Geese n’ Hiils – 62/365
I was waiting for the moon to take a photo yesterday, as i’ve never tried to capture it. But it didnt come out to play! I looked all over, and I just couldn’t find it, so I didnt manage to get a photo for yesterday.
This one was taken today at Northala Fields, in Northolt, London, same as 63/365′s small planet pic.

All We Really Are is Squirrels – 52/365
I finally managed to find a squirrel in St James’ Park and get a half decent shot! I was following this little guy round for about half an hour, firing off shots as he went around digging up nuts and scoffing them. They don’t seem overly scared of people these ones, if you hold out your hand they’ll come right up to you and investigate. I’ll have to take some nuts back during a lunch time and get some more shots as they might stick around a bit longer.

Here’s Looking At You, Calf – 35/365
I’ve cheated today.
I didn’t go out with my camera, and can’t find anything else inspiring around me either
So, have decided not to just skip a day, but to put up an old picture I took at London Zoo instead.
I’ve still got a ton of photo’s I’ve not put on Flickr, majority of them i don’t deem worthy enough as I’m only trying to put up the picture’s I’m happy with now. But there’s still a bunch of good ones in there too.

This Whale, Failed. – 34/365
Today as my girlfriend was having a tidy up, she found this whale money box I bought her last year. I thought it might make a nice picture for today and I went about trying to think up a fun idea.
This was a long exposure set up with a blue jumper as a backdrop and a kitchen chopping board as the floor. I took about 50 shots trying to get one that i was happy with, in some the tourch i was using to make the ‘waves’ was showing up as a reflection to much in the whale itself, you can still see it in this one, but it’s not as strong as some of the others. Need to find a way to stop it being such a direct light, for free..
Touched up slightly in Aperture afterwards, lightening the whale a bit and adding a vignette.
1.4 / 20 secs.
Roll in, Roll out, Roll up to the Bunny Club – 22/365
I saw a mention of the bunnies being at Spitalfield Market today, so I made the mission over there after work and hunted them out. They were on the path when i got there, earlier on and over the weekend they had been on the grass, but that was looking pretty worn out so i guess they moved them.
Nothing to fancy today, 10 second exposure, had a few goes at it, and tried a HDR as well, but went for this one as it has a plane going behind the building in the background, you can see its blinking lights and trail.
My mission got cut short by a bunch of art students showing up to dress the bunnies in scarfs and hats and shooting some clips for a video project… Thanks. It was to cold to hang around and wait for them to leave so i just went home.
Nice Weather for Ducks – 20/365
Ducks in a river near Kings Cross in London. Not much else to say about it really
Well, lots else about it really, but in short I’d highly recommend anyone to attend a Shoot Experience if they have them near you. http://shootexperience.com/events/home/PUB
I went to the Capture Kings Cross event this weekend with a couple of my friends. None of us particularly good photographers, but we thought it might be fun to attend a photo treasure hunt for the day. There was a turn out of around 200 people, in 75 or so groups. 8 clues to work out and try to find the place referenced or take a picture to do with the clue to answer it.
They organise a few other events over the year, some the same idea of a treasure hunt, other you get clues to photograph which in turn tell part of a story which is put together in the end by everyone else’s photos as well.
It was really fun, and we actually won a prize for best photo answer to one of the clues which was good (not this photo).
