Day 170: Bunch of flowers
Day 170: Bunch of flowers Originally uploaded by phillsacre Today’s Daily Shoot challenge was “Change your point of view. Make a photograph from an unusual point of view today.” Well, unfortunately this photo probably looks a lot more pedestrian than it was to take. I had to stand on a chair to get it (the

Day 169: River
Day 169: River Originally uploaded by phillsacre Today’s Daily Shoot assignment is “Make a photograph that features a leading line through it today. Draw the viewers eye through the image.” I thought a river might fulfil that criteria – the lines of the river draw your eye into the distance!

The past few days
I’ve been a bit lax in updating recently. Unfortunately I’ve not been well: I had a cold Tuesday and Wednesday last week, and again today! I think this was mainly because I went back to work before I felt completely better, and probably overdid it at the weekend as well. Speaking of the weekend… On

Day 165: Abstract Colour
Day 165: Abstract Colour Originally uploaded by phillsacre The Daily Shoot challenge was: “Go abstract today and make a photograph that focuses on form and color rather than detail.” I think this qualifies as abstract, not sure how good it is though!

Day 164: Rock and Tree
Day 164: Rock and Tree Originally uploaded by phillsacre The Daily Shoot challenge today was “Create a photo that gives a sense of depth or dimension.” What I was aiming for with this picture was a sense of depth, i.e. the rock close up, the tree further away, the horizon… just my take on it

Day 163: Reach for the Sky
Day 163: Reach for the Sky Originally uploaded by phillsacre The Daily Shoot challenge today was to “make a photograph with a low horizon that emphasises the sky”. Well, the horizon here is so low you can’t even see it! I did play around with the colours a little but in the end decided the

Day 162: Catkins and Pine Cones
Day 162: Catkins and Pine Cones Originally uploaded by phillsacre Recently I’ve taken pictures of catkins. I’ve also taken pictures (or a picture) of a pine cone. You may have been thinking, “Where can he possibly go from there? Where can he take this further?” Well, wonder no longer. This is it: Catkins AND pinecones…
