Day 254: Bark Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Illustrate randomness in a photograph today." One of the things that I like about nature is the fact that it’s unpredictable. The bark on this tree is unique to this tree – even though it may look similar to other trees 🙂 It’s…

Well, what a weekend it was! Four glorious days off… fantastic 🙂 Friday was, of course, the day of the Royal Wedding. I didn’t know whether to watch it or not, in the end I decided to and enjoyed it. My favourite bits of the service were the Bible reading (Romans 12 – very unusual…

Day 253: Crops Growing Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph that is composed of several layers today." Well this photo is of rows of crops in a field growing away. I don’t think the rows came out that clearly but I quite like the photo so decided to use…

I thought I’d give you another general life update now, rather than a general weekend style update, as I will do that tomorrow. So: at the end of my last post on the subject, I had been accepted by the Church for training but hadn’t been offered a place at college. Well, I’ve now been…

Well, the sound I want to illustrate today is probably cheating slightly, but I just wanted to illustrate the sound of silence. Of peace and tranquility. As you can see in the photograph, this place…

Badgers near Fordham, a set on Flickr. Last night Liz, a friend of ours from church, took us out to see the badgers near Fordham. It was amazing. We picked her up and then drove out there (it’s not far on from Fordham). We parked as close as we could get, and then wheeled her…

Day 247: Flowers Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a black and white photograph today." Well technically this is sepia but still. I think I’m getting better at knowing what would make a good B&W photo. I do love B&W, it gives a great chance to focus on form and tone…

Day 246: Late Evening Gate Originally uploaded by phillsacre We went out this evening to see some badgers (no, really). The sun was setting as we waited, and I took one or two pictures. It was a beautiful sky.
