Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 42

Sunset on the Lune, taken at Halton, just a few hundred metres away from the less-than-photogenic sewage treatment works.

Again, there's nothing special about this photo, yet I'm oddly fond of it. Perhaps it's the colours that do it for me, I don't know.

Taken with the 10mm lens and a linear polariser. Just a shame that the ISO setting ended up so high.

Les eaux de la Lune

Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 26

Taken at Bull Beck, near Caton, on a bend in the Lune.

I was stood at the water's edge as I too this, having tromped through a field left insanely boggy by the floods of two weeks back.

I'm starting to long for some blue sky and decent weather so that I can venture further afield and try new things. As it is, I quite like this shot but would have liked to have changed the angle of it slightly so that it felt bigger.

It's a little too dark, I think, mostly as a result of processing, but I couldn't bring out the reflections in the water without blowing the sky completely.

About

Graham Binns is a writer, photographer, musician and software developer from Lancaster, England, with far too much hair, a penchant for odd t-shirts and a magnificent hat. He has been making things up for as long as he can remember and has been making code work for long enough to make a living from it.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
