Blackheath Sunset

I promised myself I would go out and about, and I did. The evening sunset was just glorious over Blackheath because of the Heath being so open which means you are able to see a lot more of the sky than you would in another part of London or another city centre.

I had to have two attempts at capturing the best of the Sunset here in London, I've a sample of my first attempt on Flickr but I think if I post any of the others from that "collection", it may ruin my current small reputation in photography! The second attempt I'm much more proud of any is available here. Here's a selection of my best:

One I didn't expect to get in Greenwich Park

I think this was a worthwhile experience, I'm definitely going to try again possibly somewhere more exciting! Flowery pictures to come on this blog at some point this week if I get round to it, but uploading them to Flickr now if you want a sneeky peek.

Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Blackheath

Earlier on in the week I spent the morning walking around Blackheath and taking pictures of whatever caught my eye. Below is a sample of my best, but you can see them all here on Flickr. I never noticed how much of Blackheath is pretty wonderful from a photographers perspective. Lots of animals, shapes, colours and more (including random things such as "Animal Rights below!)

Industrial Revolutions, amazing!

I was really impressed with this BMX bixing video I found earlier on in the week. It's got some wonderful camera angles good enough to be excellent photos. The composition of this is brillant. The music fits with it well.

There's nothing I can fault with this video. Can you? Well done Danny and the production team.

I've got a plan

At some point this week I'm going to go around my local area in South London and capture the best it has to offer. My most recent contact on Flickr amongst others have inspired me to illustrate the delights of South London. You'll be hearing from me this week about my trip out and more.

One other thing I wanted to share is a online photo editor called Pixlr O-Matic. It's really simple to use and creates great effects. I used it below to edit my "Be Nice or Leave" picture from my Garden in the Summer set on Flickr. I hope you like it. Click on it for it's full size beauty.

It has made a massive difference I can tell you!

Neglect & Garden Pics

Sorry for neglecting you, my lovely Slice of Photos readers. Been away and now I return with pictures from my humble garden as well as others on my Flickr account which I will share at some point.

I'm pleased with myself at the outcome of these images, especially the picture of the bee on the plant below. I've always wanted to capture something like that and now I have - brillant! No editing was needed... Click on the picture to enlarge it in all it's glory.

My others are slightly less impressive but still worth a shot. I've included a couple below but for the full range, please check out my Flickr photostream.

I think of this picture above as the interlocking ways of life.

Enjoy the rest of your evening.
