365 - Park Life [349]*

2008.02.10
Morning shoot. Last night's frost.

A bright day and I need to watch my exposures. I need to adapt to the lighting but I'm still slightly brain-damaged from last night's bottle of wine. [Good wine.]


Bench study.

Too many folk...

... for the squirrels who were sticking to the trees.


First afternoon shoot. My neighbours.

Spotty dogs. Very photogenic.





Great pose.

As I got down & got dirty with the flowers & bugs, the colour intensified and my white balance changed dramatically. I messed up a lot of photos by not paying attention.

Second afternoon shoot.


Moving my position a couple of feet to the right would have made a better composition [the head would have fitted the neck better] but that would have meant stepping on a flowerbed which I didn't want to do. It still turned out well.

Nuthatch. Upside-down is not a problem.

Bird songs are everywhere and very symphonic. The virtuoso and very loud Song Thrush[?]. The twigs drove my autofocus nuts.

Lightning rod.

The Tits were rubbing their bills on the new shoots, I don't know why.

Last shoot. Nuthatch. The sun is setting. I've left it a bit late so it's getting dim very quickly. Looking across the park it almost looks misty at times, I can't figure out if its because of my eyes or the light. I couldn't photograph it, it turned into flare through the lens.




Flight study.

Another flight study.

Sunday evening.

I wanted to get some good dog photos today, so I'm happy.

A good photographic weekend.
