A Quick Word From Yours Truly


Hi, welcome to PJ's blog.

If you've checked out the "About Me" bit you'll see I'm a keen amateur photographer who enjoys all things digital. I mostly like photographing plants and landscapes as they are easy targets ;-) I used to work in Software which sounds more exciting than it is but am now officially a Snr. Project Planner having changed jobs after almost 25yrs in Software. I sometimes wish I could work in photography but that would probably become boring if I did it day in and day out. I used to sponsor a wolf called Luna until she sadly passed away, and love all things "wolfy". Anyhow enjoy the blog and hopefully I'll manage to keep it up to date with what I've been doing and my favourite things!

Second Place in Work's Nature Comp!

 

On our work's employee app recently was a call to enter photos into a Nature Comp which would be held across all the sites, the winner of each site going into the final. You had to pen a few words to accompany your image and I thought what better entry than one of my favs from Hurstwood Woods, a local haunt of mine since the onset of Covid-19 and having to try and stay local without a car!

This image has been tweaked in Lightroom, using clarity and texture, to give it a somewhat arty feel.

And lo and behold, I got 2nd place :-) Well chuffed as usually I'm lucky to place in the works comps, although I'm not convinced either that they were inundated with entries but hey let's not knock my obvious glory.

The winner was a little duckling flexing his wings in what looked like the rain - cuteness overload, no wonder it won!
