Dramatic skies

I really like how dramatic the sky looks in this photo, with dark clouds and the bright orange setting sun creating silhouttes and shadows

Weekly Photo Challenge: Saturated

Image

I thought I’d have another go at the Weekly Photo Challenge with this week’s theme being ‘saturated’. I thought this photo was fitting, what do you think?

This photo is of the church St Martin of the Fields near Trafalger Square. I like the contrast of the light and dark colours of the tree and building against one another and the great sense of height that you get. But best of all I think I like the bright blue sky as the backdrop.

I love the intense colour of these Dahlia flowers and the rich detail and texture they have too. These have sprung up in our garden recently and seem to grow quite easily.

Each Peach, Pear Plum

Posted on September 5, 2013 by myeye1

A short time ago I posted a blog about cherries that we had from our neighbours’ garden this summer and I mentioned that we had a couple of fruit trees in our garden too; a pear tree and a plum tree (sorry, no peaches, not in this country anyway). At the time the fruit was just beginning to grow and now after a long hot summer the fruit is finally ripe and ready to eat – well the plums at least anyway, the pears still need a little more time.

I thought I’d share a few photos of the fruit as they look so good. The plums we have are called Victoria

My sister’s father-in-law is visiting at the moment and was pleased to be able to pick the ones that were ripe. They were really soft and juicy and enjoyed all round

Our pear tree grows pears called Conference. The ones in our garden are almost ripe

I’d love to hear what others have in their gardens at this time of year

Blue view
I always try to look at things differently when composing a shot to try and make things more interesting. I like this photo as it gives the view a frame and the colours are brightly contrasted against the dark silhoutte.
