It snowed here this week. In other news, my cat lacks a sense of adventure.

That bridge looks well flimsy!

That bridge looks well flimsy!

Weird perspective I think. It’s not quite so flimsy up close

It made up for the lacklustre sunrise shot which I didn't even bother trying to edit

Had a visit from one of my nosey neighbours the other day

Hi neonwilderness, I don't understand my eyes wrt this image, when I first looked at it I thought it was out of focus, but later it seemed very sharp, is it a multi exposure?

Hi neonwilderness, I don't understand my eyes wrt this image, when I first looked at it I thought it was out of focus, but later it seemed very sharp, is it a multi exposure?

It's probably a combination of a few things:
Long exposure to get the water and sky motion blur
Four exposures merged into one HDR image
A bit of orton effect (The Orton Effect Explained) applied to soften things and add a bit of glow

Aha, yes that explains it. I have used the Orton effect myself without knowing that is what it was called.

[strung out]

I took this picture at sunrise a month or so ago while out running with friends. I love that you can see the head torches of my running buddies in the middle of the picture. We're just reaching the top of Dundry Hill, which overlooks Bristol - you can see the telecommunications tower on the right from most of the city.

Just had this large comet or space junk come overhead and burn up. It made a huge rumble sound like thunder!

My camera died a year ago, today for some reason after a year of poking it periodically it came back to life and I'm so fucking happy to have it back.

Graffiti artists under a bridge along the Leeds to Liverpool canal. They redo them quite often. There's a bloke who lives on the other side of the river, under the bridge, in a tent who has been there for about a year so far.

It's still amazing to me to see cities by the ocean. Like another world but not. Stay tuned for cities in the jungle when I go to darwin soon !
