Playing The Long Game: Outdoor Photography With Telezooms

365 - take 2 - 328

There is only one world; the world pressing against you at this minute. There is only one minute in which you are alive; this minute here and now. The only way to live is by accepting each minute as an unrepeatable miracle.

365 - take 2 - 328

20 Apr 2014 9:44PM   Views : 551 Unique : 428

I've spent much of today blitzing the garage having got rid of some of the larger items in there ie. dead tv and wotnot. Now I've three bags of junk piled up ready to go one day but at least I can see the floor in there and am making headway. I've just thought that I wish I'd not swept the cobwebs down though - I could do with some for a still life I've got planned for tomorrow - hey ho............

I did do a few more splash pictures this evening though am rather miffed to see that a certain other EPZ member is doing much better than me Tongue

Keep going...... you'll catch up.

With no work to go to, I've lots of time to practice and experiment.

I will persevere but am despairing of getting any like your last blog upload! Yep - work does tend to get in the way. Plus today the sun is out, the sky is blue and it would be silly to stay indoors all day playing with the kit when I'll be stuck at my desk again tomorrow!

Yes Alison the fine weather has not to be wasted, we may not get enough of it!

The last image I uploaded was achieved with the help of the hidden button ...... Photoshop! Two shots blended together nicely and I intend to do more as it's easy so long as there's no change to the lighting.

I'm still trying to decide what to do - Sunday bus services means there's not a lot of options but I will at least leave the house soon and see the sun for a while!

Ah - I'd been debating combining some images sometime - maybe I'll get the kit out again later and see if I can come up with a couple that work Smile

Get your mix right, try adding some to the bottom container as well ( around 1/10th or so). Use a single drop until you get a plop to your liking then start with the second

Getting my mix right is definitely the challenge - it's still all a bit hit and miss as I'm constantly in a rush. I need to slow down and measure stuff out properly so I can get a bit of consistency from batch to batch!
