Daffodil time lapse
Hannah bought a bunch of daffodils so I decided to take a time-lapse of them opening up. Bonus points if you spot my two cats jumping up on the table! Bad kitties. The first frame was taken at 5am on the first day and the last frame was taken at 7pm on the second day, withContinue reading “Daffodil time lapse”
Some macros
As I wrote recently on my blog, I bought a Tamron 90mm macro lens. Up until today, I’d only published a boring photo of a piece of Velcro. But over the last few days I’ve taken a few photos with it, and here are the results. This is a screw. Bonus points to anyone whoContinue reading “Some macros”

Love lost

Yellow roses
These yellow roses were in a vase in my parents’ living room. The room wasn’t dark at all – the sun was streaming in the window but the roses were brighter than their background.
Some 35mm macro shots
I took these photos with a 35-70mm lens, using an additional macro lens. A pink lily Cotton reels A crystal of aragonite Unfortunately the developing lab treated my negatives pretty badly, as I wrote about on my blog earlier today. Here’s a close-up of some of the scratches on the second aragonite photo, which IContinue reading “Some 35mm macro shots”
