Shot of the Week

Theme for the week was Reflection which is a good choice as it’s something you can easily find, easily create and – if you think laterally – interpret more philosophically. In the end I settled for a simple reflection of me in the kitchen window. We have a number of spot lights in the kitchen…

Shot of the Week

Three images to show you this week, all shot with different cameras. The theme of the week was Sweet or Sour and when I spotted this bottle of Apple Sourz in the kitchen I knew this would be the shot. I tried a number of locations but couldn’t find a clean enough background in our…

Shot of the Week

As I mentioned last week, the 52 Weeks theme for this week was Winnie the Pooh. So I decided to try and do a portrait shoot with my two little WtP characters. Not easy as they are only 3cm tall, but I did buy some small LED lights on adjustable bendy wires recently (with food/…

Shot of the Week

The theme this week in the Flickr 52 Weeks 2016 group was Shadows. Which opened up the possibility of all sorts of creative interpretations. However, a busy week both in and out of work, coupled with a lack of sunshine for large parts of the week meant that in the end I settled on the…

Shot Of The Week

Another nice open theme this week, literally, as the 52 Week theme for Week 4 was “Outdoor”. Sadly the weather in the UK had been a bit grey and dull of late, but on Thursday morning I noticed that it was going to be a clear night so I decided to take my 5D MKII…

Shot Of The Week

For the 52 Week Group this week, the theme was Out of Focus so I posted this shot of the topiary conifers at work, taken with my infra-red camera. I also had a couple of pieces of good news about some of my other photos, but I’ll cover that in my next post. For today, I’ll…

Shot of the Week

Have managed to pick up the pace a bit with my photography over the past week or so. First challenge was Week 2 of 52 Weeks in 2016 with the theme of ‘Dark’ – set by me.  Given that it’s winter in the northern hemisphere I figured this would be easy for many people, but…

Slow Start to 2016

I didn’t post my usual Shot Of The Week yesterday, because I didn’t take anything worth posting! The theme for the first week of 52 Weeks 2016 was “New Beginnings” which I bagged right after New Year with this screenshot from my phone (I need to point out that the balloon photo is not mine,…

Festive Fun

Quick one today, just to say that I hope you all had a great Christmas and Santa brought you all the pressies you were hoping for. The theme for Week 52 of 2015 was “Festive” so here are a few shots from the last few days of festive fun at chez Chapman. On Thursday I’ll…

Shot of the Week – Food and Drink

One thing I’ve learned from the food photography course is that a decent food shot takes time and planning. Trying to take pictures of cooking (the theme for the week) whilst actually cooking is therefore never going to yield a masterpiece. So this week I settled for a simple collage of food prepared on my…

Shot of the Week – Be Square

The theme for Week 49 in the 52 Weeks Project was Square Format – a nice and open theme that everyone can easily accomplish. You can view the gallery of entries here. What was interesting was that some shots looked better than others in this format. The reason why some shots were better than others…

Shot of the Week

A quieter week this week on the photo front. The 52 Week Challenge was Interior design which unfortunately came a week too early to get the Chapman household Christmas decorations featured. Instead, my shot of the week was taken at the Norfolk Towers Hotel in London. Mrs C and I had a day trip to Brussels…

Shot of the week

I managed to combine two challenges into one photo this week with the 52 Weeks theme of “My Day . . .” and an informal food challenge of “Coffee break” After finishing the 30 Days to Better Food Photography course, a few of the participants have set up a new Facebook group so we can…
