Walkabout photography

I read about something on the Internet which was designed to help develop your photographic eye. The technique was unnamed so I have called it
Walk about photography!

The object of Walk about photography is to develop your photographic eye. You do this by going for a walk and at random intervals stopping. When you stop you then have a take a photograph of something within 15 meters of where you have stopped.

I tried this today with my wife and she told me when to "stop". Take a look at the photos that I took on my adventure.

Cycle lane by Barking Park - this is two pictures put together in Photoshop as you can't get both the post and path in focus at the same time in one shot.

Here is a nice low depth of field shot of a tree trunk with moss on it.

This is a picture of a spike on a fence with it's paint peeling off. I thought this looked like a nice shot and the angle makes it look more dramatic.

Low depth of field shot of a brick wall.

This is a great shot. It's a picture of a pigeon feather that I stuck in the ground.

Pretty flowers

Hope you enjoyed looking at some of the pictures I took on my first walk about photography adventure. I hope you give it a try too.
