Tina hosts this week challenge (here’s a link to Tina’s original post) with this brief – ‘Show me some of the things you’ve learned about photography or any subject you choose.’ That throws me straight in to this image which I took last week….
Continue readingSH is the challenge host this week. He has chosen the theme – ‘Quiet Hours’ – and how we can show these hours in pictures. When I first read SH’s original challenge post I immediately thought dawn, dusk night time etc. However, I’ve since come around to looking at this in a different way, working out how I use quiet hours to benefit me, especially as a stock photographer.

I took this today in Weston-s-Mare. Much as I like doors, this artwork has made these dull, plain doors more interesting. Having said that, the doors add something as well. I wish I could have included more but there was a car parked in the way. Posted for Dan’s Thursday Doors
