Day 35
Had a hell of a drive home today managed to get back despite the weather and major hold ups on the M4! Thank The Lord for the roses that Pam had otherwise I have no idea what I would have taken!

Day 34
Now I know what the big problem of doing this challenge is. Remembering what day it is! I guess I should rename the files as I go to remind me!
Today I had a drive down the Shannon Estuary as it was midday the light wasn't brilliant but I hopped out of the car and had a walk down to the beach bit took some OK photos. This one I picked as it's different. What caught my eye was the the pattern the lines made on the stones and the way they kind of linked up.
More good news because of this project I have started posting back on to my deviant art account! There are loads of photos on there and I will post a few of the others that didn't make it on to this blog. That's the hard thing at the moment taking a few good pictures and only posing one!
Oh I best put a link to it!

Day 33
A few years ago when I was in Ireland I had a few days and went to Torc Falls in Kerry back then I didn't have the camera gear I do now so had an idea how I wanted the photo to look but just couldn't get the shot I wanted.
Well this time I have a ND filter and there had been a lot of rain so the falls I where fairly active.
The greatest compliment today was a fellow photographer was watching where I was taking shots from and as I moved he dropped in after me! I chatted to home later about slow shutter speed and actually gave him advice on how to achieve this kind of shot!

Day 32
Oh start of the month start of something new then. Well I've never done this before tried to get a real sharp photo but as I'm tired lots of red lines so went for an out of focus to give a more arty look. Not edited at all so here we are then
This challenge is certainly getting me to think more about what I'm going to do and I think I'm improving as I'm doing more different sorts of pictures. I hope you like this.

Day 31
Well that's month one done! It's been a bit of a roller coaster to be honest and after a day like today I feel I, getting somewhere!
Had a really horrible trip over the crossing was fairly rough and then had a 3 hour drive to get to the hotel and then thought bugger need to take a photo. I read practical photography magazine on the ferry and thought a body part photo might be cool so I wrote how I felt right at the moment I was going to take the photo and here it is.
Converted to B&W and cropped.

Day 30
A trip to Ireland this week has already opened up an opertunity that I've had countless times and have never done, take a photo of the old road bridge.
I can't remember the amount of time I've driven over this bridge and seen countless pictures of this too! As there is only one view point of this bridge that's easily approachable the view is the classic and tried and tested shot. The only difference you get is weather conditions and how you take the shot.
Well as you can see it was grey and dismal so I thought a nice long exposure to blur out any vehicles on the bridge and try and get a shadow on to the water.
The exposure is actually a 2 minute shot using a ND filter at f29.
Well here it is!

Day 29
Work day today staying in Whitstable which in the sun is nice and even at night it's ok but when it's wet and just yuck there's nothing to see! So I'm glad I took a quick photo of a really nice church in Chartham.
I was hoping to get a bit of time today but as usual the world plotted against me so I grabbed this photo on the way to the corner shop to get my lunch. It's defiantly one place I would like to get back too at the right time of day to get a more rewarding picture.
