Digital Photo A Day #123(“Perch”)
I really like today’s shot. I really got into shooting wildlife. But it is more than just that today,
I love the sand texture of the stone. The nice green of it and the way it contrasts with the red of the … I guess it must be a Robin? I like the contrast between the top of the sculpture and the curve underneath, and I love that I did an ok job on the depth of field. The depth of field for me is still something that is partly luck. I really need to get to grips with it a bit more, so its not left up to fate.

Digital Photo A Day #122(“Crumpled Bravery”)
Just a quick shot today. Not much thought about it, its more the symbolism I liked than anything.

Red Eye gives away your age.
If you’re like me you’d have thought that red eye is a problem, not something that you would want to have in your photo. Well it turns out that some smart fella has found a use for it, to tell your age. Yep your age.
Red eye is caused by the light being bounced off the blood vessels at the back of the eye. There are red-eye prevention techniques that have a pre-photo flash to get the iris to constrict and reduce the red-eye effect. It turns out though as you get older the muscles that constrict the iris are weaker and don’t do as good job. So basically the more red-eye that appears, the older you are. Its probably not that simple in practice, read more about it here at the Discovery website.
For me I still think I will continue to try to get rid of it!
Wow what a rainbow
Digital Photo A Day #121 (“Blue Flower”)
More flowers today. I chose this for a similar reason to yesterdays photo, the colour. where as yesterdays has a distinct lack of colour in the background, this has a nice pattern of red and green all nicely blurred as to not detract from the nice violet of the flower.
Life is short, I went back the next day and this flower was shrivelled and dead.

Digital Photo A Day #120 (“Yellow Flower”)
Another naturalist photo today, I keep wanting to say naturist 
. There was no particular reason I took the shot, but the main reason I chose it over the other shots I took that day was the colour, it has the cut out sort of look to it, sort of black and white with just the yellow of the flowers showing through, I can assure you though that it is all natural colour
