I have so many pictures of this guy. I work from home and its a delight to stop and just watch him go about his business outside the front of my house.

My editing catch up continues. Took these in Brighton in January last year, my backlog is finally under a year for the first time in about...a decade?

Some farm land near me has some fun old buildings


I don't know if I prefer the colour or the black and white so I will just post both



Some more from my Brighton trip last year.

I looked at your pictures and could tell what you were trying to convey before I read your text, so you nailed that. As for the editing, that just comes with time (I still suck at it), I posted some youtube tutorials in the other thread as well as some styles to apply to help you get what you want with less editing.

This thread is very laid back though. So if you want more than just than the occasional 'nice' comment then you will probably need to ask for feedback when you post them.

I also did this in B&W, but think colour works better

Are you using a tilt focus lens for this? It's got major 'tiny model city' vibes. Excellent shot.


Thanks. Just a standard 35mm prime.

I live next to a forest now, so that's all I take pictures of. That and birds.
Trying to capture the beauty of a forest is HARD, you see something amazing but its just too noisy to make a good image once you get home. Well practise makes perfect.

Here's a bunch of practise.

I am a huge proponent of black and white for forest work. Removing the colour layer gets rid of a lot of muddiness.

Been trying a little of that but the beautiful greens and browns that catch my eye often end up very similar greys and it doesn't work.

I'll try and focus more on form and shadow, with the longer days and harsher sun of summer maybe I'll spot more scenes, been weeks of mostly overcast recently.

This isn't in the snow, and my recent snow shots I converted to b&w, but whatever



Love some good browns

Lovely, thanks for sharing.

Love the forest shots. Especially these two.

The local forests are my first choice when I just want to take some photos and chill out. There's always something unique to find.




Love a good branch.

And yes. I'm taking my camera with me every day with the dog, 99% of what I take gets chucked but it's very zen.
On weekends I'm trying to go out with the tripod and put in a little more effort and slow down a little.


How did this look in B&W?
