Day 327: Valves Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Craft a photo using strong contrast between very light and very dark areas." This is a photo of the two valves in my Peavey Valve King 112 guitar amp. I think they look really cool in the dark, although I don’t think I’ve…

Day 326: Sweet Pea Droplets Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photo of something that sparkles in some way" Sadly the sparkling doesn’t really come out so well in this picture. If it had been more sunny, the water droplets would have sparkled and it would have been beautiful! But…

Day 324: Pink Flower Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: This is similar to the shot I did on day 35 of my project 365 challenge, although I think this is a better photo! I quite like the symmetry of taking two photos at either end of the project – that’s what it’s all about,…

Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a photograph dominated by the color blue” This is on a local field, not exactly sure what it is! Day 322: Do Not Fill Originally uploaded by phillsacre

Something I seem to be seeing more of recently is Skepticism: these days it seems fashionable to call oneself a ‘skeptic’. (I’m using a ‘k’ rather than a ‘c’ just because I can.

It’s been a bit of a busy old weekend once again! On Friday night we had our last ever 21. (Well, the last for the foreseeable future at least). It was a social, we just played games and had some food… in general it was a good evening! We’ll definitely miss all the 21ers, although…

Day 321: Thing… on the ground Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photo from ground level" Well I have no idea what this is, but it’s at ground level. Unfortunately you can’t really see the ground very well so you’ll just have to take my word for it!

Day 320: Be Thou My Vision Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photo that features stripes of some sort today." I’ve done it a few times before, but I always like the ‘stripes’ of a music score. We sung ‘Be Thou My Vision’ at the wedding yesterday, I was playing…

Day 318: Spanners Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photo of a tool today" Unfortunately this isn’t one I use every day, but these are kept in the car for use if ever I need them…

Day 317: Keyboard Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph today dominated by dark values" This was taken in a bit of a hurry, but I think it didn’t come out too badly nonetheless.
