cold...getting colder..

So as if its not cold enough, snow is on its way.  Break out the snowboard time...and ducks,  watch those ice patches...

The sun sets on Sheffield....

So I've moved out of our place in Sheffield, but not before I took this photo of the sun setting in the Peak District.  My girlfriend and I have had so many lovely walks and adventures out in the Peaks and they will be memories that I will carry with me forever.  Im not saying that I wont ever go back, but for now, I'll be recharging my batteries and searching for a job from my parents home.  The views aren't quite the same down here in Oxfordshire, but I'm sure I'll find inspiration without particularly looking for it...

church...

I am not a church go-er, but whilst at a church in London, I couldn't help take a few pictures as the colours cascaded through the stained glass.  The first one was right up in the rafters and apart from putting a boarder around the picture, I haven't altered it in anyway.

This second picture was taken purely because of its simplicity...I love the window and the light on the large open wall.  Again, I have done very little to this photo, it was just how my iPhone captured the light which I thought, for once, was fairly impressive...

Londres

After recently visiting London, I thought I'd upload a couple of pictures.  Again, the sun was out and although bitterly cold, there were some wicked colours.  Again, I was using my iPhone and Hipstamatic, but it has been surprising me and producing some nice tones.  Love the contrast between the dark tree and the vivid blue morning sky in this first one...

Only in London would you see a shop like this.  I bet there is a little of everything....and not a lot at the same time! I love how retro it is, so thought I would share it on here....

Back home...

So we all know its been a little on the chilly side lately, but there was still a lot of sun and some fantastic colours to try and capture.  Here are a few pictures, starting with one that my mum took with my DLSR.  Funnily enough, she didn't really know how to use the camera and as the view-finding screen was switched off, she took the picture 'blind'.  Even so, I think it came out quite nice...

The Second photo was taken in my parents house, it was so warm in the living room that I thought I'd take a quick picture with my iPhone and Hipstamatic.  I particularly like the wooden elephant...
