Facebook Photo Merge

A few months back, I read online (can't remember the site at the moment) about taking long exposure photographs of your computer monitor whilst scrolling through a series of photos within a Facebook album. Guess the idea is to somehow merge a few photos to give you the general theme of the album within one image.

Thought it was an interesting idea so had a quick go to see how it would turn out.

Here are some of my test shots. They are all made up of 2-3 photographs from the same Facebook album.

Winter Walk

After the festive season excesses, I really needed to get out for some exercise. Thought about going for a run and then decided on a nice walk in the country instead ;-)

Here are some of the pictures that I took on my travels.

Happy 2011

Happy New Year and hope that you all enjoyed the festive period. Lets hope that 2011 is a good one for all of us.

What better way to start the year than some seasonal light painting.

Amazing what you can do with a couple of £1 solar garden lights!!

Fototastic 2010

Well, it's nearly Christmas and another year gone by in a flash.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you all and many thanks for your support over the past 12 months. I hope you all enjoy the festive period and look forward to seeing you here again next year.

Like last year I have compiled all of my 2010 posts in to quick video recap.

Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree!

So here we are again...Christmas time. Thought I'd better take the mandatory shot of the Christmas tree as I do every year! It's a big one this year - I swear it looked smaller when I bought it!

Just for a change, I took another shot with the camera still on the tripod and zoomed out during the exposure - It created a nice little effect.
