I know things have been quiet from me on the blog front lately - this is due to being exceedingly busy at work, as well as illness at home. But I have at least been keeping my Photo 52 project for 2018 up to date.
Now we're a quarter of the way through the year, I thought it'd be a good idea to cast my eye over the shots so far - and please bear in mind that I do take more photos than those that are selected for the 52 project.
As I predicted earlier on in the year, the photos are all from the local area, with half of them coming from a small area of seafront barely five minutes from my house. This speaks more about my ability to get out and about and taking photos than anything else! But I also think it shows that a variety of images can be gathered from quite a limited location. In the six images I have a dramatic storm, a sunrise and sunset, geometry, street and long-exposure light streams.
How do a select images for my Photo 52? Well, I tend to pick ones that are different enough from those already in the album for starters. For instance, I managed to get some great light streams last week, but since I already have a light stream from a couple of weeks ago, I decided on adding a night-time shot of Brighton instead.
I've even got a couple of reasonable stilllifes in there - which I usually resort to when I've run out of days to shoot and am rummaging around for something to upload! The first one is from the camera club "liquid" competition, while the latter was set up to shoot my latest camera purchase - a Lumix G9. I hope to pen a future post around the new camera.
I've got a couple of planned excursions out in May and June, so you should hopefully see a bit more variety in the Photo 52 as the year progresses!
