Day 17: 27-Oct-2013
Talbot Street on a Sunday evening - it's been too long..
Day 16: 26-Oct-2013
Waiting for the bus yesterday afternoon on my way to work. Didn't bring my camera since I thought I'd have no time to spare - and I didn't really (hence why this was taken in the few minutes I had until the bus turned up).
Have managed the build up a bit of a back-log over the last few days, so here's days 12-15 all in one go.
Day 12: 22-Oct-2013
Banksy "style" graffiti near one of the local pubs. It is a Banksy motif, but I doubt it's actually by him. I love the motif though, and it's one that's involved in my "if I were to get another tattoo"-plans.
Day 13: 23-Oct-2013
Autumn is coming. The weather has been warm, if not at least mild, for it getting to the end of October. But the colour of the leaves have started to change and they have started coming off the the trees.
Day 14: 24-Oct-2013
Student (I think) housing next to church.
Day 15: 25-Oct-2013
The Message.
Day 11: 21-Oct-2013
Thanks to the ever so "lovely" British weather there was no outdoors photography to be done today. It's been raining literally all day, and this was the (so-called) view out my bedroom window earlier today..
Day 9: 19-Oct-2013
Had a wander around town yesterday, and remembered the sculpture I'd seen "behind" Albert Hall a few weeks ago when I didn't have my camera with me. Would love to take photos of it again when the weather is a bit nicer. Massive mirror dish by the Nottingham Playhouse, with the Albert Hall in the reflection. The sculpture is called Sky Mirror and is by Anish Kapoor, and it's 5.75x5.75x1.08 metres.
Day 10: 20-Oct-2013
My freshly re-installed MacBook Pro. Will have the joy tomorrow of setting it up and moving files back from external hard drive. A bit of geekyness never hurts ;)
Got a bit of a mini-theme going for the last two days - old and battered..
Day 7: 17-Oct-2013
Walk past this building every Thursday on my way to church. It looks old and worn, and seem to be one of many buildings that are unfortunately being left to fall into ruin.
Day 8: 18-Oct-2013
The skip "graveyard" near work. Always full of old dumpsters/skips that look like they've seen better days.
The weather forecast isn't looking too promising for the next week, but hoping to get out and about a bit more during daylight over the (extended) weekend. Just have to hope for no rain, and then I'll be sorted.
Day 6: 16-Oct-2013
With it raining pretty much all day today, I wasn't expecting to take photos on my way home from work. But it had kindly cleared up by the time I left work (late as usual). A bit of reflection in one of the many puddles on the way to the bus stop this evening.
Day 5: 15-Oct-2013
50mm lens and some metal benches outside of the Theatre Royal - and hey presto! ;) A bit of abstractness achieved with shallow depth of field.
It's getting to that time of the year when it's dark outside by the time I leave work (especially since I never seem to leave on time), so I might have to try and get up earlier (the horror!) so I can get outside whilst there's some daylight. Another alternative is actually leaving my desk during my lunch break, for once, and go outside. There will probably a combination of the above - we'll see how things pan out :)
The last couple of weeks have been a bit hectic with different shifts, having water leak under the bathroom floor fixed, and having the bathroom and kitchen floor replaced. So didn't really get around to starting on 01-Oct, but I didn't want to leave it until November, so decided to start a couple of days ago. There's no theme as such to this - just me taking a photo every day for the next 30 days and putting them on here. Will aim to do it more regularly (like at the end of the day) rather than in bulk.
So, here we go :)
Day 1: 11-Oct-2013
This blue house amongst all the brick ones caught my eye whilst I was walking to catch the bus on Friday on my way to work. Actually had in mind to go photo something else - so I will save that for later in the month.
Day 2: 12-Oct-2013
Love my 50mm lens and the shallow depth of field - what else can I say? :) Oh, and despite my geekyness I still rely on the old "pen and paper" for list-making for certain things. That particular one is one of the to-do lists for my galleries (photos and portfolio), both of which still have many more photos to be uploaded to them.
Day 3: 13-Oct-2013
This is the view out of my lounge window. I'm sure there are more exiting views, but I love how the light hits the back of the buildings one street up. It's also a nice view to just sit and watch the clouds drift by - especially on summer evenings.
Day 4: 14-Oct-2013
The Samuel Hall, a pub in Sherwood. It is in part of what used to be the Sherwood bus garage. Took this whilst waiting for the bus this evening after having missed my stop on the way home (probably because I paying more attention to my phone than where the bus was going).
