Cathedral Green II

Colour image of a flower in Wells Cathedral garden made with a Sony Alpha 77.

Another image from the Wells Cathedral set. I think I prefer this one - it has better depth of field control than my previous post - but there are some problems with the composition.

Cathedral Green

Colour image of a flower made at Wells Cathedral using a Sony Alpha 77.

Another summer outing - this time we spent an afternoon at Wells Cathedral, taking in their Mediaeval Fair - which wasn't as good as last year's, to be honest. In an attempt to rescue the situation, I managed to spend a few minutes photographing in the gardens.

Shapwick Summer II

Colour image of a flower made at Shapwick Heath NNR using a Sony Alpha 77.

Another image from the Shapwick set. Again, the composition is a bit iffy, but the colours are nice.

Shapwick Summer

Colour image of a wildflower made at Shapwick NNR using a Sony Alpha 77.

A few weeks ago I found myself at Shapwick NNR, which is not one of my usual summer haunts, even though this blog might give the impression that I live there. Anyway, I took along my Alpha 77 with my macro lens with the intention of shooting some of the flora.

Not sure about the composition of this image, but the bouquet is nice.

Je M'Apple

We have two apple trees in our garden. This year we've had plenty of windfalls - this is one of them.

Fine and Dandelion

Mono image of a dandelion made at Clevedon Court using a Sony Alpha 77.

I like making images of dandelions - I find them very photogenic. This one is from the Clevedon Court set - perhaps the gardeners should get a grip?

Back to Black and White

Mono image of a flower made at Clevedon Court using a Sony Alpha 77.

I've been making monochrome images this summer, its just that none of them have made the grade for this blog. Anyway, I'm happy enough with this one, which came from the Clevedon Court set.
