It seems that after a break and a couple of Open University courses I’m once more photographing flowers.
Here’s my latest.
Raindrops
Raindrops. A reminder of rain once the the skies have cleared.
Summer llama
One of our llamas waiting for rain. Taken with a Samsung S7.
Thistle seed heads
This is a photograph taken in October 2017. Autumn my favourite time of the year for black and white photography. This one has been processed in LightRoom with an infrared filter.
Squirrel at Llanerchaeron
This is one of the squirrels at Llanerchaeron having a snack.
Black and white pony
Taken with the Lumix GX8.
Black and white semi-feral cat
There have been several semi-feral cats that have visited us over the time that we have lived in our current home. All of them have been either completely black or black and white, and all of them have had a very well-defined sense of personal space.
I usually see them at a distance while carrying water or feed to the ponies, or when I’m doing other work around the place. Showing any kind of interest in them, even just looking too long in their direction, results in a quick disappearance.
More recently there has only been one regular visitor and on his last visit I happened to get this lucky shot as was outside with the camera just as he decided to pop up in the long grass in the ‘front garden’.
This was taken using the Lumix GX8 and the m.zuiko 75-300mm lens. It was only the fact that I was using a long lens that meant that I captured this particular image through the gap in the fence, without encroaching on his personal space. The result is one of my favourite cat images.
Monochrome Dandelion Clock
One of my favourite things to photograph is the dandelion clock and its seeds. This one was taken with the Lumix GX8 and Olympus 60mm macro lens. It was a lovely day, but still quite breezy.
Monochrome Power Lines
Taken with the Lumix GX8 and kit lens.
Teasel in black and white
This image was taken with the Olympus M.Zukio 60mm lens.
