Do visitors to my blog need to know what goes on to produce the image that I put on here? Generally, I've avoided it. There's deliberately not any file info on my images here apart from its actual file name normally (and I'm not even very good at organising that). To me it's just not … Continue reading Technical Stuff
Rusey Cliffs and Lundy
When I went out yesterday it was a little cloudy but bright. As I got to the beginning of the track that leads out to the coast path, where the view over the ocean opens out, I could see that there was a weather front just threatening to travel up the Bristol Channel and perhaps … Continue reading Rusey Cliffs and Lundy
Port Isaac and Heligan
I mentioned visits to both Port Isaac and the Lost Gardens of Heligan on my Thursday Doors post a few days ago, saying that both are really popular these days (and a visit to a garden was not really about doors). Port Isaac is a famed fishing village on the north coast, while Heligan is … Continue reading Port Isaac and Heligan
Surprise
I logged in to my Twitter account this morning to find a lovely tweet from Lucy, super-talented creator behind the Silence Killed the Dinosaurs blog. This was a surprise because I normally get an email from Redbubble when I make a print sale and I hadn't seen this one. Then I remembered that Lucy also … Continue reading Surprise
Thursday Doors: Boat Houses
This could be an occasional niche within the niche that is Thursday Doors. So that's a nice niche niche then. Sorry. Anyway, Cornwall, being almost an island on the south-western end of the British Isles mainland, is of course a seafaring place and a lot of the small villages grew up, both in population and … Continue reading Thursday Doors: Boat Houses
Sharp & Incoming at Crackington
Is anyone tired of abstract sea and waves pictures yet? A slight difference in this one. With my sweeping panning movement I seem to have more or less matched the speed of the nearest waves, thereby keeping them relatively sharp compared with the rest of the scene. This has given me an effect that I … Continue reading Sharp & Incoming at Crackington
Barn Doors (for people)
The sort of doors that I'm likely to come across are those in a more rural and less populated setting. Basically, I'm not often found in areas where a lot more humans like to gather, build towns or cities and live fairly close to each other and therefore the exposure to fancy doors protecting the … Continue reading Barn Doors (for people)
Abstract Additions (and more normal stuff)
I deliberately haven't mentioned print stores for a while. Using the internet is a constant stream of tick box and permission enabling at the moment, together with appeals by newspapers for subscriptions and finding the actual content you went for within the site, probably hiding between the increasingly strident adverts. Even so, I have to … Continue reading Abstract Additions (and more normal stuff)
Church on Sunday
The title only refers to the fact that it is Sunday when I'm posting this picture of a church; in fact I'll be down at the beach scouring it for plastic and fishing industry waste and cleaning it up rather than sitting in church singing and asking for any supernatural help with the problems we … Continue reading Church on Sunday
Thursday Doors
There is a thing I keep seeing on Twitter where people post pictures of doors. It's a running series by Norman Frampton on his blog at Norm 2.0 "Thursday Doors is a weekly feature allowing door lovers to come together to admire and share their favorite door photos from around the world." This may have started … Continue reading Thursday Doors
Offshore Mists Two
I posted a straight black and white shot of the Cambeak headland at Crackington wearing its little offshore cloud yesterday. Regular followers will know I've been trying the alternative abstract intentional camera movement technique on pretty much everything as well, so of course I tried it here too. My alone time - well, at least … Continue reading Offshore Mists Two
Offshore Mists
Yesterday morning was looking to bring a fine day. Even by 9am on a Sunday families were already occupying their little territories of the receding beach at Crackington as the tide was heading for one of its high points for the day. I had headed down there a little earlier than normal to give myself … Continue reading Offshore Mists
