On oldie from 2010, no doubt obvious to many .... The Lloyd's building (also sometimes known as the Inside-Out Building) is the home of the insurance institution Lloyd's of London, and is located at 1, Lime Street, in the City of London, England (Wiki).

I feel this works really well as a square crop, in fact I much perfer it to the original much wider version. Looking for square compositions really opens your eyes, I can see myself considering the crop at time of composition which is something I have not done before.

Have a great evening all!

EDIT: Sorry, something weird happened with the upload which stopped your commenting. I think its fixed now, but I had to delete it and reupload so its scrapped your faves, sorry. Thanks.

This was taken a couple of years ago on one of the many fine beaches in Pembrokeshire, Wales. I am still digging through those archives at the minute, as I have not had chance to get out. Fingers crossed for some better weather on Saturday as am hoping to get out then.

Have a nice evening!

I was contacted a few weeks ago by the Western Mail, a national Welsh newspaper with regard to using one of my shots in their 'Postcard from Wales' section. It features in today's issue. :-)

This was taken a couple of years ago at Blea Tarn in the Lake District. It's situated in a small hanging valley between Great Langdale and Little Langdale. It was actually one of the wettest photography trips I can remember, with the several days away spent mostly spent in the car. This was taken on our way home ... typical! I can't be sad though as the several times I have visited the Lake District the weather has been rather idyllic.

Oh, and I thought it about time I updated my icon :-)

I will catch up with your photostreams this week, have a great Sunday!

Still experimenting with square crops at the minute - I am rather liking the format.

This is Kirkstone Pass which can be found in the Lake District, Cumbria. It connects Ambleside in the Rothay Valley to Patterdale in the Ullswater Valley - (A592).

Almost the weekend! Mine will be spent decorating my son's bedroom, much to his delight. Have a great one whatever you are doing!
