Bath, 2018





















Peonies Life Cycle

I photographed these Peonies over a few weeks from bud to end.
I have edited these differently in lightroom from super saturated 1950s bold colour to subtle balletic colours more akin to still life paintings.
I still love the black and white most and need to get more confident with colour and how to use it.




































Vintage Lens Filters

Trying out the vintage 1970s rainbow spot and star lens filters on the 85mm canon lens. I found these in a bundle at a carboot sale and throught they would be fun to play with which they are.
Quite gimmicky but the effects are great especially in manual mode where you can create lots of out of focus patterning. Not sure how to use these other than in a disco situation.

I want to look more at lens filters to create effects in camera mainly for blurred sections, soft focus and adding more texture.

Autumn Shadows in the park. Like how the sun hits the bench on the second image.










Clowns in Window

In a window at the end of St Thomas Street, Wells is a collection of wooden puppets. Made by the puppeteers who live there.
Colour and Black and white.
