Day 201: Recordings Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot: assignment “Make a photo of two complementary objects arranged in a pleasing composition, one large and one small.” I thought today I’d make a picture of a CD next to (or on top of) a vinyl record. The difference in size is pretty significant! That said,…

Day 200: Sat Nav Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a photograph that illustrates a role of technology in your life.” Well, one thing which has made a big difference is my phone. It’s an HTC Wildfire (an Android phone), which I think is brilliant. It has Sat Nav (demonstrated), Twitter, email, a…

Day 199: Cup of Tea Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a photograph that illustrates randomness in some way today.” Well, my shot is… a cup of tea! I think this illustrates randomness pretty well: hot tea is a strong Brownian Motion producer, as anyone who’s ever listened to / read the Hitchhiker’s…

Day 198: Blue Stone Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a photograph of a beautiful simple shape, such as an egg, today. Utilize lighting and focus to make it sing.” Well this is a pretty simple shape – it’s a blue coloured stone. We have a few of these out in the garden,…

Day 197: The Chelmer Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a photograph that features water in one way or another today.” Another picture of the Chelmer this week, from a different angle! I think it definitely involves water, though. Shame it wasn’t such a nice day, but I still think the sky is…

Day 196: Tree and Sky Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a feeling that conveys a sense of being outdoors today.” Well, I was thinking about what I love about the outdoors, and I think this captures it to an extent. It was a cloudless blue sky, nice sunny day, and I was…

This weekend started off nicely: we had Friday night free due to JOY (more on that later), so we just had the night in and didn’t do very much. It was a rather nice evening anyway! On Saturday we spent the morning doing various chores, and then in the evening we headed out to Fordham…

Day 195: Chelmer in Spring Originally uploaded by phillsacre It was a beautiful spring day today, I think this is my favourite photograph I took today.

Day 194: Smile Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a photograph of a smile today.” Slightly cheating again today, but I didn’t want to do another self-portrait. I bank with Smile, as you can see, and the logo has a picture of a smile on it. Apologies for the dust etc…

Day 193: My Desk Originally uploaded by phillsacre Daily Shoot assignment: “Make a low contrast photo today. Concentrate on other cues—such as line and texture—to create your photograph.” Unfortunately I didn’t really manage with the line, but I think the texture of the desk hasn’t come out too badly.
