Royal Gala July 12, 2004

What is it with the weather in the UK at the moment? Really makes me wonder what we've done to the world! It's the 12^th of July and I don't think I've seen the sun yet this month. It's grey, wet and miserable. Not the type of weather to be out with the camera. Instead I have been messing about in my digital dark-room with some "still lifes". For this I was inspired by this Shutterbug shot and a tutorial in this month's Photography Monthly magazine. More to come.

I love this. Really neat. Id be interested in the tutorial but the url you gave doesnt work. :-(

Hmmm, the link worked ok this morning. They must be having trouble their end.

I'll post another photo later today or tomorrow and explaing the basics of what the tutorial said. There's *one* key tip that makes all the difference.

Something to add? Do it here:
