Just a bit of fun

Well I’ve been having more fun with the Nik Collection from DxO. Just messing about with photos and seeing what I can get. That’s it really 🙂

Captures Of The Week (5/6/19)

After a bit of a hiatus from my blog, I’ve decided to upload my favourite photos from the past week. I’ve also been experimenting by using a raynox 250 on my 70-300mm lense, with mixed results. It works well when it wants to!

I realised after posting this that I included photos from my previous captures of the day (doh!). I still think they’re captures of the week too, so they’ll remain.

Someone asked me for some photos of our dog… I didn’t skimp on them!
A shot from Gunwharf Quays. The water in the pool was a very strange colour, which wasn’t fully captured in this image.
Looking out to sea. Taken at Gunwharf Quays.
A very close up shot of a single lupin flower.
Beautiful blue skies, down by the sea.
Another from Gunwharf Quays. I was really interested by the curves of the structures, which I think was accentuated by the 11-16mm lense.
A false colour shot of some lupin flowers.
And finally, a macro of a poppy, just bursting out.

Captures of the Day (30/5/19)

We had a trip to Gunwharf Quays yesterday. The light was beautiful and I was able to get several good photos out of it. All shot with a Tokina 11-16mm lense.

I loved the reflections in this pool, which was an unusual colour.
I was interested in the curves of the buildings, which was accentuated by the lense.
Number one. This photo very much lended itself to a 2:1 crop. I really liked the strong lines.
I initially thought this photo hadn’t come out as I’d liked, but after going back to it and messing in Exposure X4.5, I managed to get something I liked.
Number two. I was very pushed to decide which of these looking out to sea I preferred, so they’ve both gone up.
