    Day 362: Sedum and guests Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photo of something that reminds you of that sense of childhood wonder" Well, one thing I think I’ve always been amazed at is how intricate nature is. This is a photo of a sedum flower with a bee, as…

  • Day 361: Mirror, Mirror…

    Day 361: Mirror, Mirror… Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Play with reflections in a photograph today" I’m afraid I’m having to inflict my face on you again today. I didn’t think this one came out too badly, even though I did have to assume a slightly strange position to take the…

  • Day 360: River

    Day 360: River Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph that emphasizes the horizon today" Not sure whether this exactly emphasizes the horizon but still.

  • Day 359: CD Tower

  • Day 358: The Shell

    Day 358: The Shell Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: This is a photo of the shell (sculpture) at Aldeburgh. It’s caused quite a bit of a stir over the past few years, some people really like it and some people really don’t!

  • Too much going on!

  • Day 355: Spoon

    Day 355: Spoon Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph of something smooth" This is the back of a spoon, which is fairly smooth. I haven’t done one of these photos before so wanted to try it. Need to work on it more methinks, maybe with a slightly less curved…

  • Day 354: CDs

    Day 354: CDs Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Find an interesting way to display and make a photo of a collection today" Well, I ‘collect’ CDs. This is a close-up of some of my Beatles albums (well, all of them to be honest, I don’t have that many). I don’t know…

  • Project 365: Isle of Wight

    Isle of Wight, a set on Flickr. Some of my recent Project 365 photos from the Isle of Wight. Apologies for not uploading these before but… well, I couldn’t. The 3G connection was flaky at best! Hope you enjoy these anyway 🙂

  • Day 346: Beacon

    Day 346: Beacon Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Create a photograph that illustrations connection" I thought there would be a fairly low chance of anyone else taking a photo of a beacon! Back in the old days, there weren’t many options for sending long-distance messages. Beacons were one innovative example. This…
