Bluebells in the Shire... #Shropshire #Photography #ECK #ClassicMono #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Lumix
A high-contrast, black and white photograph of long, thin aquatic grass swaying on the surface of dark, rippling water. The grass appears as delicate, luminous white strands that flow diagonally from the bottom left toward the upper right. Light catches the edges of the water's surface ripples and the submerged blades, creating a textured, ethereal effect against the deep, shadowy depths of the water. The composition is moody and abstract, emphasizing movement and the play of light on organic forms.

I'd forgotten how much I loved that Rodinal 1:25 look - I mostly shot Tri X @ 400asa with that dev :-)

Bluebells at Worfield.
A carpet of bluebells in Chempshill Coppice, Worfield. The fragrance was almost overpowering as I followed a footpath through this woodland near Bridgnorth, which I make a point of visiting every spring. Half the world’s bluebells are to be found in the UK, with... #Shropshire

Photography in your metaphorical back yard is at the same time a delight and a challenge. Revisiting places again and again as the seasons change and the light shifts.
Here in Tick Fen this corrugated hut is a constant Fenland Muse.

My photo shows a frontal view of a buff-coloured Minoan pottery jug with a dark-red, stylised octopus painted beneath the dark red pouring spout. The jug has a rounded body with very short neck with out-turned rim, the body tapers downwards to a slightly turned out flat base also painted red. On each shoulder there’s a small chunky loop handle. The octopus is stylised and looks cartoon-like with a vertical dumbbell shaped body, with two large circular eyes with central red dots staring out at the viewer. From the top of the head emerge eight suckered arms. Four arms hang symmetrically downwards on each side of the body, writhing and curling at the tip. There is a similar red octopus on each side of the jug not shown in my photo.

A collection of six black and white photographs arranged in a grid, showcasing a moody, street-photography aesthetic. Top row: On the left, a close-up of a person in a beanie and leather jacket holding a Sony camera to their eye. On the right, a multi-layered, double-exposure-style street scene showing a person standing in a city reflection with architectural elements and soft light flares. Middle row: On the left, a gallery wall titled "OUTSIDERS" featuring a grid of black and white photographs and text snippets. On the right, a high-contrast close-up of a frothy pint of Staropramen beer on a table next to a camera lens, with soft bokeh in the background. Bottom row: On the left, a brutalist architectural shot showing a tall concrete tower rising behind a lower, rectangular building with a grid of windows. On the right, a low-angle shot of a curved concrete highway overpass against a cloudy sky.
Had a great Glasgow photo walk with my friend Jim yesterday! We also caught Marc Davenant’s Outsiders & Simon Phipps’ Brutal Scotland at Street Level Photoworks. Both were brilliant. I’ll be sharing a blog post on Monday with some of my shots from the day.
