Sky photos always interest me and living near a busy international airport most of my life I have seen a lot of great views of nice skies with interesting plane trail patterns in the sky. This one isn’t the most interesting by a long shot but I felt that the winter branches coupled with the orange plane trail looked interesting enough to publish. It is often the case with photography that we walk past potential photo opportunities every day of our lives, if only we had walk by and seen the subject from a slightly different angle we might have seen the photo in our minds. This photo was taken back in January 2006, nearly twelve months ago (how time flies) and I was going to be ten minutes early to meet a friend so rather than hanging around outside his house till he was available I just walked slower and took my time and found this photograph by simply looking a little more at my surroundings, you never know what you might find!
Large Bonfire Flames
My Uncle recently brought a farm in the small village of Horbling, in Lincolnshire. The house dates back from the Tudor times and is very interesting but needs a lot of restoration (currently uninhabitable). We had a large fire where we burnt a lot of the old wood and trees that have been cleared. You may or may not know but I really love fire, in a visual and photographic way of course though. It just makes for some very interesting photos like the one below. I also captured an image of what looks like a woman dancing in the flames, I might put that online one day for you.
