Autumnal Abstract #01
An abstract image of a ‘Lionel Fortescue’ through the use of camera motion during exposure. Today I wanted to share how I am progressing in my pursuit of a photograph as an ‘impression’ of a time and place rather then ‘record’.

Well firstly let me start off by wishing you all a very happy New Year. One of the images that made it into my Top 10 for last year was a piece entitled A Line of Crocuses which I originally shared with you in March. I’d like to share an alternate composition of the same subject with you today.
A Floral Image | Diamond Patterns
A close-up of the delicate petals of a Centaurea montana flower set against a soft green background. The image I am posting today is a follow-up to one I posted earlier last month although taking a different perspective on the flower also known as a Bachelor’s Button.

Study in Purple
The first from a series I will be publishing from my recent trip to Spain in September. Here I have published two images that are almost identical apart from a subtle difference in focal points. These were both shot handheld @ f2.8, so have a depth of field of just a few millimetres. There was…
