Recreating last Summer

Originally uploaded by jbwan.

Shot a photo almost identical to this one last year but the poor lily flower was covered in small flies. This year however, Rose Nymphe is shown in true splendour having opened for the first time on Sunday morning.

Wandering around my garden again with a tripod and a zoom lens, what must the neighbours think? 🙂

Searchin or sellin? April 18, 2007

For me, a comment against one of my photos in Flickr is like an applause from the biggest audience. I regard myself as the most amateur of photographers but I’ll persevere. For others, some whom I know, the quality of their work is set for a bigger stage. Until now a comment or a request to add to a group was the most you could get from Flickr. Enter Flickr Cash with the ability to offer up a great thumbnail search facility and also allow others to purchase your work through the service. I only tried it out briefly and while I found the search facility a much better service than Flickr’s own search I could not see how to sell my photos. Not that anyone would want to buy them anyhow. The better news is that Flickr Cash will soon be out of Beta and since I registered as a Beta user I will enjoy free access for life. After Beta there will be a monthly charge! There’s still time for those who would like a free account though, so hurry on in…

I tried to capture what was a fabulously sharp sun, setting behind light cloud. I fear I didn’t do it full justice.

The Day Before Tomorrow

Originally uploaded by jbwan.

Upon waking up this morning, the garden was covered with snow, my wheelie bins were strewn across the yard and my fence was blown down. We need a better term than “global warming”!

It faded away so fast that I’m sure I missed loads of good photos. There are some more on my Flickr account if you’re interested.
