With this photo, taken in the garden on our Mallorca cottage, I was interested in trying to capture the harsh nature of the environment, and how remarkable it is that anything can thrive here. Not sure if I have fully realized this ambition, but I feel that it goes someway to telling that story.
Photo of one of the many cats which lives near where I'm staying in Mallorca. This is my first attempt at wildlife photography, and my first day playing with my new Canon EF 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 III Lens. I'm quite pleased with the way that this has turned out, I think the framing is good and the bokeh of the defocused BG is pleasing. I'm going to play around with this more and see what I can achieve.
Unfortunately I missed a few days, due to a combination of work stress and then illness, but back on it with something a bit different - this is the view from my airplane seat on the way to Mallorca.
I wasn't looking for a sunset sky photo today, and hopefully when I do go looking for them I will find something more interesting, but I found the lighting and colour on these clouds to be really beautiful, and the silhouette of the buildings made the shot interesting enough to be my choice of photo for the day
Not entirely thrilled with the results of this one, but try trying something different after a few consecutive days of closeups of things around my house. This is a church near to the office where I work, and I'm attempting to capture a somewhat dramatic sky and a foreground object without either element being clipped.
Shooting raw and being able to grade back some of the detail has helped a lot here, but I feel like the image has ended up looking a little processed and also a bit flat. Will have to experiment a bit more with this
