Tranquility – A selection of images from our #ThursdayTheme

 

 

We asked to see your ‘Tranquil’ images for last week’s #ThursdayTheme . It’s been lovely looking through your photographs, they certainly evoke a feeling of peace and harmony. Enjoy!

 

Our #FridayFoto this week is this absolutely stunningly tranquil image by Char Ronster. It was chosen by our resident expert and friend, Michael Carver.

 

 

Here’s what Michael had to say about Char’s image:

“It’s Bodiam Castle in East Sussex and I’ve seen countless photographs of it, it’s a popular spot for photographers and you can see why. Although I’ve seen a lot of shots of this castle, I haven’t seen many as good as this, ok….I haven’t seen ANY as good as this.

Look at it!

The colours, the reflections, the misty atmosphere, the composition. The conditions looked perfect and you have certainly exploited them to get the most of out your shot Char. It’s a beautifully balanced exposure with lots of details in the shadows and great colours. It’s timeless too – this shot could of been taken yesterday or hundreds or years ago (although I doubt cameras would be sophisticated enough to take shots like this hundreds of years ago – “Ye Olde Nikons” just weren’t up to it lol).

Anyway, it’s an amazing shot and one any photographer would be proud of. That’s the thing with popular spots, even though other photographers have been and had a crack, it’s always worth going to get your own take on a location, you just never know what the conditions will be like and if you are lucky you’ll come home with something of this quality.”

 

Thanks so much to all of you who shared an image with us this week! They are fabulous!

Purple – A selection of images from our #ThursdayTheme

 

 

Purple is a pretty funky colour. It is steeped in mythology, legend and history. Did you know that the colour purple has sent men to their deaths?! You can read more about that right here.  But in the meantime, check out these amazing purple images!

 

Our #FridayFoto is this beauty from Gary Hill!

 

 

Here’s what Julie had to say about Gary’s image:
“Someone who clearly knows colour and light like the back of his hand. Both are used so expertly here.
That purple dress is made for a photo shoot, right? But teaming it with that stunning auburn hair is just a visual treat. The skirt almost looks like it’s alive. I love the textures there.
My eyes are taken up the dress to the gorgeous model’s face and her downcast eyes take me right back down again and around. Such great composition and posing!
Just fabulous Gary – thank you for sharing it with us!”
