Not taking photos for several days seems to take its toll on me, I miss it rather a lot.

Even in the darkest parts of the night, there will always be light cast from the cities, towns and villages. ”Light pollution, also known as photo pollution, is the presence of anthropogenic and artificial light in the night environment. It is exacerbated by excessive, misdirected or obtrusive use of light, but even carefully used light fundamentally alters natural conditions.”

Photographs aid us in remembering our experiences in life. They are like an extension of our memories, a visual window into our past. In the digital age people forget to live, so fixated on making sure that they won’t forget their actions.
Mini Mushroom

I found the tiniest mushroom whilst walking along the ditch this afternoon. It had pushed its way up, through the leaf litter, it’s tiny stem supporting it from an angle.
Roses Growing

The roses that grow beneath the living room window are pressed against the glass, for once untouched by the farmer’s chainsaws and clippers. For the first winter in years they have been left to grow wild, to move freely and continue their journey across the flower patch.
Frost

The frost is out. My breath forms clouds of steam in the cold, biting air and each movement causes a loud crunch from beneath my feet. The leaves that fell last month are now coated in layers of ice, the fractals glistening when the sunlight hits at the right angle. The white landscape makes me feel calm and each crunch rings out loudly, no other sounds present in the still air. It feels like I am the only person alive.
Scarborough Beach Huts
Whilst in Scarborough today I went along the seafront past the Spa and to this little row of beach huts. The bright colours of the doors caught my attention amongst the rather bleak landscape. The area looked abandoned, old weeds growing tall in front of the block and messy metal fencing hanging at awkward angles. The cold weather made me feel very out of place, the brightly painted doors and rolling waves behind me belonging in a much warmer, sunnier setting.

Planning
- Taken on a Lenovo Tab3 10 with an 8 MP lens and auto settings
My photography teacher and I came up with a plan for a shoot today. I’m going to Scarborough tomorrow and in my lesson, he helped me work out a route along the seafront where I can take photographs for my final project. I decided to do a shoot including the beach huts to develop some photographs I took last summer down in Dorset and to also try to get some videos of the sea and of plants moving in the wind.
Movement

I spent my photography lesson today editing my latest shoot, one of trees, the photographs taken with slow shutter speeds to capture the movement of the leaves and branches. Whilst shooting I was moving my camera during the exposure to enhance the movement. However, a couple of times I didn’t move the camera quite as much and some of the photographs that were the result look better than those with added movement.
