Saw this ladybird on a gatepost when I nipped out after work. Again taken through a reversed nifty fifty. Can’t wait for my Kenko tubes to arrive!

I was an the Talk Photography forums earlier asking for a brief to shoot tonight and Edinburgh Gary suggested the viaduct. So here it is. I got there a bit later than I wanted so the type of shot I was going for had to be changed.

Also took this hdr, but I’m not sure if it really works.

Decided to go and retake a shot a grabbed a while ago I was never really happy with the lighting on the original so I went down and tried some spot metering to see if I could get a better range. The exposure turned out pretty good, but the colours looked a little washed out so I little PP later and this is what came out. Might have to go and take the shot again some time soon!

Was struggling for inspiration today. Well not really inspiration I suppose, but more something I could shoot in the very little time I had. So I lay on the floor in the living room and looked what I could see. These old sandals came into play.

Well I’ve completed a week of my 365 challenge. I took this by holding my nifty reversed next to my kit lens. I didn’t tape them together or use a reversing ring, so focusing was entertaining but It seemed to work.

I’ve been on a night hike with the scouts, we set off at 10pm last night and got back at 7 am this morning. To say we are tired is an understatement. I didn’t really have any time for any real photography so here is a picture of the scouts.

Doh, I actually went out this evening with the intention of getting some captures. I went to Mellor Church and down to Etherow only to discover when I got back that my camera settings were completely fecked. I thought the shutter speeds I was getting were quite fast!

More photos on my flickr stream.
