OOps who forgot, well didn't get around to blogging yesterday?? Hey ho never mind, not the end of the world. Yesterday I popped over to Kirsty Wiseman's blog, I had to smile as I could feel her energy for life whilst reading her posts.
After work yesterday I popped over to an industrial park on the outskirts of Truro to start taking images for my project. Once again I had images in my mind but quickly realised that in order to get them I would have to speak to the owner of the Jaguar garage and ask him to arrange the cars as I wanted, not as he wants them and to turn off a lot of the lights that are on the cars - I think the chances of him agreeing to that are a great big fat ZERO lol. So I abandoned my ideas and went with what I had.

So this was the first one
Second image, clean lens and moved across the road, I am now stood with the car behind me, better this time as it has the empty feeling I wanted and no blobs :) much less busy.
and the b&w version
First lesson, check lens before taking photos, this will avoid blobs around the place!! Secondly as much as I love light trails I really didn't want any in the image, so not great but still converted to b&w to see and will print off for college! The b&w version.

So back out tonight to a retail park.
Today I visited It is Safe for You to Love blog. Right off to work now. Have a good evening everyone. x
what if you offered the garage the photos you take...and smile sweetly... he might just do as you ask lol! I like the colour image... you get a sense of tranquility x
ReplyDeleteLOL don't think even I could pull that one off Louise :( - tempted to try though lol. xx
DeleteGreat photos. They look good in B&W
ReplyDeleteThank you Viv. xx
DeleteI think I like the B/W versions best. And its a good lesson in lens cleaning!
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne.
Snap Stewart, yep guess it shows I haven't had the camera out for awhile!! x
DeleteWhat setting did you use to avoid blobs? I get them all the time!! Have a good week. Diane
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, use a large aperture ie f11 + to stop the bokeh effect, as well as dusting the lens lol. xx
DeleteThanks will give that a try.
DeleteI see you said clean lens but that is not my problem mine is the setting! Diane
ReplyDeleteHi there - there is a sort of before and after shot of the fallen Apostle on wikipedia.
