Sepia Scenes – Oak Tree

I got to post a Sepia Scenes photo today.  It isn’t the one I intended posting because the one I had in mind isn’t quite ready.  I’ll post that one next week.

I’m afraid I can’t say how I achieved this one because I did it a couple of weeks ago and I can’t remember now.  I posted the original shot also.  It was taken this summer while tucking into a lovely picnic.  I couldn’t resist taking a photo of such a beautiful oak tree.

SkyWatch Friday + I got an Award!

posted by Babs on Friday, 5 December 2008

Lately I have been posting photos that I took on a walk we took a few weeks ago.  These photos were also taken on that walk.  I took about 150 photos that day, so there are plenty more left.

I loved these very tall trees.  They looked beautiful against the blue sky.

Thank you so much Paz and I’m sorry it took so long to post.  It was a lovely surprise!

SkyWatch Friday – Lovely!

posted by Babs on Friday, 7 November 2008

A photo I took on the way out a couple of weeks ago. It was a lovely warm day (for the UK) and a lovely blue sky – to say nothing of the lovely cows!

Notice the lovely ‘dry stone’ walling that Yorkshire is famous for.

Skywatch Friday

This first photo was taken last week.  I was amazed by the totally clear blue sky for late October.  The next one was taken yesterday, through our window.  We do get lots of rainbows where we live.

These photos were taken on my iPhone on the way to the eye hospital last Friday.  It was the most unusual sky ever.  Some of the photos, though far more beautiful than these, were so dark that it looked like night time so I didn’t post them.  I so wish I’d had my camera on me.  The iPhone isn’t meant for this kind of photography and doesn’t show the beauty of it at all.

I actually shot three different days this week, but will post them later.

Sepia Scenes

This is my contribution to the new photographic theme ‘Sepia Scenes’ I took this in the summer and used it for a SkyWatch photo.  I tried to make it look a bit old too.

SkyWatch Friday

As promised, these are a few shots taken on our day out last Sunday.  I thought the first one was very fitting for SkyWatch.  This is the same reservoir that I have photographed before, but from a different angle. I loved the way the sunlight was twinkling on the water. This certainly is a beautiful time of the year.

There will be more shots from this walk coming  very soon.

This is a shot I took on the same walk as my previous post.  There was a beautiful ray of light shining down through the trees, but my camera didn’t capture it.

Because I am still a big kid at heart, I couldn’t resist collecting a few of the conkers.  Just for photographing you understand ;O)

This photo was taken last night, from the garden.  It seems to be a lovely spot for sunsets!
