It's been a shit day weatherwise down here, but then a lot of the country has been suffering lately. Oh joy!
But for those of us who have our fingers relentlessly on the shutter doesn't mean you should hide your camera away, although I'll admit the motivation can be so far away you might as well be on the moon! Thankfully today, I didn't have time for getting down. I overslept and just about made it to our weekly walk and then caught up with an old work mate to give my deposit for the annual 'works do'.
But upon leaving her, it just tipped it down so had to sort out an image for today. In such conditions I like to take advantage of two things - one being contrast and the other the low light itself.
My first shot was one looking down from a multi-storey car park - below were an assortment of road markings in yellow and white on black which made a strong contrasty abstract. I really do get a kick out of everyday objects becoming art :)
My second was the one above. By the time I got home it was raining so hard, I decided to stay in my car and listen to the radio and see what quirky shots I could capture from inside the vehicle. I parked next to my neighbour's Ford Fiesta and got this shot - another abstract which also summed up the day, hence its inclusion here.
It was well worth the sit in the car - great abstract, that red gives it a very sinister look.
