Views from the front yard

[Chris Dodkin]

Lovely overcast lighting today - went on safari to the front patio with the 100mm macro

The second shot is really good, sort of soft but sharp. Nice.

Did you take a guide?

The last two are my favourites Chris. Nice and abstract and high-key seems to suit them well.

With the theme of from My Front yard/back yard/front window etc. perhaps a good inspiration on documentary from that very place is the book "The World From My Front Porch" - LarryTowell. http://inmotion.magnumphotos.com/essay/frontporch perhaps it would be a good thread if there isn't one already

Maybe the next theme even. I guess we should close the last one. What do you think?

 

[Kev Pugh]

As Newbie I'm not sure without trolling forever into the past to see what's been themed before.

I think it's actually a good theme, we become very used to our immediate environments and probably don't see what is changing each time we look around it.

This is a better link to the book itself

[Hamish Gill]
