Yesterday I went for a long walk with the camera and took a variety of shots. Then today I have picked some of the better ones and used various photoshoppery on some of them to try and make them a little more interesting.

Bearing in mind I don't posses any major equioment or any seperate lenses, I feel quite happy with what I have achieved. Plus I managed to wile away a good 5 hours of the day


Straight shots of flowers










Manipulated shots








Other pics

I took all of them. All within a half hour walk from our house. Some of them have been manipulated in photoshop to give different textures etc.

Thanks LA.

When I am more mobile I will have ago at what you suggest, but being only 5 days from giving birth I didn't want to venture too far from home

Its so nice to hear all your compliments, it makes me happy

Regards the dandelion it was more luck than anything else, I only have a sony cybershot P150 so there wasn't an awful lot of judgement/technique/talent involved in taking it.

Regarding joining the clud, I can't afford the equipment and it would be far too technical for me then

Still, its nice to hear that I am doing ok

I really, really like this one. What a great choice of crop - beautiful colours. I'd like to see it without the noise and a bit more saturated (I presume you added the noise/grain?) but it's a cracker none-the-less!


Here is the original pic, with the colours a bit more saturated
