Photo A Day

Self Portraits

Title: The Mackintosh Cupboard
Location: House For An Art Lover, Glasgow, Scotland
Camera: Canon EOS 5D MkIII / 50mm EF f/1.4 USM
Notes: I love the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, so it was a pleasure to revisit the House For An Art Lover in Glasgow today – I last went in 2001.
Title: Dreich In Dunoon
Location: Dunoon Pier, Argyll & Bute, Scotland
Camera: Canon EOS 5D MkIII / 50mm EF f/1.4 USM
Notes: After a sunny patch in Rothesay this morning, it was rather dreich by the time I got to Dunoon mid-afternoon. This is the view of the now-closed pier, taken from the ferry which docks at a gangway nearby.
Title: The Bench
Location: Swanage Pier, Dorset
Camera: Canon EOS 5D MkIII / 50mm EF f/1.4 USM
Notes: I loved the contrast between the old peeling blue paint on the bench and the yellow lichen on the pier planks. I opened up the lens wide for a shallow DoF.
Title: Tracking Homo Sapiens
Location: Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset
Camera: Canon EOS 5D MkIII / 50mm EF f/1.4 USM
Notes: Footprint on the beach at Burnham-on-Sea, found while taking a walk this evening along the sand.
