are all barking mad here's a snap of some poor fella braving the elements: -

I absolutely love rough weather, although preferably not being out in it. We have no curtains on our bedroom windows, we are high up so no one can see in and we have windows on three sides so we lay in bed at night and watch the moon, stars, lightning, wind and rain. Give me a storm and I'lll give you a romantic evening.

 

Great shots rabster and nurse judy. I have some nice ones of the Onkaparinga Gorge that runs from Clarendon through the hills to the Murray Mouth in South Australia. There is a waterhole that is quite tricky to get to, I can't manage it anymore. Ten years ago my boyfriend and I use to sunbake there nude, there were no tracks to get there, you had to climb down the cliff, so no worries about casual walkers coming by. There is a rock face with a huge nose that I affectionately named 'Dustin Hoffman' Rock. Couldn't get the scanner to work so these are photos of photos, sorry about the quality. The DH Rock is in the bottom left corner of the second group. These photos are of the same area, a tiny bit upstream, but taken at different times of the year. The top left hand pic is the same waterfall you can see in the top right pic.

Now that looks an awesome location TB, shame you can't get back there, it probably needs a few larger images posting to really do it justice.
