    Mump in the Mist

    It’s been a while, so here’s a shot of Burrow Mump. This was taken last week, just before sunrise. The low-lying mist is just visible.

  • Follow the Path

    This is a view from the garden at Lytes Cary, a National Trust property.

  • The Golden Hall

    The sun was at the perfect angle to light up this cathedral architecture.

  • The Statue Corridor

    The Statue Corridor

    This is an example of a visual composition technique called “leading lines”… where the viewer is drawn into the photograph by a series of visual lines (such as those in the tiled floor, or the lights in the ceiling), creating depth and interest (hopefully).

  • The Door

    The Door

    I know it’s a simple shot, and not to everyone’s tastes, but I like this simple, wooden doorway. I wonder what’s behind this door?

  • Sintra Tower

    Sintra Tower

    There is a place in Portugal called Sintra, and specifically the Palacio da Pena. This blue tower is part of that incredible structure. It’s like some kind of Disney theme park.

  • Window Light

    I liked the way the light split into squares across the floor in this shot.

  • Stone Spheres

    Stone Spheres

    These stone spheres were quite the trend, centuries ago. You can find them in many of the large, old houses around Britain.
