Day 6 - Pair of White Lillies

Another even older shot. I started with flowers and they are still one of my favouite subjects. I tend to use my macro lens more these days so get much closer in. It's nice to look back and see how my approach has changed but also to see the whole (almost) flower occasionally. I must remember that for future shoots!

Day 5 - a very early shot

This is dated July 2004 in the EXIF data so must be one of the very 1st shots off my then new Canon G3. It's been a personal favourite for years, I even toned it and made a t-shirt transfer out of it and I used it for my very first business cards. It's been retired for a long while but I thought it would be nice to resurrect it for a brief time :)

Day 4, Gri Gri Lagoon, Dom Rep

The lovely Gri Gri lagoon - entrance to a mangrove swamp and all the pesky biting insects that see/hear/smell me coming from miles away. I had 40+ bites in one night and they all blistered. Still, it was nice to catch up with our Best Man who had been working out there for 6 months.

Day 3 - Euphorbia (I think)

I just love the colour and lighting on this one - not the prettiest or friendliest of plants (the sap can be an irritant) but tucked away in the corner of a friends garden, the close up brings out details not seen before.

Day 2 - Zante

Another fave pic today and coincidentally, one of my best sellers on the microstocks.

A Slight Change of Plan

Well, I have this blog sitting here, waiting for me to get motivated on the Flickr 365 photos project again but as it's looking unlikely for the foreseeable future, I may as well put something here.

I'm going to attempt to post a photo everyday , some new, some old favourites, some I've dug up from my forgotten archives and maybe a few experimental ones too.

It's the 1st day of Spring & several family birthdays today so I'm going to post one of my all time fav piccies - not necessarily the best shot but the associated memories are strong, peaceful and part of the dream that keeps me moving forward. Enjoy

Still Not Sorted Out!

Nope, things haven't settled down at all - in fact, I think I'm probably worse now than I was pre-Christmas but hopefully with the longer days and nicer weather, I should begin to feel alive again and hopefully my va-va-voom and mojo will come back too. Meanwhile, here's a tranquil river scene to brighten my 365 blog :)
