Gilded with light

Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 211 The main hall of Norwich Cathedral, taken from near the altar. I was amazed that this came out as sharp as it did, considering it was hand held at 1/9 seconds, ISO 200 (my mistake). It’s shots like these that make [...]


These cloister’d halls

Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 210 Some of the corridor (I want to say cloister; I don’t know if that’s right) around the central square of Norwich cathedral. I wish I could have cloned out the rubbish bin convincingly, but I couldn’t. Note the slightly odd-looking verticals [...]


Slats

Graham Binns posted a photo: Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 209 A building on Prince of Wales Street in Norwich, lit by a solitary sodium lamp. I just liked the pattern.


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

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.
