Diptych for 08/08/08


Diptych for 08/08/08, originally uploaded by kcm76.

This week’s self-portrait: 52 Weeks 24/52 (2008 week 32).

Looking upwards from our lawn thru’ my ultra-wide lens: at left this lunchtime on a grey day and at right late this evening after nightfall when the sky was slightly clearer. Notice the horrid orange background of London street lamps in the night shot. Thought this might make an interesting comparison for a Flickr888 contribution as well as for my 52 Weeks self-portrait (bottom left).

I was just playing with the Mosaic Maker tool at Big Huge Labs and created this from the most recent 12 of my Flickr favourites. Thought it was worth keeping. It’s a super sample of some of the brilliant photography on Flickr: follow the links to each one; they’re well worth it.
