As Summer draws on it gets harder to choose the wildflowers for these collages. There are no buttercups, daisies, poppies, "fireweed" and a whole host of beautiful flowers. Hopefully they will get a chance in July's collage, but of course they will be even more flowers battling for the collage by then! But I am now half-way through this calendar project, and November was done last year :)

The year so far can be seen here;   http://www.lightanddreamsphotography.com/gallery/8057142_2Tkfp#524865489_gekpy

Late Edit; The background image is a tiny plant called "Speedwell" which covers the ground like a blue mist on the nature reserve near my home. The left centre image is a close-up of one of the individual flowers. By the time I produce the final calendar I hope to have a key to all the images featured
johnloguk > 16.6.09 - "Because the Night"

It's been a while since I did any night photography, it isn't that easy when it doesn't get dark until about 11pm. I took lots around dusk, which I normally prefer to total darkness, but in the cold light of the morning this is the one I prefer. It is an iconic view, one I've done before many times, but no two shots are exactly the same after all. I'll post some of the others as I get chance. Have a great day!
johnloguk > 3.6.09 - Silence is Golden

It's been a long time since I had a sunset for my Daily, I hope it has been worth the wait. I originally went out for a walk along the river and got some nice wildflower shots, but this presented itself on the way home. I don't like having the sun in the frame, it can make the image noisy, fill it with flare and doesn't do wonders for the eyes, but I hope it adds to the image here. This view of Lincoln Cathedral is from the south-east, with the observatory tower of the Castle on the extreme left of the shot. There weren't many clouds in the sky, but there was a low haze that gave this wonderful golden glow. A group of birds flew over at just the right time too.

I've had lousy hay fever the last couple of days, which has made staring at a computer screen pretty painful, so apologies if I didn't comment on your pics. Thanks for all the kind words on my truck pics and postcards, you are a wonderful bunch of people :)
