Christmas has indeed come early! I have a new dSLR. A lovely Nikon 3200. Only problem is is that I've not really had chance to use it and this is the only photo I've taken with it and the shot is not very good - my fault, not the camera. Hopefully, I'll be back on track taking more pictures soon.
Unsurprisingly, this was taken in Northumberland. It's at the south end of Beadnell Bay.
I love black and white photography and I love taking pictures. Having dabbled with black and white processing in the dark room I succumbed to the ease of technology and began to use some simple apps on my Mac to convert my shots. I've now started using Nik Silver Effects 2. Using this blog I hope to share some of my favourite pictures and occasionally some thoughts on our not so black and white world. I may also occasionally publish a colour picture or two.

A bridge too far
A recent attempt at the three peaks in the Yorkshire Dales reminded me that I had this shot of the Ribble viaduct in my archives. A great walk in lovely surroundings.

Back again
In Seahouses on a cold autumn day and it's as amazing as always. The only thing that spoils this shot is the fact that my dSLR is not well and I'm getting what look like water marks appearing in my shots. Looks like my sensor needs cleaning or it's time for a new camera. Hopefully the latter as Christmas is nearly here!

You shall not pass
Continuing my fascination with straight lines that lead the eye. I like the way these bollards are there to prevent, I believe, cyclists from using this path, and appear to stand guard over the path behind.
Morning shadows
This was taken yesterday morning when the sun was just coming up. I had taken the dogs on their usual walk and thankfully had my camera with me. The shadows that the trees cast across the dirt road were amazing.

Poles apart
Today was a little dull and not much had inspired me on my walk today. However, I have always liked the way that telegraph poles and their lines create straight lines dissecting the sky and these two in particular caught my eye.
Door envy
It seems I am not the only one with an interest in photographing doors. A quick google image search revealed an absolute myriad of fantastic shots. Not sure why I never thought to look before. However, the only down side is I now have door envy as there were so many great shots. Anyway, here's my first door for November.
