Day 107 Been away for 3 days so no long stories (I hear sighs of relief) Took loads of photos and only been through some of them.

Day 106 I left things later than intended today and when I did finally think to take a photo it was starting to get dark! Sitting on my bed , looking out of the window at the garden in the fading light, I noticed my bedside lamp reflecting in the window. "That looks cool" I thought. So here it...

Day 105 Had a friend come over for the afternoon with 9 holes of golf and he stayed for dinner. Photography took a back seat. Dinner was paramount 7 hours later the lamb was ready

These are also on my 365 so you may have seen them already

KPMG Building shots from yesterday in black and white as requested by @wreckdiver1321 Quite pleased with the results.

Day 104 A bit of a lazy day from a photography point of view. Guilty of watching the Masters and the day has just flown. I will be reluctantly selling my "kit" lens - the 18-55mm that came with camera in the hope of making enough to buy something else. I haven't used the 18-55 since I got the...

This is a really cool building facade (IMO) And I spotted a castle in the distance - never knew there was one here. Will visit at a later date. And it seems some scaffolding has managed to break free.

I thought the light reflecting off the KPMG building and the ominous clouds were interesting.

Day 103 I went into town specifically to shoot this building which houses a Mexican restaurant. I drove past it yesterday and liked the colours. In the end I have a series using just the one image and once again trying some HDR. As shot With a bit of "HDR" after creating 2 further...

102 cont. ... I love this one of a young girl's legs. She looked terribly sad sitting on the concrete overlooking the river. Boat launch decorations This lonely bench and the lonely girl should have hooked up And to end 2 shots of the same jetty

Day 102 Well I was frustrated all day trying to think of a photo to take. Pacing up and down pulling my hair out at the lack of inspiration! I decided to hop in the car and see where it took me - with only my walkabout 18-105mm lens. Didn't seem any point in taking any more gear - change...

Day 101 I think it is 101 OK I got a chance to shoot the same band I shot on day 45 - I was not too happy with the initial shots on day 45. Tonight's effort is much better. But … somewhere along the line I changed settings and don't know where But before that I tried one of those "twist the...

Day 100 Not a repeat - as MM pointed out to me I was getting way ahead of myself (and the rest of you). Today really is day 100 and yesterday was day 99 ... Right first off in New Zealand we do not use fast drying paint for or road markings so we paint around our puddles. The leaves have...

Scott Murray purchase of a dry cabinet got me thinking … as strange as that may sound. I am all into "what should I buy next?" as far as lenses and camera gear goes but am I protecting/looking after my existing equipment properly? Should I not be buying stuff for "preventative maintenance"...

Ok here it is in full format Tasted pretty good too!

Day 100 I have been quite busy with some research (getting somewhere slowly) so photography has slowed down. I also want to start being a bit more arty farty (suspect the coming winter will help with this) so instead for the normal shot from me I tried a long exposure. I tried one at 2.5 secs...

Day 99 I am going to visit and have dinner with my son. Will take my camera and I am sure take some photos but do not want to feel under pressure and will only get home at about midnight. I took a couple of shots where I bought my lunch so will post one here to relieve any pressure I might feel...

Quick HDR with above after watching a 3 minute youtube video. Not great but that is because my PS E11 skills still need attention Lots wrong with it I know - like over burnt foliage on right bank - but at least I know a form of HDR can be done with no software. I'm bearing all here people.

Day 98 Not much on offer today because I want to try some HDR with no software. First image is a of prescription drugs I haven't taken. I detest medicine in chemical form and over the years there are hundreds of prescriptions that I haven't bothered to collect and then when I do I am...
