A Sunday Walk In September

All this week I have been made busy taking pictures for other people. Today I had a day off and it was so nice to take a wander over the fields near where I live and take pictures of one of my favourite things…nature. I only took one lens as I find sometimes it is best to limit myself to just using one, it restricts me but this can be a good thing. It makes me really think about the lens and using it to the max. I love my 100mm, it’s one of my best. I make myself stop mid walk and just look, look until I see what is there right in front of me.

What a mix

I have taken pictures of such weird and wonderful things recently, some personal, some private commissions and some joint ventures. From Proms and dance pics to bumps and hedgehogs! I find I don’t always have the time or permission to show all that I do as some people prefer to keep things private which is understandable. Here are some relaxed pics from The Colne Community School Prom night.

Distracted by FXcam

Owning an Android phone I have recently found various camera apps which are just so fun to play around with. One of my favourites is FXcam. Having owned a very old Nokia for years, the change over has been quite a dramatic one for me. It’s not always practical to have a camera swinging around your neck, this app is fun and so easy to use. I really love how it gives a Lomo look, to see other Android apps check this out http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/03/15/37-best-and-3-wtf-new-android-apps-games-and-live-wallpapers-from-last-week-3911-31511/
