Just quickly updated my landscape gallery – I thought it was getting a bit over crowed, but I think I may have added more than I removed…heigh ho!

Winnats Pass, Castleton, Derbyshire (48/365)

Went to Stockport on business today. The quickest way, despite my TomTom’s protestations is via the Winnats Pass (sometimes spelt Wynatts) just outside Castleton in the Derbyshire Peak District.  Again, another shot with the Canon G10, converted in to Black and White (as it was that sort of day )

Saint Pancras Station, London (47/365)

Okay, enough already!  I am now creating a category for my Saint Pancras stuff.  I am beginning to feel though, that whacking something in to black and white and adding a bit of grain, is my device for covering up poor camera work (e.g. camera shake)

Bunhill Fields Cemetery, City Road, London EC1 (46/365)

Having previously poked a camera through the fence I had the chance to walk in the grounds of this historical place, where the likes of Blake and Defoe are buried.

St Luke's, Old Street, London (45/365)

Was quite taken with this church (which I think is now used as a rehearsal venue), however with just a monopod  and a G10 I don’t think I have done it any justice.

The Definition of Love

I took this shot for the Valentine’s Day card that I made for my wife using my wedding ring a couple of years ago.  Very simple set up – a wedding ring, dictionary, angle poise lamp and judicious use of blue tack.

Not one photograph but three for today..all gratuitous Lake District shots…

Not sure if any of them are of particular merit, but they are my triple whammy 365 offering.

Wyke Waterfall, Grasmere, The Lake District (44/365)

Grasmere Fence, Grasmere, The Lake District (44/365)

Grasmere Boat House and Swan, Grasmere, The Lake District (44/365)

Snowdrops (43/365)

A shot of some snowdrops in Williamson Park, Lancaster taken on day 43.

Cyanotype Rose (42/365)

Cyanotype was (is?) a early 20th century photographic process that involved getting messy with chemicals - luckily we have Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to do it for us most of the time.

Once again, scanned image of a rose flattened out on my flat bed scanner.

Pink Rose on Black (41/365)

Demonstrating the longevity of roses from Marks and Spencer’s here is a scanned rose from the same bunch that was used last weekend.
