Horizon - This exercise is to explore different positions of the horizon and and how they affect an image.
Placing the horizon line at the top of the image purely draws attention to fore ground and near distance subjects. It heavily depends on foreground interest to give impact. I also find it contains the image within a defined boundary.

A Sequence of Composition Take 2
Taking the exercise one step further I saw a fairly unique custom built machine on display and moved in using the viewfinder.
First I went in close but felt it was not showing the machine in the best way...

A Sequence of Composition
The object of this exercise is to try and use the viewfinder to compose the shot... not wait for it but try to find the ideal shot and record the process. By shooting the nearly moments it is hoped to see the process as it develops.I started this sequence with around 25 shots and I edited down to the 18 you see here. I decided the ones with arms and legs obscuring the shot didn't really count...
The sequence started with a crowd gathering to see a rare Indian motorcycle being started at a classic motorcycle open day...

Attenborough Nature Reserve New Year's Day 2011
New Year new blog.
This blog will be a record of my experimentation in photography and hopefully my record of work for a BA course in photography with the OCA.
I am combining this with my new Flickr account, to also showcase some of my work. In the past the images I have thought to be my best have become lost in the melee of the joint Flickr account which we set up years ago to share our holiday and general pictures with friends and family.
I took advantage of the sales to buy a new tool, a Canon EOS 5D MKII to ensure I have access to a full frame imaging tool again. This means that Jules now has full access to the EOS 400D which was the workhorse D-SLR, and so she has now set up her own Flickr account as well to showcase her talents.
New year , new blog, new start...
