Is Spring Finally Here?

After what seems like a very long winter, is spring now finally here? The flowers below seem to think so! It has started to warm up and we've even had a few days of sunshine in the south of England so it all looks promising :-)

The photos below were taken in my back garden at home. The first 2 were shot using the Macro Lens Adapters.

Hope the sun is shining wherever you are...

Getting Creative

I take quite a few photos (although regular readers of this blog may notice that I haven't taken too many recently!!) and rather than them just sitting idle on my hard drive I have recently been looking at creative ways in which to use photographs.

I have made a couple of videos using animoto but have always been really interested in photo mosaics so I thought I would give it a go. So far I have produced a framed Christmas present for a couple of good friends and also a birthday card for another friend.

Unfortunately, I did not have enough of my own photos for the 2 projects below but a quick browse of Facebook gave me plenty to work with. These both have a resolution suitable for printing out in A4 so luckily the photos that you use to make up the mosaic don't need to be a very high resolution.
