It's been a while since I did any texturing in photoshop.. So why not here with this quack quack image?
I love the golden tones and these are because it was such a lovely sunny day. Two more ducky shots coming.... ;^)

The beautiful Lancashire countryside in England. Part of my 50mm project too - I'm keeping this lens on. Love it !
Landscape image ... 50!!mm ... I like it! :]
pack horse bridge
This is one of my personal favourite pictures that I’ve ever taken. It follows on from yesterdays Flickr upload of the Pack Horse Bridge in Wycoller, Lancashire, England.
For reference see here:

I love the angle, light and dof so much. Great composition.. Ok, enough!

a view from holy island
Another olde from my archives.. but the processing was done today. Completely fake light as I wanted a more "sunset" type image here - although this was probably taken around midday!
Even with my novice photoshop skills, I think I did a good job here... Comments and advice always welcome! :-)
another bug!
This is an old shot from 2010 .. I'm so amazed how well it turned out. I wasn't using a macro lens or even a magnifier - hence the hefty crop!
Nice details, even if I do say so myself :)
parcevall hall
Taken on a rather gloomy and typically English day in north yorkshire. It rained all day!

To complete todays trio .. here's another olde shot from Stanley Park in Blackpool, Lancashire.

An olde picture I shot not long after getting my SLR ... I'd like to think I could do better now! But I still liked this one.

This was taken in Bluebell Cottage Gardens in Cheshire. I hope to go back here again someday during the height of summer as they've got so many beautiful flowers here.
Thanks for viewing todays uploads :-)
fenced in
Taken from a rather wild and bushy woodland footpath that ran alongside farmland. I thought I'd try and mix in sepia with this heavy dof pic..
