Posts in diary (page 15/60)

Hope I’m not getting boring!! The last 6 posts have been about photography, and this is no exception. I’ll save some bandwidth by not actually including any pictures this time – how about that? Starting week 4 of my 365 (which in itself is a bit scary), and haven’t particularly struggled so far for inspiration […]

For no particularly good reason, I have decided to mirror my Flickr 365 set on a ‘proper’ 365 site, in this instance: 365project.org I like 365project because it has a calendar view that shows you the picture from each day, and it allows e-mail submission (but haven’t tried that yet!) [Edit – note on flickr […]

As I’ve mentioned before, I’m working my way through the Practical Photography’s DSLR Skills Bootcamp. This month is about creative metering and exposure, and the assignment is to take a long exposure shot of a moving car, but panning it so the car is sharp and the background is blurred. So I spent lunchtime today […]

Managed my first week of 365, and have more or less uploaded a photo every day! The only doozy was the “bags 2 school”, which I think I can improve with a bit of cropping – see below. [Edit, now using cropped version!] I’ve also entered a photo competition, but I’m not going to say […]

I’ve add a slightly more convenient ‘in’ to the 365 photos, although it does require Flash. Point a browser at www.eutony.net/365 to see the pics, and that page also has a direct link to the set on Flickr (the less than memorable www.flickr.com/photos/66189293@N00/sets/72157626684135070/). I’ve also added it to the left navigation panel. Aren’t I kind? […]

I started a “365” project yesterday. The idea is that you take a photo every single day for a year, and at the end of the year you can look back over the year, and have a record of highs and lows, and changes. You also should improve your photography by taking photos every day! […]

I’ve been taking some random still life photos this evening, and I couldn’t resist posting this one here. [EDIT: This photo has been lost to the mists of time! It was on flickr, but I can’t find a local copy anymore!!]

Phew, what a week. Absolutely manic at work at the moment (which is a good thing really – better than having no work), and No. 2 son has been an absolute tinker recently. Here’s when he’s woken up and required some intervention (milk/water/change/snuggle): Mon: 04:30 Tue: 02:00 Wed: 02:00 Thu: 06:50 (hooray!) Fri: 00:00 Sat: […]

Right, have tidied up my ‘Links’ section over there to the left. Now they are all fine and dandy and up to date. I’ve introduced a new “Photography” bit, ‘cos that’s what I’m into most at the mo, and culled some of the old “friends” links, and added some new ones. If I know you […]

Was taking some photos of number 2 son at the weekend. I finally got around to uploading them onto the computer, and realised I need to do a bit of post-processing. While I was sharpening the image, I spotted me taking the photo reflected in his eyes: I’m wearing a red shirt, and you can […]
