    Day 241: Sorbus Signalman blossom Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a low contrast photograph today" Well I think this is fairly low-contrast. Well, slightly under average at least. I like it anyway 🙂 Our Sorbus Signalman has been in our garden for a few years and each years seems to…

  • Glass of Water

    Glass of Water Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: well, as the site isn’t loading at the moment I can’t quite remember, something to do with featuring water.

  • Day 238: Connection

    Day 238: Connection Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Illustrate connection in a photograph today" Well this is the jack connection for a Stratocaster guitar. This probably isn’t my greatest photo ever but it’s getting late and I needed to do something!

    It was a busy week last week! On Saturday we headed to Pwllheli, North Wales for the New Word Alive conference. We were going down a day early (the day before the rest of our group headed up) in order to buy food for the week. The journey itself went smoothly, we didn’t have any…

  • Day 236: Microphone

    Day 236: Microphone Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: First Daily Shoot I’ve done in a while, due to being away! The assignment is "Make a low-key photograph today."

  • Photos Uploaded

    phillsacre’s photostream on Flickr. I’m back from Wales! – and I’ve uploaded my photos from the week (well, the good ones anyway. There weren’t many). Take a look at my photostream to look at them…

  • New Word Alive

    Just a quick note to let you know that we are off to New Word Alive today. It doesn’t start until tomorrow but we’re going up a day early. You may be wondering why. Well, I’ll tell you. Some of the youth club are coming (our youth leader is driving the minibus up tomorrow), and…

  • Day 227: Fence

    Day 227: Fence Originally uploaded by phillsacre Via Flickr: Daily Shoot assignment: "Make a photograph that features a grid of some sort today." Well a fence is basically a grid, even if it’s not as obvious as some others 🙂
