Well, when you eventually pluck up the courage to have a photography
exhibition, you have to come up with some eye grabbing titles.
I had gone out at dawn in Sweden one morning last winter to try to capture
the dawn……but, frustratingly, couldn’t get above the all encircling
forest, so I waded through chest high snow to the edge of the lake. And
produced something quite different to what I’d planned!

This image looked quite interesting in colour, but I seem to be going
through a monochrome phase at the moment. Used the ‘aged photo’ preset in
Lightroom ( have you noticed there is a beta version of Lightroom 3 ?)
It reminds me of a Kodak paper I used when I was still at school called
Royal Bromesco. Today you don’t get your hands wet, though seeing a nice
image appearing in the developing tray was more fun than computer
processing!

This morning we went down to Shambellie near New Abbey. The autumn colours
were beautiful. but almost overpowering…..so I tried converting a couple
to grayscale – perhaps because of the dramatic light.

Often, when I flick through photo mags in shops, they seem full of ultra
long exposure, apparently oversaturated images….usually featuring milky,
unnatural looking water …..and, because that’s not my type of image, I
put the magazine back on the shelf.
So I was much surprised to see such intense purple tones in the evening
sky over the loch at the bottom of our garden. I’m not sure whether I like
it, I only know that how it looked!
