Anxious Silence

Winter Spookyness

Posted January 11th, 2009 18:44 by Bob

Went for a walk round Burnham Beeches in the freezing cold to get some wintery/misty photos. Wanted to try and get something a bit dark and otherworldly. I’m moderately happy with some of the shots, they look spooky enough (in my head anyway), hopefully in a subtle manner. They all look much better full size.

Was a bit dissapointed, took loads of shots of the mist coming through the trees but when I checked them later the mist was hardly visible. Did follow a couple of Muntjac’s around for a while but then some shouty twats with a dog turned up and scared them off before I got a chance to take a photo.

All 10 shots up on flickr.

Here’s my favourites…

Took today off, mainly to take Karen to an exam, but also because I damn deserve it damn you. Had three hours to kill while examinations took place so went into Reading and experimented with the concept of NOT BUYING STUFF because I have a fucking mortgage now. Lovingly stroked some nice design books an CDs then spent a couple of hours taking photos. I like the idea of restricted creativity, usually I’d visit somewhere I actively want to go where I expect to find some decent shots. I forced myself to try and find something interesting to shoot in Reading town centre (been there? dull as fuck). Quite happy with the result.

Full set is here.
