365: Easter and the end of April

Beardy Man!
Another busy couple of weeks with a bewildering array of images to choose from!  As usual what I've ended up with is a rather diverse mix of still life and family stuff - with of course a dead thing thrown in for good measure.


My son Tom features a fair bit this time - starting with the "beard" that he grew for a friends paint balling party.  When he's not shooting things up he's revising hard (?!) for his GCSE's.  A couple of other shots show some of the work we've been doing in the garden - including getting rid of some out of control leylandii and renovating our old Victorian railings.  Tom was also responsible for art directing the shot of him by the fire where we are burning the bits of tree that were chopped down (a platoon inspired pose for his Facebook profile).


Finally there are a couple of documentary style shots - one taken at Castle Acre over the Easter Bank holiday weekend and the other taken at a football tournament my daughter played at in Great Yarmouth.

365 Project update: dead things, dancing, more flowers, more yoga and beer

1 April - that Friday feeling!

Another big catch up Blog session for the 365 Project - and I have still yet to miss a day!  There is lots to photograph outside now with spring well and truly underway and I have enjoyed using textures in photoshop to produce something a bit different from my normal style (or perhaps this is my new style!).  This week has been very hectic - with a wedding, an engagement session, a yoga shoot and a family portrait session but its been great to be back in action after a relatively quiet winter.  I'm still plodding away on our new company photography site which I''m hoping will be live by Easter.  Watch this space...

365 Project update: food, flowers, earth hour and the tooth fairy

21st March: country life
Once again I find my self glued to the screen when I should be doing something else and giving my eyes a rest.  But I needed to get the last weeks worth of photographs edited and sorted to keep up with the 365 project.  Once again a mixed bag: a pulled out tooth, a rather healthy lunch, shadows and a bit of posing...

22 March: The tooth fairy

23 March: Shadows in our office

24 March: What a healthy lunch!

25 March: The Look

26 March: Earth hour

27 March: Not quite too big to be carried.

28 March: Grape: Spring continues...

29 March: Buds

365 Project update: Signs of spring!

Another rather random set of images - most snatched at odd free moments - but I think the overiding theme is that spring looks like it's finally on the way!

365 Project update: totally random moments!


I must admit that I’m really enjoying my 365 project – even if I’m only just keeping up by the skin of my teeth! Making the time to take a picture a day – however random or strange it might be at the time takes me back to my early days of using a digital camera back in 2004 when I merrily snapped away at anything and everything that took my fancy and posted them to Fotopages (where they are still all online incidentally). Inevitably as the photography side of our business has taken off having the time for personal projects has diminished somewhat. But now I’m back on a roll and loving it - as you’ll see from the random selection of images from the last couple of weeks of the 365 project – with everything from sausages to yoga!

Believe it or not the daffodil did not wilt like the ones on the vase - perhaps our skull has strange properties!

Taken of my yoga teacher Sue who needed a quick shot for some promotional material.  I'm really looking forward to designing her website and doing a proper shoot.
