Daily Photo Weekly Wrap-Up: Week 69

It feels like it has been a long time since I wrote a weekly wrap-up post, but it has only been a week. This week was the travel portion of our move, England to the US. Now we wait for our household goods to catch up with us. This week’s images were taken in both locations and of course, in the air:

Welcome to this week’s installment of my daily photographic record. Posts in this series will be photos from the week before, roughly Friday through Friday. This, once a week, wrap-up post will publish on Sunday. The photos for this post will be in a gallery format, they will have all been taken on my phone. The captions on the photos will be an indication of the photo-editing software used to edit them, or simply “as-shot” for those that are unedited.

Writing a weekly wrap up with a gallery is a way for me to gather my thoughts on what has caught my attention in the previous week. It will be a way of filtering through what I am thinking about photographically. I’ll also be able to come back to these posts and look at what trends emerge over time.

As with all my posts, your comments are welcome. I appreciate your interaction with my work here on this blog. It is my intention to publish in this series on Sunday. Every Sunday that is possible. Looking at my year, I already know there are some weeks where I will not be close enough to my technology to make a post possible. In an effort to keep this project pleasant for myself, I won’t be attempting catch-up posts.

Hope to see you in the comments below and in this space next week!

Cheers!

Daily Photo Weekly Wrap-Up: Week 68

I was happy to be able to wander this week. I was also happy that two of my images worked well in monochrome, that’s a style I don’t work in as much, so I’m always pleased when I have a nice result:

Daily Photo Weekly Wrap-Up: Week 67

This week felt a little bit all over the place in terms of my photography. I would say this week was more about the documentation of what is around me that really processing what I am seeing:

We are in a new place temporarily, so a lot for me to take photos of this week. A whole new neighbourhood of wildlife and postboxes for me:

Daily Record Weekly Photo Wrap-Up: Week 65

Most of the photos I shot this week had a faded filter of some sort added to them, giving them the feel of memory rather than real life:

52 Week Smartphone Challenge: Week 22

Well here’s a thing that happened this past week:

ISO 100 f/2.2 1/33sec 4.2mm

It’s odd to look around at what has been our home for the last four years. We arrived as strangers and are leaving during strange times. The photo above was shot on my iPhone and edited in Luminar. It has the Luminar Look, Quay Fade, applied at 47%. I also edited the vignette.

Your thoughts on the photo or edit are welcome below.

Cheers!

Join me for another week of going round and round the village! Not that I see a lot of people but the lost property is beginning to pile up, so I know folks are out.

52 Week Smartphone Challenge: Week 16

This week’s theme, Shadow, is one that could be interpreted  in many different ways particularly at this time. I call this photo, Stepping Into My Space:

ISO 25 f/2.2 1/1166sec 4.15mm

What’s going on in this photo? Quite a bit. I’ll divide it into pros and cons.

Pros: I’m out on my daily allowed by the government walk, and it’s a beautiful day. The other shadow is my walking partner/teenager and we are both healthy. This is a friendly dog.

Cons: This is not my dog, it’s not on a lead, and I am both allergic and scared of dogs.

For me, this photo has a bit of conflict and tension in it. The original file lent itself well to a square edit, so I went ahead and used Hipstamatic to create the image. After an initial  shuffle of random filters, which the app will do for you with the touch of a button, I settled on a combination I liked and then did some additional edits to come up with this final version.

Your thoughts and comments are welcome below.

Cheers!
