Day 263: Cistus Flower Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: We have a Cistus in our garden which flowers between about May and September. Flowers appear each day and are a beautiful pinky colour. You can kind of see it in this picture but due to lack of rain recently the grass is brown and…

Day 262: Pill Box internal view Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Frame a view using a door or a window today" Well this is the view from the window of a WWII pillbox. I think I’ve done something similar before but not inside this one. This is one of the few…

Day 261: London Pride Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph dominated by the color red today." This is a flower in our garden called "London Pride". I think it’s quite attractive 🙂 It’s come out a bit more pink than red, but still… it’s close!

Day 260: Seed Head Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph using soft light today" Well I don’t think it’s easy to tell from this photo but the light out today was soft because of the cloud. No harsh sunlight here! And I know I’ve done seed heads before. Well,…

Day 259: Sun behind clouds Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Illustrate warmth in a photograph today" Well, all our warmth comes from the sun! It was a warm day today here as well.

Day 258: Euphorbia Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph with no obvious horizon." Well, although you can see the ground in this picture you can’t see the horizon! I do like the background though – the sun was shining just in the right direction 🙂

Strings Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph that features vertical lines today." Well these guitar strings are getting a bit old now but they are vertical!

Day 256: Sky Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph of the sky today". This photograph was taken in the gathering dusk. There was so much going on in the sky, I think it looks beautiful!

Day 255: Shadowy Music Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photo dominated by shadows today." Well I think this photo is pretty firmly in the shadows! The right section of the picture came out much darker than I’d intended, but I quite like it actually.
