Day 6:2013 - Threads


Day 6:2013 - Threads, originally uploaded by Yatty LRPS.
I was hoping to go to Gauntlet Bird of Prey Centre today but unfortunately it got very cloudy after lunch, so we took a trip to Qarry Bank Mill instead.

We go to Quarry Bank quite often but only go inside the mill maybe once a year at most. My daughter seems to have forgotten she has ever been there before, so all seems new to her.

I love that they demonstrate all the stages from traditional methods to modern water powered machines. It is definitely a great visit.

The Bear's Head in Brereton in Sandbach.

A long exposure with a car coming past just at the right time. Also managed to capture a plane's light trail too.

Finally another photo made it to Flickr Explore

My apple photo made to Flickr Explore yesterday. That means Flickr thinks it's some of the most interesting photo posted yesterday.

The pressure is on to come up with another "interesting" photo !

A rare night out for my husband and I, so we went to see Skyfall. Knowing that we won't come out of the cinema till 10 to midnight, I thought I should take a photo of my delicious cheese cake.


This was taken on my phone and processed using Pixlr Express and copyright text added usingPhoto Editor.

Day 2:2013 - A is for Apple


Day 2:2013 - A is for Apple, originally uploaded by Yatty LRPS.

Trying to capture the texture of the flesh of the apple.
This would be a lot easier if I have a lightbox, instead I used the flash to light the apple from behind the camera.

Day 1:2013 Let's Twist Again

I am attempting another 365 again this year. This means I have to take a photo everyday of 2013. I will also attempt to blog the whole process, which I may not keep up.

I took this using Canon S95. I love the size of it and it has functionalities of DSLR.

I used aperature priority mode with this with exposure compensation of -2/3. The camera was balanced on the road side cabinet.
