Red
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 194 The Geranium that my girlfriend has been cultivating on our windowsill. I actually had to tone this down due to the D40x oversaturating it. I like how overpowering it is, though.
Slightly creepy
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 189 Seen at a car boot sale. Both items are just plain weird.
Notices
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 188 The notice board at Casterton Church, near Kirkby Lonsdale. (I’ve removed the phone numbers, just in case).
Peace
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 187 I may be an atheist, but I love this image; not for the cross, but for what it ought to represent, even though it is misused the world over.
What whispers did these walls one hear?
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 186 The remains of one of the walls of the great church at St Benet’s Abbey, on the banks of the River Bure. St Benet’s was alone in not being dissolved by Henry VIII. Instead, it was made part of the bishopric [...]
All that remains
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 185 The ruins of St Benet’s Abbey on the banks of the River Bure. This is an amazing set of ruins. Not only are parts of the abbey still there, but there’s also the remains of a wind pump that was built [...]
The way home
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 184 The path leading to South Walsham. Another case of I-should-have-followed-the-rule-of-thirds. Still, I like how this came out. Taken through a yellow filter to bring out the sky and lighten the corn. Just wish I could’ve got rid of the buildings…
Permissive
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 183 On banks of the river Bure. This would have worked better had I adhered to the rule of thirds and not had the horizon smack in the centre of the picture. This image, unless I’m mistaken, represents the halfway point of [...]
That’s one seriously endangered mouse
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 182 A Marsh Harrier, endangering the local wildlife on the river Waveney.
The purest form of travel
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 181 A private yacht on the river Bure, with the weather following behind.
Strings of pearls
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 176 Taken, as you might be able to tell, next to the London Eye at night. A lucky shot, really; I didn’t have the lens for this to work the way I would have liked, but it’s not bad.
Where summer doesn’t touch
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 175 I was kind of amazed that these trees still don’t have leaves on them. I’ve no idea why, though.
Dark side
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 174 I was trying to illustrate the duality of personality here, but I don’t think it quite worked. Actually, that’s rubbish. This was accidental, but I thought that it might almost work to illustrate the duality of personality. It’s not subtle enough [...]
Tock
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 173 Dandelion clock in the garden.
Stumped
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 172 Couldn’t get this one to turn out quite right, no matter what I did. Through a blue filter to bring out the texture.
Verboten
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 171 At Glasson Dock.
Waiting for the the tide
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 170 This ruined old boat sits by the side of the road at Sunderland, on the Lune estuary. I assume that it’s still fairly watertight, since it regularly changes position; the first time I saw it it was half buried in the [...]
Vein
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 169 Taken close-up with the 50mm Nikkor. Monochrome through a blue filter to bring out the veins.
Blowing my own horn
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 168 Because being a musician and not playing withers your soul.
And a star to steer her by
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 167 Taken at Glasson marina.
Drip
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 166 I’m usually pretty reticent about taking the camera out in the rain. I needed to get over that – it’s perfectly capable of surviving a bit of damp – so I shot some stuff on a rainy day. This was just [...]
Crushed sapphires and cotton wool
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 165 This was a test shot to make sure that my lens was clean. I love the colours – unretouched – and the pattern. I could look at skies like this all day and never get bored.
Homely
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 164 I think that the people who built this house did it in such a way as to make it deliberately idyllic, a bit like the way Stonehenge is oriented so that the sun rises over the heelstone on the summer solstice.
Cliche and teabag
Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 163 I’ve wanted to do a shot like this for a while. Unfortunately, this one is somewhat dull, composition-wise. Still, it’s a start, and I can always keep practising. Shame about the teabag, though.
